Khyati's Health-O-Meter Says:

Brown rice has hulls and brans which provide ''natural wholeness" to the grain and are rich in proteins, thiamine, calcium, magnesium, fiber, and potassium. It is high in fiber, acts as an anti-oxidant and has a low glycemic index. The cereal- pulse combination (3:1) offers a full set of amino acids. Lysine is absent in the cereal and methionine is absent in the pulse hence mixing the two is beneficial and this mix becomes a complete protein source. Also adding lemon enhances iron absorption.

  • Brown pressed rice flakes - 2 tbsp(30g)
  • Moong (sprouted) - 10g
