Nutritionists recommend that over half the calories we consume should come from complex carbohydrates. Rice protein, when compared to that of other grains, is considered one of the highest quality proteins. It has all eight of the essential amino acids, necessary building blocks for building strong muscles. Rice is also a good source of other essential nutrients- thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, phosphorus, iron, and potassium.
