Rice is a rich source of linoleic acids and squalene, a powerful antioxidant that promotes the collagen production in the skin. It is a substance that keeps skin from wrinkling. In addition, squalene protects the skin from sun damage. A large amount of vitamin E and gamma-oryzanol are present in rice as well, which protects heart health and lowers cholesterol.
Rice has astonishing effects in skin rejuvenation and not many people know this, except the Japanese.
