A whole grain is a grain of any cereal and pseudocereal that contains the endosperm, germ, and bran, in contrast to refined grains, which retain only the endosperm.[1][2][3]
As part of a general healthy diet, consumption of whole grains is associated with lower risk of several diseases.[4][5] Whole grains are a source of carbohydrates, multiple nutrients and dietary fiber.
