Incorporating whole grain in the diet can lower the risk of heart disease, diabetes, stroke, cancers

A new research at UT Southwestern Medical Center shows that whole grains are good for heart, lower risk of diabetes and stroke, and may help prevent certain cancers. They also help in managing weight.

To ensure that there is a good amount of whole grains in your diet, you may add wild rice or brown rice to dishes as well as serving whole wheat crackers with hors d’oeuvres.
