Japanese women have long understood and exploited the skin and health benefits of rice. This secret of beauty passed down from generation to generation is based on a simple and natural ingredient: rice. Over the centuries, they have been able to take advantage of the exceptional properties of this cereal to preserve a radiant, young and healthy skin.
The benefits of rice for the skin
Rice is a rich source of linoleic acid and squalene, two components with extraordinary skin properties. Squalene is a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from the harmful effects of the sun and stimulates the production of collagen. The latter plays a key role in the elasticity and firmness of the skin, thus delaying the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
In addition, rice is an excellent source of vitamin E, an essential nutrient for feeding and moisturising the skin. It also contains gamma-oryzanol, which is known for its protective properties on the heart and its ability to reduce cholesterol levels. These elements give rice a central role in skin care and general welfare.
