Americans need to eat more whole grains, study suggests
Most children and adults in the U.S. are getting less than the recommended amounts of whole grains and dietary fiber, according to a recent study.Yes, those experts in "Breakfast Science" are at it again.
Researchers found people who did eat the recommended three or more servings of whole grains each day also tended to consume the most fiber.
Reicks led the study at the University of Minnesota in St. Paul. Her coauthors are all affiliated with General Mills, which funded the study.
"More fiber" is not the same as "more grain". Whole grains are mostly carbs and major allergens.
