Why Does White Rice Make Me Sick?

I can't figure it out. Almost every time I eat white (organic) rice or plain white rice noodles, I get a sudden attack of D.

Sometimes I can get away with eating white rice for one meal, but then I get a D attack if I eat it at a second or third meal. (I can't eat brown rice at all because I get both D and severe stomach cramps from it.)

Does anyone have any idea why white rice should cause me such misery? I thought it was supposed to be one of the safest IBS foods and, as far as I know, I don't have an allergy to it.

I wonder if any other IBS people have trouble tolerating white rice. This has been plaguing me for a long time, but I keep hoping I'm just imagining my reaction to it. Alas, it is not my imagination.
