(Originally released May 15, 2019 - Sound Bites podcast) Refined grains sometimes get a bad rap, but Glenn Gaesser recently joined Sound Bites RD Melissa Joy Dobbins to discuss the benefits and its effects on diabetes.  While they are frequently characterized as unhealthy, this can be attributed to their inclusion in a dietary pattern that contains other foods that are the real culprits in the link between an unhealthy dietary pattern and increased risk of a number of chronic diseases. Given this, we might consider differentiating between what could be called “indulgent grains,” which are usually fried and/or covered in sugar, and refined grains, which have been enriched and/or fortified to help alleviate shortfalls of vital nutrients including B-vitamins, folic acid, thiamin, niacin, riboflavin, and the mineral iron.

Glenn Gaesser on Sound Bites podcast - Refined grains and diabetes

  “Assessing the health impact of the way we eat is exceedingly difficult and I think we need to be careful about recommendations that are based on science that is not all that solid. Making conclusions about what we should or should not eat based on dietary patterns is overly simplistic….and may actually be deleterious if we cut out all refined grains from our diet.” - Dr. Glenn Gaesser  Glenn Gaesser, PhD is an exercise physiologist and the author of a study recently published in Advances in Nutrition journal: "Refined Grains and Health: Genuine Risk, or Guilt by Association?"  Tune in to hear what the research really says about whole grains, refined grains and indulgent grains, plus recommendations for grain intake that are likely different from what you've been hearing.
