Eat more whole grains foods for good health

23/04/2010 by admin.

Whole grains are high in fibre and are full of antioxidants which cannot be found in fruits and vegetables. The best way to increase your consumption of whole grain foods is to replace some of your refined-grain products (eg white rice, bread and pasta) with whole grain.  The more you can replace the better for your health.  Using whole grains will also help with weight management. By way of example, replace half the white flour with whole wheat flour in your regular baking recipes eg for cakes etc.  Use wholemeal bread instead of white bread when having toast for breakfast or when making sandwiches.  Add brown rice, barley or wild rice to your soup or casserole.
