High technology application in producing organic brown rice products

Ms. Hoang Thi Thuy Linh (Deputy General Director of DBFOOD Company, Phuc Yen City, Vinh Phuc Province) has invested in thorough research, creating a product line from organic brown rice with high nutritional content "made in Vietnam", supporting health care for everyone, especially cancer and diabetes patients.

"The day my mother-in-law received the news that she had cancer when she had just turned 58 was a big shock to the family, but it was also the motivation for us to research a line of nutritional support products to help my mother and cancer patients in general recover their health. During the treatment process, the radiation burned away beneficial intestinal bacteria, making it difficult for my mother to eat. Feeling sorry for my mother, I researched and found that brown rice was a benign product. I tried to boil it into porridge and get water for my mother to drink. But brown rice alone was not enough to provide nutrients, so I came up with the idea of ​​combining brown rice with other nutritious grains," Ms. Thuy Linh recalls the idea of ​​starting her startup project.

This idea was supported by her father-in-law. As a passionate researcher, he tried it himself many times, then sought out nutritionists and connected with a French professor and some Vietnamese rice experts to learn how to separate the oil and combine the seeds so that they inhibit each other to create natural preservatives, without the need for additional flavors or additives.

Through dozens of experiments, Thuy Linh and her father created the first complete product, brown rice milk combined with nuts with high nutritional content. This milk was used by her mother-in-law, was effective, and many other patients also wanted to use it. Therefore, Hoang Thi Thuy Linh's family decided to apply high technology to production and invest in thorough research to produce an exclusive brown rice milk production formula, creating a product line with high nutritional content, supporting health care for everyone, especially cancer and diabetes patients.

The product is a combination of exclusive organic brown rice production technology and nano extraction technology of precious Vietnamese medicinal active ingredients.

Affirming the value of Vietnamese products

In 2019, DBFOOD Food Joint Stock Company was established. With the first product line being milk powder, milk using traditional Vietnamese ingredients such as organic brown rice, macadamia nuts, sachi, walnuts, cashews, almonds... along with some precious medicinal herbs such as cordyceps, golden flower tea, lily flowers, moringa leaves...

The product is a combination of exclusive organic brown rice production technology and nano-extraction technology of precious medicinal active ingredients. Organic brown rice milk does not use preservatives or flavorings but also uses standard input materials, contributing to the preservation and promotion of native resources of Vinh Phuc province.

From the idea to the process of forming and developing the product, Ms. Thuy Linh said that DBFOOD has gone through many ups and downs and failures, but she is still determined to choose the path of a technology enterprise that produces and researches to create its own exclusive production technology. The company is bringing to the market 3 main product lines: organic brown rice milk powder for all ages; organic brown rice milk powder combined with nano precious medicinal compounds such as Cucumin, golden flower tea, green banana resistant starch, spirulina; Organic brown rice tea combined with brown rice tea with lily flowers, Cordyceps, and Moringa leaves.
