Whole grains
Contain a range of protective nutrients
The Australian Dietary Guidelines recommends that people ‘eat a variety of grain foods, mostly whole grain and/or high cereal fibre varieties.’ Grains are recommended because they are the leading source of a range of essential nutrients in the Australian diet.
Whole grains are widely recognised as superior in comparison to processed and refined grains, as they contain a range of protective nutrients that can help improve health and prevent diseases. The body digests these intact grains more slowly and studies have shown that eating whole grains can help to improve heart health and reduce the risk of diabetes.
