I assume the Fat Flush plan is the one in three defined parts, designed to detoxify the body and kick start the metabolism. My concern with this plan would be the very low calorie intake which is recommended, and the possibility that it gives way to yo-yo dieting. Anyway, that's just my sixpence!! Hi CD,

I am careful about what I eat however, I eat meat, cheese etc-I follow the Fat Flush plan which is like Atkins and I can keep my weight in check.

There is a lot of info on the internet on the health benefits. I just like using it to cook at high temperatures. I have been using rice oil for 3 years now and my cholesterol is now lower.

Yes I'm aware that it's a source of antioxidants, I've also read that rice bran oil reduces LDL cholesterol without reducing beneficial HDL - it is thought that oryzanol is the key element here. Here are two interesting studies on the subject: http://www.ajcn.org/cgi/content/abstract/72/6/1510 http://atvb.ahajournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/14/4/549 Do you use rice bran oil yourself?

Plus, rice oil has gamma-oryzanol which is a more powerful antioxidant than vitamin E which is not found in any other oil.
