Why Whole Grains?
As well as being rich in Fibre – you get the benefit of the whole combination of all the components that work together as a ‘whole package’, rather in isolation, to provide whole grains’ health benefits
When grains are milled, or refined, the bran and germ are removed leaving only the endosperm. Unfortunately more of the nutritional value of the grain disappears as well; that’s because of all the three layers both the rich outer layer and nutrient rich inner part contain the highest concentration of nutrients.
