Should I eat whole grains?

Whole grains have only the outer husk removed. The whole grains are high in fiber minerals and many B vitamins.

The fiber is not absorbed in the body but expelled out in stool. It basically cleans out the gut removing parts of fats and cholesterol.

The fiber makes you feel full and and not hungry for longer period. This helps you to consume less food while dieting

The fiber helps reduce spikes in blood glucose, subsequent surge in insulin and subsequent dip in blood glucose. The spikes and the dips are responsible to make you feel hungry.

A well documented study of 74,000 female nurses over 12 years correlates consumption of whole grains with lower body weight.

Lignans found in whole grains reduce risk of heart disease and breast cancer
