*By-product from rice milling process, also used as animal feed. Sayre et al.[1, 2] reported that rice bran has no adverse effects on animal health and on nutritional quality of feeds.Additionally, a number of studies revealed rice bran possesses nutrients including dietary fiber and antioxidants [3] and some of its bioactive compounds were found to show positive effects on animal and human health [4, 5]. Recently, rice bran has been studied and used as ingredients in various functional food products [6-9].

**By-product from cassava-starch production. It also has been used as a food ingredient in gluten-free noodle product and in a fermentation process [10, 11].

To the authors knowledge there is no reported safety issue concerning rice bran or cassava pulp.
