Health Tip: Getting More Whole Grains

Whole grains are nutrient-rich foods that are full of fiber to help you feel full.

The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics suggests ways to work more whole grains into your diet:

• Include a whole grain food for breakfast, such as whole-grain toast, oatmeal or cereal.
• When shopping, choose whole-grain options of tortillas, buns, bread, bagels and pasta.
• Consider more unusual grains, such as bulgur, whole rye, millet, sorghum and quinoa.
• Snack on whole grains, such as air-popped popcorn or 100 percent whole wheat or rye crackers.
