<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>
Rice water is the suspension of starch obtained by draining boiled rice or by boiling rice until it completely dissolves into the water. It may be used as a weak gruel for invalids.[1] It is especially effective in the treatment of diarrhea such as that arising in cholera or gastroenteritis.[2][3]
Kanjivellam is Malayalam word for the water (vellam) drained from boiled rice (kanji).[4]
Usage
Rice water is also a milky liquid left after washing rice which can used in taking care of skin and hair. Rice water has vitamin B, C, E, and minerals, which help in tightening skin and shrinkage of open pores on face. It also promotes skin cell growth, stimulates blood flow, and slows down the aging process. (SOURCE?)
Rice water has been the secret to beautiful hair for the Yao ethnic minority in southern China, who have traditionally used it as natural shampoo to wash their long hair, for centuries[5]
