Brown rice VS White rice?

[NJPump]

So what about regular pasta?

Simple carb? or complex carb?

[Colossal Spoons]

^Yeah, I'd love to know if this rice argument applies to pasta as well.

If its a grain, it's a [largely] complex carb.

Think: starchy=complex, sweet=simple

[HerveDuchemin]

Yes, this is why you have to eat it between 6am-9am otherwise the metal will sit in your stomach and eventually turn to fat.

Ohhhhh, that's why I was getting fat eating that canned tuna late at night!

[SDC77]

Half of the people here were laboring under the thought that white rice and pasta were simple carbohydrates. Not shocking in the least.

Strictly speaking, starch=complex, sugar=simple

(I know you know this, just making sure else does, too)

I think confusing contains with is is where people get all messed up. Even cakes and crap like that contain a mix of simple and complex carbs. I meant to mention that earlier when we were discussing that stupid ezine article. She was saying things like "oats are fiber". Now wonder people get confused!

[Clarko]

let's just end this debate with, there's not a big difference between the two, but brown rice has more fiber and if you don't think they taste much different go brown. If you think white tastes alot better, go white.

[Mark2454]

No.

Grains = complex carbs.

So if i wanted to gain muscle and dont lose my abs, i have to switch to brown?

[Posterchild18]

Aside from the whole nutritional thing. If the rice is the star of the dish go with brown, chewy texture and more flavor, but if its only acting as a vessel then white may be the way to go.

[jay311088]

white rice has higher glicemic index than brown but it`s not a simple carb.
i think white is great post workout for the insulin spike.
