Brown rice vs white rice - is the hype for real ?

Unless you're eating the rice by itself the GI matters not

Why is this? I'm wondering because every nutrition class I have taken never got into this.

when I eat carbs that are high gi or simple sugars, I start to put fat on much faster than I would without them. I'm not saying this is the same for everyone, but for me inotice a big change in composition when consuming carbs like white rice, potatoes, and white breads.

Bc GI is a measure of the glucose response to that one food in isolation in a fasted state. When you do eat brown rice by itself? With no meat or chicken or fats? When do you eat brown rice by itself after having been fasted?

Thank you for the reply. That is very interesting, and something that was completely neglected in any of the nutrition classes I took. I appreciate you taking the time to explain it to me.
