Brown rice is considered a moderate-oxalate food. A wide range of foods, mostly of plant origin, contain various amounts of the natural compound oxalic acid. Your body metabolizes this compound into a form of salt called oxalate, which serves no known purpose in the human body. Consequently, more than 90 percent of oxalate is filtered out by the kidneys for urinary excretion.
Golden rice is a low-fat and low-sodium food; therefore it is especially beneficial for lowering high blood pressure and cholesterol. High levels of sodium, a mineral, can lead to fluid accumulation, edema (fluid retention) and a spike in blood volume. The excess fluid can increase your risk of high blood pressure.
