In this episode of Nutrition Science Bites, I talk with Professor Eleanor Beck about the importance of whole grains and their health benefits. Prof Beck explains the difference between whole grains, refined grains, and challenges of getting information about them from food labels. We talk about practical tips for selecting various types of wholegrain products, including ancient and lesser-known varieties and how to include more in your daily eating patterns. The conversation also covers wholegrains and risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease.
