Whole grain can include other grains besides wheat.  So whole wheat is a subset of whole grains.  As to which is better for health, that would depend on what other grains were involved, as well as what other ingredients, not to mention the particulars of your own digestive system.\n\nEveryone knows about allergies, but people tend not to think about the fact that digestion is a very complex process that is different for different people, and even different for the same people under different conditions, and at different stages in their life.  (If I could eat the way I did when I was young . . .)  Saying one thing is healthier than another is very risky unless they are at extremes; something really very bad vs. something good for nearly everyone.

The FDA regulates food quality - at least to a certain extent - the1994 Dietary Supplement and Health Education Act, passed in response to a huge lobbying campaign by the supplement industry exempts "natural" supplements from requirements to test for safety, purity or effectiveness (hundreds of American citizens have died as a result of this nearsightedness). \n\nBut that has little to do with bugs in your cereal; I point it out merely to show how the public's safety has become politicized. The FDA does what it can. It has set what are known as Defect Action Levels: "Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 110.110 allows the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to establish maximum levels of natural or unavoidable defects in foods for human use that present no health hazard. These "Food Defect Action Levels" listed in this booklet are set on this premise--that they pose no inherent hazard to health."\nhttp://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/dalbook.html\n\n\nDefect Action Levels:\nWHEAT FLOUR - Average of 75 or more insect fragments per 50 grams. Average of 1 or more rodent hairs per 50 grams\nCORNMEAL - Average of 1 or more whole insects (or equivalent) per 50 grams. Average of 25 or more insect fragments per 25 grams. Average of 1 or more rodent hairs per 25 grams, or average of 1 or more rodent excreta fragment per 50 grams.\n\nIf you ever watch a combine harvest wheat, or see how it's stored before and after processing, you understand that a certain level of contamination truly is unavoidable, especially when you're harvesting on huge corporate farms for mass processing and mass consumption. If you want better food, buy local!

Hi: It is more a question of which ones to eat limited amounts of. Those include starchy peas, corn and potatoes.\nThey are still better than white bread and flour starch but\nneed to be limited. Most other fruits and vegetables are\ngreat, especially green leafy vegetables and berries. Ken

I'd say fibers.  You can either eat fibers supplement or eat grain rice, wholewheat bread or fiber rich fruits such as papaya.

Oatmeal and fresh fruit.  Can't beat it.  Complex carbs for long term energy (oatmeal), and simple carbs (fruit) for short term energy spikes.  Plus it can help reduce your cholesterol

definatly ask a preofessional dietician. i recommend organic food. more whole grains in your diet, veggies, and whole fruits. youre plan looks really vague. eat more of your whole grains earlier in the day, so your body burns them off through out the day.

Zinc is found in a wide variety of foods (2). Oysters contain more zinc per serving than any other food, but red meat and poultry provide the majority of zinc in the American diet. Other good food sources include beans, nuts, certain seafood, whole grains, fortified breakfast cereals, and dairy products (2,9). Zinc absorption is greater from a diet high in animal protein than a diet rich in plant proteins (2). Phytates, which are found in whole grain breads, cereals, legumes and other products, can decrease zinc absorption

Very few of the dry cereals are really healthy.  The best ones are the plain shredded wheat varieties, all bran, bran buds, and grape nuts.  All the others have considerably more sugar than we realize, even those such as special K.  Natural granola is usually high in fat.\n\nSo it really does depend on what you need.  If you can tolerate the plain shredded wheat cereals, great.  If you are ok with the amount of sugar and fat in the others, then ok too.  My suggestion would be to read labels carefully with your own nutritional and energy needs in mind, and then make an informed choice.

the long grain and wild rice is much better for you in terms for whole grain.  I think you get noodles made out of wheat flour too.  Avoid eating regular noodles everyday, too many carbs and starch
