Animal Smiley 049 Brown Rice vs White for Diareaha

I have read that Brown Rice is better to use when your pup get's
diareaha because of the vitimins and nutrients in it, however,
a girlfriend called me last night to tell me her vet said not to
use brown rice for this problem because it has too much fiber in it.
Only white rice because of the starch content, is better for
diareaha than brown.
First time I have heard this and it does makes sence.
Just passing on something new I learned.
Of course every vet has his or her own thoughts on everything
but if brown has more fiber than it's not going to help much
in aiding diareaha I would think.
