My husband prefers Basmati Rice. Is that as healthy as brown rice, or is it considered a white rice?

    I'd say it has about the same nutrients as brown rice but is just a shorter grain.

    I'd say there isn't much in it, but if you look on the food database here for unbranded brown rice / unbranded basmati rice there is about a 60kcal difference so brown is marginally better for you!
