Grains are at the heart of agrifood syst since antiquity. Today most of them are consumed in refined form. Fortified #wholegrains & blends can be key to turning the food crisis into an opportunity. Thanks @pmilani Director Food Initiative @RockefellerFdn. https://t.co/ccVLmhyCrB

It doesn’t take much for whole grain to start making a difference. Even a small amount more in our diets each day can have a marked benefit on our health. Studies show, eating more whole grain, puts you at lower risk from getting heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension.
