“A miracle of the heart” and “new power of the beauty industry” are just some of the titles that the scientific community has given to Gamma Oryzanol – the most commonly found nutrient in rice bran. This comes from the fact that this particular nutrient has a lot of health benefits, especially for protecting heart health and anti-aging properties.

During the 2018 International Rice Oil Conference, the nutrient Gamma Oryzanol was a topic that was regularly discussed in reports. Accordingly, professors and doctors of cardiology have affirmed that this is a golden nutrient within rice oil, playing a key role in protecting cardiovascular health. Specifically, Gamma Oryzanol has the ability to prevent absorption of bad cholesterol and prevent heart disease.

Mr. Peh Ping Teik, Chairman of the International Rice Oil Association, said, “Gamma Oryzanol in rice oil is extracted from fresh rice bran within 6 hours of being separated from the rice husk. It is this precious nutrient, that has superior benefits for cardiovascular health, that makes rice oil premium and special.”

Gamma Oryzanol helps to prevent atherosclerosis and heart disease. At the 2018 International Rice Oil Conference, more than 20 reports by experts from 5 continents also confirmed that the regular use of rice oil in a scientifically balanced diet, combined with a healthy lifestyle, can prevent many cardiovascular diseases.

Many clinical studies around the world have also confirmed that Gamma Oryzanol has the ability to prevent intestinal absorption of cholesterol from food and cholesterol secreted by the liver, which is instead excreted from the body. Cardiovascular experts around the world also recommend that people with excess cholesterol should eat food containing Gamma Oryzanol as a natural way to bring cholesterol down to normal levels, thus preventing the risk of cardiovascular disease. This is a simple and safe measure and easy to implement.

Prof. Dr. Pham Gia Khai – Chairman of Vietnam Heart Association, said that excess levels of cholesterol is classified as the leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease and every study conducted has shown that a reduction in excess cholesterol will reduce the mortality rate due to coronary artery disease by 30 percent. Treatment of excess cholesterol in the blood will help limit the formation and progression of plaque, therefore, reducing complications and deaths from cardiovascular disease.

In addition, Gamma Oryzanol is a powerful antioxidant. Scientists from Japan’s Hamamatsu Pharmacy University and Kuwait University have said that the results from the research have surprised many people. It is said that Gamma Oryzanol is four times more effective than Vitamin E as an antioxidant.

At present, few countries in the world are able to produce pure rice bran oil with Gamma Oryzanol inside. Vietnam is proud to be among those few. With the successful production of pure rice bran oil, rich in Gamma Oryzanol and made from raw materials of the ripe and golden rice fields of the Mekong Delta, Vietnamese people now have the best way to take care of their health.
