Is brown rice unhealthy?
Brown rice is not unhealthy. Since brown rice still has the bran intact, it has more fiber than white rice. One cup of brown rice has 3 1/2 grams of fiber while the same amount of white rice has less than one gram of fiber. We all need from 25 to 38 grams of fiber in our diet everyday.

About Grams of Fiber
Fiber is necessary for the healthy functioning of the digestive system. Whole grain breads, fruits and vegetables, and whole grain cereals are good sources of fiber. Most diets that are not 'fad' diets recommend healthy quantities of fiber in the diet.
