i try not to eat too much processed stuff. nothing from the freezer out of a box. i hardly ever eat fast food. and i made the switch to brown rice around 3 years ago. and for a chinese dude, that is HUGE!
i dont understand raw diets. like in veggies, the human body doesnt even have the tools to break that stuff down. are you not losing out on a bunch of vitamins? heat breaks down cell walls to make the nutrient accessible, right?

This is true. But if you eat enough, you'll be OK. We evolved eating raw food. Chew thoroughly.
I'm getting ready to bail on wheat products also because I'm trying to track down some mild food intolerance. We didn't evolve (or weren't designed, depending on your feelings about it) to consume large amounts of grain, especially refined grain.
Has brown rice made you feel any better? What's wrong with white if it's not parboiled?
