Wheat and rice questions

So, wheat is missing from carbs 101. Is pasta any different from rice as a fuel?

Is brown rice better than white?

To follow on from Maritaday's question: is wild rice better than brown or white? Or do they have different strengths?

I believe that white rice is preferred to all mentioned carb sources due to the lack of antinutrients and gluten. 

Dude, Boki! Your answers are better than mine. Im going to leave you in charge. Don't burn the place down. 

I was so hoping for that answer about the white rice, because it's my favorite! Basmati, baby.
