Brown rice oil in Vietnam - "gold mine" for cardiovascular health

The report of HTV 60s, which was broadcast on the evening of April 16, raised the question: "Are Vietnamese people wasting the "gold mine" of health?"

Brown rice oil is increasingly used widely in the world.

The trend of using brown rice oil to care for cardiovascular health is gaining attention in many places around the world and has been proven effective and recommended for daily use by a series of prestigious health organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO), American Heart Association, New Zealand...

On the other hand, the brown rice oil industry is expected to achieve a spectacular growth of nearly 70% (growing from 7.4 billion USD in 2023 to 12.4 billion USD in 2030, according to Market Research Future).

Sharing about the uses of brown rice oil, Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Thi Minh Tu - Head of the Department of Food Technology, Hanoi University of Science and Technology said: "The reason why brown rice oil is valuable is because this oil is extracted from the bran layer - which contains 70-80% of the nutrients of brown rice grains, including a very rich nutrient Gamma Oryzanol which is beneficial for cardiovascular health".

Associate Professor, Dr. Minh Tu likens brown rice oil to a "gold mine" for health, because the nutrient Gamma Oryzanol not only helps protect cardiovascular health, but also has the ability to support antioxidant 4 times stronger than vitamin E, helping to effectively prevent the formation of free radicals (the cause of more than 60 other dangerous diseases).

Cardiologist, Dr. Pham Tran Linh, Vietnam Cardiology Association explains: Gamma Oryzanol in brown rice oil has the effect of reducing bad cholesterol, contributing to preventing the formation of atherosclerotic plaque in the blood vessel wall. This is the cause of complications such as stroke, myocardial infarction and some other cardiovascular diseases.

Dr. Pham Tran Linh, Vietnam Cardiology Association, analyzes the mechanism of Gamma Oryzanol with the cardiovascular system.

How to exploit the "gold mine" of heart health?

Sharing about the popularity of brown rice oil in the "cherry blossom country", Ms. Reina Abe (a Japanese housewife living in Ho Chi Minh City) said that in Japan, brown rice oil is called "cooking oil for the heart" by many cardiologists and has been used by many families for many years thanks to its wonderful benefits for the heart.

When coming to Vietnam, Ms. Reina Abe was very happy to find 100% pure brown rice oil with good quality and reasonable price. Ms. Reina Abe added that the price of brown rice oil in Japan, converted into Vietnamese currency, fluctuates between 200,000 - 250,000 VND, nearly 3 times higher than the price of brown rice oil purchased in Vietnam.

In fact, people in other countries are paying a much higher price to use this oil, but many Vietnamese people have not yet realized the advantages of brown rice oil in taking care of cardiovascular health.

Ms. Reina Abe (Japan) and many Vietnamese consumers trust and use Simply brown rice oil in daily cooking to protect cardiovascular health.

To effectively exploit the "gold mine" of cardiovascular health, Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Thi Minh Tu noted that consumers should choose brown rice oil from reputable manufacturers with extensive experience and investment in advanced technology in the production process. Because in reality, to successfully produce brown rice oil and retain the maximum nutritional content from brown rice grains requires a modern, rigorous extraction and refining process.

Dr. Pham Tran Linh recommends that consumers pay attention to choosing brown rice oil from reputable brands. 100% pure brown rice oil has a dark yellow color, darker than some other types of oil because this is a natural oil color, reflecting the characteristic color of brown rice bran - the raw material used to extract this type of oil.

With proven uses and increasingly widespread use, plus the advantage of reasonable price from raw materials and analysis of experts mentioned above, it shows that brown rice oil is a "gold mine" for cardiovascular health that Vietnamese people should not ignore.
