Helping World Hunger: International Food Programs

Millions of pregnant and lactating women and young children suffer from malnutrition. In some developing countries, malnutrition rates have soared as high as 48%. In response to this epidemic NutraCea created a series nutrient-dense products derived from rice bran that are designed to help world hunger by helping to reverse malnutrition.

School Food Programs

Of the many projects on world hunger is NutraCea's RiceAde™, a specially formulated drink that has been distributed in developing-nation schools. RiceAde™ has been determined to help malnourished children achieve weight gain and do better in school.

Disaster Relief

When crises occurs, and food and water supplies are low or depleted, specially formulated, highly nutritious, pre-packaged food products like NutraCea's NutraSolve provide essential vitamin intake, oral rehydration, and high-calorie and protein content to replace a meal. Pre-packaged, NutraSolve requires no potable water, and each serving has a shelf life of up to 1 year.

Oral Rehydration

During droughts and other disasters, maintaining or restoring hydration and replenishing electrolytes are critical to human survival. NutraCea has derived from rice bran specially formulated, pre-packed foods and beverages designed to counter the effects of diarrhea, and bolster electrolyte levels.
