Almost any diet plan suggests that you limit both sweets and starches, because both of them are causing people to gain weight; so either white rice or brown rice should not be a staple food when you are trying to lose weight.

There are 52 grams of carb in a cup of brown rice, and 53 grams in a cup of white rice; so the difference is negligible, although brown rice does have more fiber.
On a low carb diet, you should be only having 20-30 grams of carbs per day, so even one cup of rice is twice the amount of your whole daily allowance. You would not be able to have any kind of veggies or other food except protein or fats with even a half cup of rice per day.

I have heard that that brown rice being that much healthier than white rice may just be a myth although I admit I haven't looked too much deeper to know if there is any validity to that claim.

Personally, if I were thinking of making a permanent switch, I'd first try and find as much research on this first from credible professionals like actual doctors and nutritionists.

What makes brown rice superior over white is the fact that it has a lot more fiber in it.
