Food For Life Launches Gluten-Free Black Rice Tortillas

Food for Life, makers of Ezekiel 4:9® sprouted grain breads and all-natural baked goods, is introducing new Gluten-Free Black Rice Tortillas to its lineup.

Black rice is a true super grain loaded with vitamins, minerals and natural antioxidants. In fact, black rice rivals and often exceeds some of the most notable antioxidant rich foods. Its dark purple color is primarily due to its anthocyanin content—the same antioxidant found in blueberries, blackberries, dark cherries and açai. Plus, black rice is loaded with natural fiber, making it a great healthy alternative to traditional flour tortillas.

Food for Life’s Black Rice Tortillas are a 100% vegan and gluten-free, making them a great nutrient-dense option for those with certain dietary restrictions. Like all Food for Life products, Exotic Black Rice Tortillas are free of conditioners, additives, artificial flavors, colors and preservatives. Each tortilla contains 4g of protein, 2g of fiber and 0g sugar.

“Interestingly, black rice was reserved exclusively for Chinese Emperors in ancient times,” says Gary Torres, a Food for Life company principal. “Now everyone can enjoy the unique color, flavor and health benefits of this exotic super grain.”

Food for Life’s Black Rice Tortillas come six to a package and are available in the cooler aisle at natural food stores and better supermarkets across the U.S. For more information or for a list of where to buy, please visit http://www.foodforlife.com.
