In Europe we be quite concerned with the issue of food in relation to health (Eurobarometer 2010), but the reality is that after we make decisions not as simple as a shopping list healthy and suitable for all home.
Why are all the rage these cereals? What is really your benefit? What is its impact on health? How to identify them? With all the studies now, you can almost say that whole grains are preventive medicine. Heart disease, colorectal cancer, prevention against various gastrointestinal disorders, obesity and type II diabetes are among the diseases (very common in our population, certainly) related to the low intake of these foods. Actually there is nothing new: "your food be your medicine." Already said Hippocrates.
The supermarket shelf is full. But beware, not all dark grains are integral, not all of them are healthy (lots of industrial bakery products a little fiber ... and too much saturated fat!). The solution: learn to read labels. It takes only seconds to provide extra information on products entering home.
