Why swapping white foods for brown really has so many benefits!
from Positive 5 with Kiri
In this episode, Kiri talks about how she swaps white pasta and bread for the wholemeal variety as much as she can, even for the kids! Wholegrains such as wholegrain pasta, bread and brown rice contain more fibre, vitamins and minerals, than refined grains. Kiri talks about how she uses brown rice pasta, red lentil and green pasta to make a colourful meal and the kids don’t even notice! No wonder they have toooooo much energy! Wholegrains can keep us fuller for longer and this slow digestion could result in a lower increase in blood sugar and gives us energy all day, not just after a meal due to the slow release carbs!
