What is GABA brown rice?
This is not a new variety of brown rice, but a newly discovered way of cooking brown rice to activate it and increase natural occurring gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), an amino acid in brown rice believed to have health giving properties such as lowering blood pressure, improving kidney function and relieving stress. The brown rice is “activated” by soaking the rice at 104 °F for 2 hours before the actual cooking begins.
