White rice is milled rice that which husk, bran, and germ removed.  Regular-milled white rice, often referred to as “white” or “polished” rice is the most common form of rice. The outer husk is removed, and the layers of bran are milled until the grain is white.  This Changes the flavor, texture and appearance of the rice and helps prevent spoilage and extend its storage life. The milling and polishing processes both remove important nutrients.  Commonly, 100 grams of uncooked rice produces around 240 to 260 grams of cooked grains, the difference in weight owing to absorbed cooking water.

Brown rice is a “hulled” or “unmilled” rice and it is whole grain rice. Cooked brown rice has a slightly chewy texture and a nut-like flavor, but more nutritious than white rice. Brown rice and white rice have similar amounts of calories and carbohydrates. The main differences between the two forms of rice lie in the processing and nutritional content. When only the outermost layer of a grain of rice (the husk) is removed, brown rice is produced. To produce white rice, the next layers underneath the husk (the bran layer and the germ) are removed, leaving mostly the starchy endosperm. Several vitamins and dietary minerals are lost in this removal and the subsequent polishing process. The light brown color of brown rice is caused by the presence of bran layers which are rich in minerals and vitamins, especially the B-complex group.
