Rice, brown, wholegrain, raw

Brown wholegrain rice is a cereal grain that retains its bran and germ layers. The figures here describe raw, uncooked rice. It mainly provides carbohydrate, with 77g per 100g, alongside 7.7g of protein and 3g of fibre. It also provides minerals, including 116mg of magnesium per 100g.

Carbohydrate is a source of energy, while fibre helps support normal bowel function. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle and nerve function. Raw rice absorbs water during cooking, so the nutrient amounts per weight of cooked rice will differ from those shown here. The raw rice contains only trace amounts of salt; salt added during cooking or in sauces will change this. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
