11. A composition comprising (a) a rice bran extract having between about 3% and about 9% (w/w) total phosphorous content and (b) a natural curing agent comprising a nitrite source, wherein the rice bran extract is present in a sufficient concentration such that a treatment of a meat product or a seafood product with the rice bran extract improves water retention in the meat produce or the seafood product.

12. The composition of claim 11 comprising from about 45% (w/w) to about 70% (w/w) rice bran extract, from about 10% (w/w) to about 30% (w/w) nitrite source, and from about 1% (w/w) to about 40% (w/w) sea salt.
