Leishan Red Rice

　　Leishan Red Rice is a specialty of Leishan County in Qiandongnan Prefecture, Guizhou Province. The colored rice grown by farmers in Leishan contains anthocyanins, which offer various health benefits such as delaying aging, promoting saliva production and refreshing the spirit, as well as nourishing and strengthening the body.

　　Red rice has a history of over 1,000 years; its outer skin is purplish-red and the inner part is red. It is of relatively good quality and high nutritional value, with a slight sour taste and mild flavor. It is a common grain crop in southern China. Leishan Red Rice is mainly produced at the foot of Leigong Mountain, a national forest park, at an altitude of 800–1,500 meters. It is purely wild-grown, using no chemical agents, and no substances are added during processing—making it truly authentic eco-friendly premium rice. Miao Red Rice is rich in nutrients and offers multiple physiological functions such as eliminating free radicals, delaying aging, improving iron-deficiency anemia, resisting stress reactions, and regulating immunity. It can also help prevent colon cancer.
