Brown rice provides ten percent of the daily recommended protein, as well as fourteen percent of fiber, is contained in one cup serving of brown rice. It also contains very healthy amounts of selenium, magnesium and phosphorous. It also has niacin, vitamin B6 and thiamine. The manganese content in brown rice is also very high. Eighty-eight percent of what you need in one day is present in just one serving.

Manganese is the mineral that turns carbohydrates and proteins into energy, supports the nervous system, and produces cholesterol to generate sex hormones. Manganese also plays an integral role in protecting cells from free radical damage. It also helps to lower your risk for type 2 diabetes and other diseases.
