According to their website, the diet lessens the chance of diabetes, obesity, heart disease, hypertension, renal illness and other ailments. There is actually a Rice Diet Clinic in Durham, North Carolina supervised by a staff of doctors, dietitians and nurses.
Anyone interested in following the program without checking into the residential program can invest in a copy of The Rice Diet Solution.
Through the book, readers learn how to rely on nutrition, exercise, meditation, yoga and journaling to shed those extra pounds. There are also a numerous amount of resources to improve physical and emotional health. In addition, the book is full of places to improve one's physical and emotional health. In addition, there is an online forum where followers of The Rice Diet can get additional support.
Ironically, the diet does not have a lot to do with rice at all. During Phase I of the 12-week program, dieters dine on grains and fruits. They recommend you do not try this at home. In Phase 2, you are allowed to consume vegetables, beans and other carbohydrates, as well as the grains and fruits.

Being in Korea has taught me there are more ways to prepare rice than boiling it. and more types of rice than the long grain most of us are used to. "Poccum Bap" (fried rice patty" and "Kim Bap" (julianne veggies and meat rolled in rice and then wraped in seaweed, something like sushi) are great. It's just a different way of eating.
