Foods containing whole cereals are a very important source of nutrients and photo-protective substances that are rarely found in a normal diet.

The consumption of this type of food is very important owing to the beneficial effects that it provides our organism:

- Weight Control: despite the fact that this type of food is moderately high in calories, the calories that they contain are not fattening, as compared with those that come from fats and sugars.

- Nutritional Capacity: in the refining process, cereals lose important nutrients. By taking whole cereals, we assimilate the intact nutrients that the food contains in its natural state into our bodies.

- Protection against Diseases: recent epidemiological studies have shown evidence of the protective role of whole cereals with respect to heart diseases, some types of cancer and type 2 diabetes.
