1. Which of the following best describes your daily consumption of grain products?

N.B.
One serving is about one slice of bread, 1/2 bowl of rice or pasta, or 3/4 cup of breakfast cereal.
Examples of whole grains: whole wheat bread, brown rice, and whole grain breakfast cereal.
Examples of refined grains: white bread, white rice, and refined breakfast cereal.

Recommendation: Whole grains are rich in dietary fibres and contain several important vitamins and minerals – all of which are important for good health and for preventing cancer. It is recommended to eat at least six servings of a variety of breads and grains everyday, and choose mostly whole grain bread and whole grain cereal instead of refined (processed) grain products.
