The Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee — a group of 14 nationally-recognized nutrition experts tasked by the US government with spending two years reviewing the latest nutrition science — made public the summary scientific report of its findings.
We're pleased to say that the report strongly endorses the role of whole grains in a healthy diet, with statements like these:
The overall body of evidence examined by the 2015 DGAC identifies that a healthy dietary pattern is higher in vegetables, fruits, whole grains, low- or non-fat dairy, seafood, legumes, and nuts; moderate in alcohol (among adults); lower in red and processed meat; and low in sugar-sweetened foods and drinks and refined grains.
