I think its the rice bran, and not polished/white rice, that's mentioned in this article. Partially polished rice has a reddish tinge, with clear deep brown streaks on each grain.

What kind do you use?

Look at the printed sack, the label on top and the smaller print below the picture of the plant, isn't it contradictory?

Brown rice looks like this:

There is rice, and then there is rice with nutrients. Depending on what rice you have been consuming your diet may be improved by taking rice out of your diet.

Tip from an ole timey pediatrician...My son's cholesterol was out of control at age 7. Genetic factors we think since he was adopted--but the pediatrician said to add oat bran to his diet.(we used Hodgkins Mill brand.) I added a small handful to anything that would work with it, meatloaf, breadcrumb breading, etc. It worked like a charm.

"I love rice....and my cholesterol is still too high. I can only imagine what it would be if I didn't eat rice."

First, there is zero rice bran oil in rice (Unless you're eating whole grain rice, not the white or brown stuff)

Second, For better information on cholestral, go to the Health Sciences Institute forum, and get educated. By trying to lower your cholestral, you could do yourself much harm.
