Incorporating whole grains into your diet
According to the Mayo Clinic, whole grains provide us with fiber, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients. Whole grains may include the following nutrients:
|
- Vitamin A
- Vitamin B-1 (thiamin)
- Vitamin B-2 (riboflavin)
- Vitamin B-3 (niacin)
- Vitamin B-6 (pyridoxine)
- Vitamin B-9 (folate)
- Vitamin E
- Iron
- Magnesium
- Phosphorus
- Selenium
Action Items: Where to start?
- Choose cereals with whole grain such as whole-wheat bran flakes, shredded wheat, or oatmeal
- Substitute whole-wheat tost or whole-grain bagels for plain bagels
- Make sandwiches using whole-grain breads or rolls
- Use whole-wheat tortillas instead of white-flour tortillas
- Use whole-grain pastas
- Replace white rice with brown rice, wild rice, barley, or other grains
- Use wild rice or barley in soups, casseroles (hot dishes) and salads
- Add whole grains to ground meat or poultry for extra bulk
