Thanks for posting this article.

Why not get your carbs from fruits & vegetables? Fruits & veg have higher levels of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, fiber, and provide greater satiety due to their high volume / low calorie ratio. Basically, more bang for the calorie. Why grains?

Along with what you said, whole grains are high in nutrition, fiber, and actually may lower cholesterol a little. Great post. I wish more people would understand this.

I think I need to make the switch to whole grain breads and pastas. It's funny that you wrote about this today, because when I visited the pediatrician a few days ago for Lainey's check-up, she recommended the same thing: whole grains. It must be good advice! :) Wow, as I read the list of carbs to eat sparingly, I noticed that I eat everything listed there, quite frequently.
