Is brown rice healthier than white rice?

Answer by  Anonymous

Brown rice still has the husks like whole wheat so, it is not just empty starch, and can sustain life longer because it contains a B vitamin: Thiamine, that "polishing" removes.A lack of thiamine observed in WWI was called Beri-Beri=starvation, and old disease like scurvy, easily cured.
