Best Carbs?

[robertoblanco]

I'm finally going to start measuring out my food and using the best carb sources for *all* my meals so any suggestions would be great!

I'm already going to be eating yams and oats and possibly brown rice.

what is the big difference between white and brown rice? I noticed that in my rice (white/brown) brown has fat/white doesnt/ brown only has 10 grams less calories are about the same

brown digests slower then white rice. Lower on the GI scale = doesn't have a big impact on blood sugar levels and insulin
