"Rice Bran Supplementation & Environmental Enteric Dysfunction in Mali" lecture with Elizabeth Ryan
I missed this one, but it summarizes things that are going on with stabilized rice bran. Elizabeth Ryan(Colorado State U) was given a million form Bill Gates a few years back for continuing studies on rice bran.
First her latest study from April that i did post.>>>

Elizabeth Ryan is an assistant professor of Toxicology in the Department of Environmental and Radiological Health Sciences located in the College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at CSU and with the Colorado School of Public Health.
Dr. Ryan’s lecture emphasizes an ongoing project in Malian children that builds upon collaborative research from agriculture-nutrition, animals, and human studies. She will share the multidisciplinary team strategies for addressing complex problems of malnutrition and diarrheal disease, including rice agriculture, food processing, food safety, nutrition, as well as maternal and child health sectors.
Rice feeds more than half of humanity and is a rapidly growing agricultural system in some African countries, including Mali. Emerging awareness exists regarding health benefits of brown rice compared to white rice, yet major gaps in our knowledge still exist for her intentional focus on rice bran. Rice bran is a globally accessible and underutilized food ingredient with many beneficial nutrients, which promote health; and animal studies have shown its potential to reduce both infectious and chronic diseases.
Dr. Ryan’s “Rice Bran Supplementation Feasibility Study” looks at using heat-stabilized rice bran as a dietary supplementation in weaning infants, who are susceptible to diarrheal infections. Additionally, her study seeks to learn whether or not rice bran consumption affects the stool microbiota and production of health-promoting metabolites. This study will set the stage for larger trials that can aim to decrease the burden of diarrheal diseases affecting infants and children.
She is also developing partnerships in other parts of Africa and Asia to align with water, hygiene and sanitation programs, antimicrobial bacteria surveillance in the environment, and ensuring interdisciplinary inclusion of health professionals and community educators that will embrace culturally sensitive processes and social enterprise.
Dr. Ryan is always looking for distinct skills and expertise that are needed to advance the sustainable inclusion of rice bran into our food supply in a safe, affordable and meaningful manner that contributes to improved health across the lifespan.
