    Solution

    Unpolished rice contains lots of fibre, which is due to the presence of bran, germ, and endosperm . When the grain is processed, the endosperm is left. The bran contains 80 percent of minerals and the germ contains vitamin E, minerals, unsaturated fats, antioxidants, and phytochemicals.
