Whole grains are an excellent source of nutrition, as they contain essential enzymes, iron, dietary fiber, vitamin E and B-complex vitamins. Because the body absorbs grain slowly, they provide sustained and high-quality energy.
Here are some examples of whole grains:
amaranth
barley (pearled or hulled-hulled is better for you but hard to find)
buckwheat or kasha
bulgur
brown rice
cornmeal
couscous
kamut
millet
oats/oatmeal
quinoa (high in protein!!)
rye berries
spelt
wheat berries
wild rice
