[Why It's Good for You] Make whole grains your carbohydrate of choice. Also known as complex carbs, they are high in fiber and keep us more full for a longer amount of time. They're excellent sources of energy and are rich in antioxidants, folate, vitamins B6 and E, magnesium, and a host of other vitamins and minerals. Whole grains also help regulate digestion and can help lower the risks of high cholesterol, cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. Examples include brown rice, wild rice, whole wheat pasta, quinoa, barley, whole wheat couscous, bulgur, whole grain breads and cereals, and oats (oatmeal).
