Health benefits of whole grains
(NC)How can consumers break through the clutter to make the right choices when it comes to grains? It appears there is a whole lot of confusion about whole grains.
"Consumers often mistake multigrain or 100% wheat products as being whole grain foods," says Sue Mah, registered dietitian and sports nutritionist, "The truth is that neither are whole grains. Multigrain simply means that more than one grain has been used in the recipe. 100% wheat means that wheat is the only grain that is present in the food. On the other hand, whole wheat is indeed a whole grain."
