Karunkuruvai Rice

Karunkuruvai Rice – Traditional Siddha Medicine Rice of Tamil Nadu

Product Description

Karunkuruvai Rice is a rare and ancient blackish-red rice variety cultivated in Tamil Nadu, mainly during the Kuruvai season (short-term crop). This heritage grain holds a special place in Siddha and Ayurvedic medicine for its therapeutic properties and is often associated with treatments for chronic ailments.

Naturally rich in iron, zinc, antioxidants, and fiber, Karunkuruvai Rice is believed to purify the blood, strengthen immunity, and rejuvenate the body. Its distinct dark color reflects its high anthocyanin and antioxidant content, making it a true superfood grain. Traditionally consumed as kanji (porridge), dosai, idli, and herbal preparations, it is a highly nutritious alternative to modern polished rice.
