Even white rice can be better than many choices (see Kempner Rice Diet: Whipping Us Into Shape (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/kempner-rice-diet-whipping-us-into-shape)), but brown is better (Is it Worth Switching from White Rice to Brown? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/worth-switching-white-rice-brown)) and pigmented rice probably the best.
