The Whole Grain Problem

In recent decades, we have seen an alarming change on our supermarket shelves: whole grain products have increasingly been replaced by refined, nutrient-poor alternatives. Although there has recently been a renewed trend towards more whole grain products in many European countries, including Germany, this is usually limited to a few product groups from the "organic section". You have the choice – every day. Your body needs whole grains more urgently than ever - the explosive numbers of diabetes, cardiovascular problems, nerve damage and many other "new" widespread diseases are frightening and we should slowly be asking ourselves why this is! Whole grain products play a key role in this and urgently need to be back on our tables! In this article we explain why this is the case and what positive effects whole grains have on your health.
