counts for carrying oxygen and the list goes like copper, carotene, and
anthocyanin and several important vitamins

The moisture content found in the present study is well within safe limits
and high percent carbohydrates content of the rice varieties signifies high
level of starch and its show that rice is a good source of energy .
The rice protein is superior because of its unique composition of
essential amino acids. The highest amount of protein was found in Brown
Rice.
This work has revealed that the Traditional rice contains some
properties to cure the breast cancer cell without any side effects .
Due to the natural Antioxidant and Nutritional properties we don’t
want to add any artificial supplements to the diet
Hence, the present study is intended to investigate the nutrients,
phytochemicals of pigmented traditional rice varieties of Tamil Nadu and
find a sustainable solution for Breast cancer for young women generations
towards smart health management. It works with underlining principle,”
Food as a Medicine ˝ .
