Wild Rice
One of the most important benefits you can derive from wild rice come from the impressive level of antioxidants. Wild rice contains 20-30 times more antioxidants than white rice. Antioxidants neutralize toxins, the dangerous byproducts of cellular metabolism that can cause healthy cells to mutate or turn cancerous and bring on aging. This includes the toxins that accumulate in the skin and can contribute to signs of aging, such as wrinkles, age spots, and slower healing of blemishes. This is also true for the ocular cells, and the antioxidants found in wild rice can prevent macular degeneration and the onset of cataracts.
