White Rice vs. Brown Rice

BIGSWiN19 · 10-19-2005, 12:09 PM

Hey, I was wondering what type of rice would be better for my nutrition. I usually eat about 2 cups of white rice every 2 hours, 6 times per day. Should I switch to brown or is white rice cool with my diet.
thanx for helping me out.

Dont eat white rice (i am not able to translate it in englisch) but it is not good for your "blood-sugar-mirror"? (this is the 1 on 1 translation from the german, i hope u know what i mean

its important that u just eat natural rice or my favourite BASMATI Rice (tasty)

There is nothing wrong with white rice. Brown is although preferable if you are dieting. As it has a lower GI, therefore slower.
Its like everything else if you are dieting you should avoid all high GI foods.
12 cups of white rice. What grams of carbs do you think this is?
What other carbs are you consuming ?

Just stick with Brown Rice because the nutrients are tak'n out of white rice.

White rice is also bleached white! So as you can gather it's not to "good" for you!
