Individuals who consume lots of whole grains are usually leaner and remain at much lower risk of developing heart disease compared to people who don’t consume whole grains. This happens because of the high quantity of phytosterols, phytoestrogens, and antioxidants found in whole grains. Fibers found in whole grains also play a major role. A study conducted by researchers from the Harvard University revealed that people consuming a diet rich in fiber have 40% lower risk of having heart disease than people on low-fiber diets.
