Whole grains are made from the entire kernel and include the germ, bran and endosperm. Refined grains are milled so the germ and bran are removed. Refined grain products include white bread, white flour and white rice.

Fiber is not always added back to refined products. Fiber is found naturally in whole grains. Fiber fills you up, so eating it makes you feel fuller faster. This can help with weight management. Studies also have shown that adequate fiber in the diet can help with diabetes management and may help lower blood pressure.
