Whole-grain it!

With food prices going up & up, you're probably finding it tricky to buy a balanced diet. One of my biggest questions of all time, why did they ever start processing out all the nutrients found in whole grains and rice? Finally, now that more people have been asking that very question, it has come apparent that it takes alot less time, energy and cost to produce the same products with the whole grain.
What's the benefit, you ask?
Easy answer, all the original nutrients at the same price (or a few pennies more) as the over processed white flour items such as:
-Pasta (sometimes only spaghetti for some reason)
-bread
-rice
-flour itself
-crackers

These carbs are only bad for us if we ingest too much of the overly processed, bleached, refined flour base products. Eating whole grain foods not only gives you energy and helps your digestion, it can also help you lose weight. Grains were never meant to be stripped of their nutritional value. Treat your body the way it was meant to be treated. Eat whole foods as often as possible.
