Chansen Rice 3

Chansen Rice 3 is the Penglai rice variety with the highest known resistant starch (RS) content and the lowest glycemic index in Taiwan
Chansen rice 3 is a japonica rice variety bred from the rice Tainong 67 mutation library by the genetics and genome research laboratory of the department of agronomy of national Chung Hsing university. It has high resistant starch (RS > 3%) characteristics and low glycemic content. The resistant starch content of the index rice (4.29%) is significantly higher than that of Tainong No. 67 (0.61%), which is about 6 to 7 times higher, showing theoretical evidence that the amount of starch converted into glucose after cooking in Chansen rice 3 is lower. .

The japonica rice variety Chansen rice 3 is the Penglai rice with the lowest glycemic index currently known in Taiwan. Its polished rice has a low amount of starch converted into glucose after consumption. Its glycemic value is about 55, which has reached the standard of low glycemic index. Its main The mechanism is that white rice contains a high content (>4%) of resistant starch (RS), which is significantly higher than that of commercially available rice, such as Taijing 9, Tainan 11, and Tainong 67 (0.6~ 0.8%), which is about 6 to 7 times higher. This is the theoretical basis for the lower amount of starch converted into glucose when cooked into white rice. It is a low-glycemic rice variety with commercial potential.

Chansen Rice 3 is the Penglai rice variety with the highest known resistant starch (RS) content and the lowest glycemic index in Taiwan. Other varieties claiming to be low-sugar rice are all indica rice varieties, and the taste of the two is quite different. It can provide safe rice food for weight loss groups and those who are concerned about blood sugar metabolism.
