Make sure it's multigrain or wholegrain

You need to ensure that you have one portion of multigrain or whole gran food every day. For me, this is no challenge - breads and cereals and carby things are my favourite food type. The trick for me is ensuring that the food I am eating is multigrain or multigrain. It is a whole brown bread vs white bread thing.

"Whole grain means that all parts of the grain kernel — the bran, germ and endosperm — are used. In contrast, multigrain means that a food contains more than one type of grain, although none of them may necessarily be whole grains. The same goes for other variations, such as the term "seven grain." - by the Mayo Clinic

Brown bread or multigrain bread instead of white bread. All bran instead of sugar puffs. Brown rice instead of white rice etc etc. I also make sure that my whole or multigrain have that little yellow stamp on them just to make sure they definitely are whole or multigrain.

Those grains are filled with so many great vitamins and minerals - I really do suggest that we all make the change and the sooner the better!

And that's that - a short but sweet post for today :)
