The Rice Diet PlanWeight Loss: The Rice Diet, a Cholesterol Reducing Diet Supposedly, the Rice Diet Plan reduces cholesterol, blood pressure, heart size, abnormal blood sugar, and oh yes- weight! The Rice Diet Plan lays claim to decreasing the need for medications for certain health problems, sometimes eliminating the need for such medications. The Rice Diet Plan was developed by the folks at Duke University - although other clinics are springing up offering weight loss 'the rice way'. The diet was originally intended as a treatment for diabetes (abnormal blood sugar), hypertension (high blood pressure), and obesity. The Rice Diet is a medically supervised diet program which touts quick results. - Please note that some people are allergic to rice, which may cause complications with the diet plan. - The Rice Diet Plan is a fad diet plan. - Fresh fruits, vegetables, grains, fish and legumes are also an important part of the Rice Diet Plan. - The diet plan is low in fat, and low in sodium content. - Although the name 'Rice Diet' is used to define the diet, it is not based on a 'rice' as being the bull's eye of the diet. Diet Bites feels that any plan requiring medical supervision is a 'stop, look, and listen' event. Perhaps the chief reason that medical supervision is required is to ensure that dieters don't cheat. If that is the case, a lock on the pantry would be a lot cheaper. Rice Diet Plan Analysis - Diet Plan does not meet most standards necessary for a healthy diet. - Diet Plan is not heart-healthy or excellent for weight loss. - Diet plan contains healthy foods but the overall plan is nutsy coo-coo. A total strike out. We feel that the Rice Diet Plan should not be taken seriously by anyone searching for a viable, healthy SAFE diet plan.
