RiceX

The RiceX Company was a specialized biotechnology and nutraceutical firm focused on the stabilization and processing of rice bran. The company developed proprietary technology to prevent the rapid enzymatic degradation of rice bran, transforming it into a shelf-stable, nutrient-rich ingredient for the functional food and dietary supplement markets. Its products, such as RiceX Solubles and RiceX Fiber Complex, were marketed for their potential benefits in managing cardiovascular health and blood glucose levels. In 2005, the company merged with NutraCea, which later became RiceBran Technologies, to consolidate their positions in the stabilized rice bran industry.
