Re: Brown rice better than white?
I have eaten brown rice most of my life. Recently I changed to eating more fruits for energy. Brown rice has high levels of arsenic and prevents many vitamins and nutrients from being absorbed. I think white rice is not so good due to it being so pasty and possibly clogging up the colon.

Re: Brown rice better than white?
the weston price foundation found that people eating refined grains had less tooth decay
refining removes the fibre, oils, phytic acid, impurities, so refined white rice is better.

Can you elaborate for us your spam posting instead?
I understand that you want to be a renegade or something, and prove everything otherwise, or are just desperate?

Re: Brown rice better than white?
Brown rice is simply white rice that has not had the bran covering the rice grains removed. Removing the bran is done so that the rice is fluffier and cooks faster. Since brown rice still has the bran intact, it is a much better source of fiber. In fact a cup of brown rice has 3.5 grams of fiber while white rice has less than one gram of fiber.
We all need from 15 to 25 grams of fiber in our diet every day.
Another benefit from eating brown rice is caused by the fiber slowing down the absorption of carbohydrates. This will help tame the blood-sugar roller coaster that can happen from a high sugar-low fiber meal. Fiber also has a healthy effect on our cholesterol levels and may help to reduce this risk of cardiovascular disease.
Besides the fiber found in the brown rice, the bran contains nutrients like magnesium, manganese, and zinc. White rice has reduced levels of these nutrients, but is often fortified with iron, and some B vitamins.
