Befach Rice vs Brown Rice: Which One Wins?
Share
Brown rice is often praised as the healthier alternative to white rice thanks to its fiber and micronutrient content. But at Befach, we’ve worked to develop rice that is lab‑tested for low Glycemic Index (GI), fortified with Folic Acid, Vitamin B12, and Iron, and compliant with FSSAI standards. So, which rice should win a spot on your plate? Let’s unpack the comparison.
Nutrition Face‑Off
| Feature | Brown Rice | Befach Rice |
|---|---|---|
| Fiber Content | High (bran layer retained) | Moderate (but fortified with micronutrients) |
| Glycemic Index | Medium (variety & cooking dependent) | Low GI (lab‑tested & certified) |
| Fortification | Usually not fortified | Fortified with Folic Acid, Iron, B12 |
| Digestibility | Harder to digest for children/elders | Soft texture, family‑friendly |
| Taste & Cooking | Nutty flavor, longer cook time | Similar to regular white rice but healthier |
| Compliance | No specific standardization | FSSAI‑compliant, tested for safety |

- Brown Rice – Great for those with higher fiber needs who enjoy denser textures.
