It can sometimes be increasingly difficult to keep track of which oils and fats actually work well in your body and which don't. Contrary to what we've been told throughout the years, fats are essential to our health and a necessary part of our diet. The tricky part comes when we don't eat the right kinds of fats and we run the risk of damaging our health. Here are some important ways in which rice bran oil can benefit internal health.
Neutral Tasting
One of the most important aspects of a healthy type of oil that needs to be explored is how it tastes. While coconut oil has seen a boom in recent years as a go-to oil for many different uses, some don't enjoy the taste of coconut oil as it is very strong and the coconut flavor is unmistakable. The great thing about rice bran oil is that it's fairly neutral in taste so it can be effectively used when cooking a myriad of items. The rice grain itself isn't very potent so its flavor won't clash with the foods you are cooking and it's quite versatile in its ability.
Full Of Healthy Fats
This is one of the oils that is actually good for you because of its healthy fat index. It has almost equal proportions of monounsaturated fats, saturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fats. This is important to note as its levels work well in the body to promote healthy fuel and energy levels. It also has no trans fats present in its fat composition which ensures you are ingesting the good fats as opposed to the harmful ones.
Lower Cholesterol
There is good cholesterol and there is bad cholesterol - some people aren't aware of the intrinsic differences between the two. One will help your heart and aid your organs while the other can increase your risk for heart disease, stroke or type 2 diabetes. Because rice bran oil is so heart friendly, it can actually help to control your cholesterol with the right amount of a powerful antioxidant called oryzanol. This oil is even recommended by the World Health Organization and the American Heart Association as being a great oil to improve serum levels of cholesterol.
A High Smoke Point
There are some oils that are unfortunately used incorrectly. Their general makeup lends to either a high, medium or low smoke point. A smoke point essentially examines whether or not the oil remains unchanged or oxidizes when it is exposed to a certain level of heat. Rice bran oil has a high smoke point which means that it can safely be used to deep fry and stir fry many of your favorite dishes without changing the healthy factors within the oil itself. This is something many people get wrong with olive oil. Although it's incredibly healthy, it should not be used on the stove and is best incorporated into dressings and on lukewarm pastas. Exposing it to too much heat changes it too significantly.
