Ximena Jimenez of Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics answered:Start your day by eating whole grains such as: oatmeal, whole-bran muffins, whole-wheat pancakes and bran cereal.
Switch your refined foods to whole grains-in bread, crackers, pasta and brown rice.
Snack on popcorn, pop the kernels in a brown paper lunch bag in the microwave.
Give quinoa, barley and amarath a try. Just add your favorite spices and/or vegetable or chicken broth to any of them.
