Abstract: Rice bran oil(RBO), deduced from the external layer of rice grains, has garnered significant attention as a functional food oil due to its favorable nutritive profile and health benefits. Rich in unsaturated fats, vitamin E( tocopherols and tocotrienols), phytosterols like oryzanol, and other bioactive composites, RBO has demonstrated colorful health-promoting parcels. Recent studies highlight its cardiovascular benefits, including cholesterol-lowering goods, and its implicit in reducing the threat of heart complaints ( Kaur& Shukla, 2023). also, the oil’s antioxidant and anti--inflammatory parcels are linked to its part in precluding habitual conditions similar to cancer, obesity, and arthritis( Patel& Soni, 2022). RBO also serves as a beneficial component for skin and hair care, owing to its moisturizing and nutritional goods( Zhang, Li, & Wei, 2021). Its high smoke point and neutral flavor make it an ideal choice for culinary operations, particularly in high-heat cuisine. Beyond food, RBO finds use in cosmetics, medicinals, and as an implicit biofuel source. still, challenges similar to oxidative stability, shelf life, and consumer mindfulness remain. This review synthesizes the rearmost exploration of rice bran oil’s nutritive composition, health benefits, culinary uses, and industrial applications, emphasizing its eventuality in global food systems. Future exploration should concentrate on perfecting stability,exploring new operations, and enhancing consumer education on its health benefits.
