Phytosterols and their derivatives: Structural diversity, distribution, metabolism, analysis, and health-promoting uses.
Robert A. Moreau,Laura Nyström,Bruce D. Whitaker,Jill K. Winkler-Moser,David J. Baer,Sarah K. Gebauer,Kevin B. Hicks +6 more
TL;DR: Phytosterol-enriched functional foods first appeared about twenty years ago and many clinical studies have confirmed the low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol-lowering properties of various types of phytosterols, which have provided insights to better understand the cholesterol- Lowering and other biological effects of plant sterols.

Brown Rice Versus White Rice: Nutritional Quality, Potential Health Benefits, Development of Food Products, and Preservation Technologies.
TL;DR: The objective of this work was to review the recent advances in research performed for purposes of evaluation of nutritional value and potential health benefits of the whole BR grain and present economic and environmental benefits for the consumption of whole BR instead of the polished or white rice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation, identification and antioxidant activity of bound phenolic compounds present in rice bran
TL;DR: An investigation of the chemical constituents of EtOAc extract has led to the isolation of a new compound, para-hydroxy methyl benzoate glucoside, which exhibited strong DPPH and ABTS(+) radical scavenging activities, followed by compounds 4 and 6.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contribution of Organically Grown Crops to Human Health
TL;DR: Consumption of organic food seems to be positive from a public health point of view, although the reasons are unclear, and synergistic effects between various constituents within the food are likely.

Phytochemical profile of a Japanese black–purple rice
Gema Pereira-Caro,Shin Watanabe,Alan Crozier,Tatsuhito Fujimura,Takao Yokota,Hiroshi Ashihara,Hiroshi Ashihara +6 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the black-purple rice in the dehulled form in which it is consumed by humans contains a rich heterogeneous mixture of phytochemicals which may provide a basis for the potential health benefits, and highlights the possible use of the rice as functional food.

Antioxidant Activity of Tocopherols, Tocotrienols, and γ-Oryzanol Components from Rice Bran against Cholesterol Oxidation Accelerated by 2,2‘-Azobis(2-methylpropionamidine) Dihydrochloride†
Zhimin Xu,N Hua,J. S. Godber +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the antioxidant activities of vitamin E (α-tocopherol, α-tocotrienol, γ-tocoperol, and γ-, O-Znol components (cycloartenyl ferulate, 24-methylenecycloartanyl ferulate and campesteryl ferulates) purified from rice bran were investigated in a cholesterol oxidation system accelerated by 2,2‘-azobis(2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride.

Organic vs. conventional agriculture: knowledge, power and innovation in the food chain
Kevin Morgan,Jonathan Murdoch +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine the distribution of economic knowledge within two food chains: the conventional food chain, which relies on intensive inputs into the food production process, and thus tends to distribute knowledge towards input suppliers, and the organic food supply chain which distributes knowledge back towards the farm as farmers must relocalise their understandings of the production process.

Purification and identification of components of gamma-oryzanol in rice bran Oil.
Zhimin Xu,J. S. Godber +1 more
TL;DR: High-purity gamma-oryzanol was obtained from crude rice bran oil using a normal-phase preparative scale HPLC and identification was accomplished using GC/MS with an electron impact mass spectrum after components were transformed into trimethylsilyl ether derivatives.

Triterpene alcohol and sterol ferulates from rice bran and their anti-inflammatory effects.
Toshihiro Akihisa,Ken Yasukawa,Miho Yamaura,Motohiko Ukiya,Yumiko Kimura,Naoto Shimizu,Koichi Arai +6 more
TL;DR: Six novel feruloyl esters of triterpene alcohols and sterols, besides five known trans-ferulates, showed marked inhibitory activity against 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced inflammation in mice, and eight free sterols examined showed weaker activity than their corresponding ferulates.

Comparison of chemical compositions and bioactive compounds of germinated rough rice and brown rice
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared changes in chemical compositions and bioactive compounds of Germinated rough rice and ungerminated brown rice and found that the most significant changes were observed in γ-aminobutyric acid, glycine, lysine and leucine, whereas there was no significant difference in the levels of crude fat, carbohydrate and ash.
