Of Interest: Whole Grain Goodness

Picture of whole-wheat flour and whole-wheat baked goods Whole grains are often overlooked. In fact, surveys indicate that the majority of Americans are lucky if they consume even one serving of whole grains a day. Start making whole grains a part of your balanced diet because they are an important part of your digestive health and may reduce the risk of some cancers and chronic diseases.

Next time you make a sandwich for lunch or cook pasta for dinner, experiment a little. Use whole wheat bread or pasta instead of the traditional white stuff we've all grown used to eating.
