Hi all,

I have food/health blog and I would to like share it with you guys
here. One of the recent article I wrote is called "Eat More Grain
Foods".

Here's the cut down version and if you'd like to read the full article
please visit my blog - www.wideworldoffood.com

Grain products include bread, rice, cereal, and pasta. These are an
essential part of your diet because they are important sources
beneficial carbohydrates, like starch and fiber, along with vitamins
and minerals...

Hope you enjoy

Oh, you mean those lame-butt articles that look like they were written
by a high-school drop out along with the real purpose of the
"blog"....to try and sell a worthless diet drug? Uh, I'll pass. dkw

And he didn't even get it right. "Whole Grain" carbs. Not a good
recommendation for diabetics, he didn't mention sugars.

Correct me if I'm wrong but, I do believe vitamins and minerals are not
carbs, but vitamins and minerals.

What a bonehead!

Good point. The rice he/she shows in the photo also looks like white
rice, not whole grain brown rice so a lot of the benefits of eating
grains would be lost. I just hate people that come-on as friendly and
interested in something you are, but then hit you with marketing.
It's worse in real life. Sometimes people are just friendly so you
never know, but more often than not a pleasantry turns into a request
for money in some fashion. This was rather obvious and humorous in its
naivete. dkw

Especially since the real point of comparison is not reducing
refined grains by replacing them with whole grains. It's
reducing veggies like cauliflower and replacing them with whole
grains. Try some study of that and see what the benefits are.

Grain is only "beneficial" when compared to abject junk and
sure enough that's what studies compare it against. A study
that shows oatmeal beats Capn Crunch? So what. A study
that shows that whole grain bread beats Wonder Bread? So
what. Show me a study where steel cut oats and brown rice
beats kiwi fruits and kale and *then* I'll stand up and take
notice. It won't ever happen, of course.
