Reduce Heart Failure Risk with Whole-Grain Breakfast Cereals
What’s up for breakfast today? Make habit of eating whole-grain breakfast cereals daily and you can reduce your risk of heart failure by up to 28%!
The analysis shows that those who ate a whole-grain breakfast cereal seven or more times per week were less likely (by 28 percent) to develop heart failure over the course of the study than those who never ate such cereal. The risk of heart failure decreased by 22 percent in those who ate a whole-grain breakfast cereal from two to six times per week and by 14 percent in those who ate a whole-grain breakfast cereal up to once per week.
Remember, not just any breakfast cereal will do. Go for the whole grain variety. Whole grains are rich in vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants and have a high fiber content.
Oh, and by the way, for the parents out there, did you know it’s the National School Breakfast Week?
I actually eat the exact cereal you have pictured every morning! Maybe I am doing something right after all.
BTW – I think two of my favorite blogs are in love! Mark’s Daily Apple had some pretty nice things to say about you the other day…

I agree, whole grains are healthier, as explained in this article.
In my opinion, they taste much better too!
