New research on Canadians’ whole grain intake
General Mills scientists analyzed how many Canadians are eating whole grain foods, the top sources of whole grains and the effect of whole grains on overall diet quality.

Whole grains have been associated with numerous health benefits. Canada’s Dietary Guidelines recommend consumption of whole grain foods as part of healthy dietary patterns [1], and have included whole grains in the most recent Canada Food Guide. And yet, there is little research on whole grain intake in Canada.
