Answer

“Compared to white rice, brown rice contains 790% more thiamine, 540% more niacin, and 225% more magnesium, as well as higher amounts of riboflavin, folate, manganese, iron, and zinc. Although white rice does contain essential nutrients, the overall amounts are limited given the bran and germ are no longer present.”

Answer

I watch my blood sugar and brown rice doesn’t spike up my blood sugar as much as white. Because brown rice has fiber, I also feel full without eating a lot of brown rice vs white, so I’ve lost 20 lbs since I started eating brown rice.
