About this supplement
Brown Rice Protein Concentrate (70-80% protein) is a plant-based protein powder derived from whole grain brown rice (Oryza sativa). It is produced by removing most of the carbohydrates and fats, concentrating the protein content. This form typically contains 70-80% protein by weight, with the remaining composition consisting of fiber, minerals, and some residual carbohydrates. It is considered a complete protein as it contains all nine essential amino acids, though its lysine content is relatively lower compared to animal proteins. It is hypoallergenic, gluten-free, and easily digestible, making it suitable for individuals with dietary restrictions or sensitivities to dairy, soy, or wheat proteins.

Physical properties
Fine, light tan to beige powder with a mild, slightly nutty flavor. Typically soluble or dispersible in water and other liquids, though may require shaking or blending. Hygroscopic (can absorb moisture).
How it’s made
Produced by milling brown rice to separate starch and fiber from protein. The protein is typically extracted using enzymatic or alkaline treatments, followed by filtration, concentration, and spray-drying to create a powder. The process removes most carbohydrates and fats, yielding a concentrate with 70-80% protein content.
