Even if you're eating brown rice exclusively, that's still terrible for you from a health standpoint. The glycemic index alone greatly advises against it.

While I may agree with your sentiment, I don't agree with your argument.

If the empirical results from eating so much rice are actually good, it doesn't matter what the glycemic index says. It's just a proxy.

Now you're risking confusing correlation and causation.
