Grains not only provide energy, they can assist the digestive system in performing its most basic of tasks as well as assist in regulating potty time.
The foods below tend to be naturally low in caloric values - as well as dietary fat; it's what we choose to add to them that anty-up's those values, and while we're trying to lose unwanted pounds, we need to keep these values in particular as low as they can possibly go.
Recommended Daily Amount for Grains is 6-11 Servings Daily
Therefore, do enjoy at least six servings of grain each and every day - and make them whole grain choices when the opportunity presents itself - and do be careful of fatty things that you pair with these food selections, such as butter, margarine, sugary jams, cream cheese, sour cream, cheese and other fats or sugars.
