There are no nutrient rich grains, as compared to veggies and fruits.
Wrong.
Whole grain brown rice provides 15 essential nutrients, including
dietary fiber, B vitamins and folate, Vitamin E, minerals, potassium
and it's also a good source of antioxidants and phytonutrients
Are you comparing it to a soft drink? Try broccoli, chard, etc. We all know
there are nutrients in whole grains. The issue is how to maximize good
nutrients while keeping calories low. I don't think whole grains score very
well.
All grains are calorie dense, though, with sparse nutrient content per
calorie.
Wrong.
As she said, as compared with veggies and fruits.
