The Grain Guide: Easy Recipes for the Healthiest Whole Grains
Don't nix carbs, just make sure you're eating whole grain foods and eliminating the refined ones.
Cook whole grains to replace refined carbs, and read your bread label with a watchful eye.
RODALE NEWS, EMMAUS, PA—Carbs get a bad rap because so many Americans are eating the bad ones—refined carbohydrates in white bread, candy, cookies, sugary cereals, and all sorts of other junk food and drinks. In fact, research has shown that 95 percent of the grains we eat are refined. Eating too many foods with these adulterated ingredients won't just make you fat, it'll also raise your risk of heart disease and diabetes. And raise your levels of blood fats called triglycerides, putting you on the fast track for a heart attack or stroke.
