A2Z Rice Bran and Understanding ORAC Values

Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) measures the antioxidant levels of a

substance. A high ORAC score means the substance is high in antioxidants.

Antioxidants are substances that have the ability to neutralize free radicals in

the body. Free radicals damage cells which accelerates aging. Serving per

serving, A2Z Rice Bran's ORAC value surpasses that of other antioxidant-rich

fruits, including blueberries and pomegranates. Compared to 28 types of other

well known antioxidant-rich food A2Z Rice Bran has the highest ORAC score.

Regardless of the ORAC Value scale used, as in this chart below using the Total

Antioxidant Capacity umol TE/G scale, each 12g serving is equivalent to 2,447

ORAC value.
