GABA - Sprouted Brown Rice 2.0kg (4.4 LB) bag

I stumbled upon GABA rice quite by accident. I was in an Asian food market and saw it on the shelf next to a myriad of other brown rice brands. This one boasts all sorts of additional health benefits, due to the Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content. This is a neurotransmitter inhibitor that helps manage stress, reduce anxiety, and improve sleep quality. I do feel relaxed after eating it. But what I appreciate most is the flavor. The Amazon price here is reasonable (2-pack).

Delicious. Perfect texture, and clean taste. Plus it's a great source of vitamins!

Little pricey but well worth it. Although I absolutely love a huge variety of rice, I’ve never liked the so-called (tan) ‘brown’ rice until I tried this one. I have a daughter that only eats the so-called (tan) ‘brown’ rice, so I sent her some after I discovered it. She’s hooked on it as well. Now it’s the only rice she eats. She’s also started using it for sushi, though I wouldn’t take it that far. It is good though.

Very good rice, but how do you know if you're getting all the health benefits? Just looks like brown rice to me, but it tastes good.

My uncle introduced me to this rice. It's so good. Honestly, I don't follow the cooking instructions to a T *other than* the soaking part- the soaking is what increases the GABA content. So I make sure to soak it, but cooking it doesn't take the full length of time that the instructions state. Though I also like rice with more "bite" to it. I can eat a large serving of this rice with zero "carb crash," too, which is a huge plus. Reheats great, too.

I liked the rice. The taste was really good. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to cook more than a few servings before docs put me on an elimination diet to discover what foods I am sensitive to; so don’t know if it lowers b/p as it claims to do. I have a rice cooker; so used it to cook the rice…It is stickier than regular rice brown rice (and that is with multiple rinsings before cooking).

My Zojirushi rice cooker has a GABA setting. I make high fiber veggie rice for my wife, who uses a wheelchair. I include Black rice (risotto nero) and Quinoa, and like to add Japanese pumpkin and taro, sometimes scallions, ginger, and Chinese 5-spice mix. (I studied the brain, and know what GABA means. On this setting, the rice cooks for about 2 hours)

So delicious! Simple 2 to 1 ratio of water to rice. We soak for 30min, boil with butter & salt, then let simmer for 35min & serve. Our favorite serving suggestion is with any style chicken, gravy & a veggie. Even the little ones enjoy Gaba Brown Rice.
