Single Polish Sona

What It Is:
Single polish Sona rice is a type of medium‑grain Sona Masoori rice that undergoes only one round of polishing, meaning just the outer layer of bran is removed. This leaves most of the rice’s natural nutrients and texture intact compared to fully polished white rice, which loses more bran and micronutrients.

Key Features:

• Light Processing: Only one layer of the bran is removed, so the rice retains more fibre and vitamins than heavily polished white rice.

• Nutrition: Because it has retained some of the bran layer, single polished rice is more nutritious and often lower in glycemic index than fully polished rice — a benefit for digestive comfort and blood sugar balance.
