Whole grain cereal is an easy way to bring balance to your mornings. Whether you prefer a bowl with milk or dairy substitute, or to build something more creative, whole grain breakfast cereals offer a mix of flavor, whole grains, and convenience.
If you’re looking for a whole grain cereal or just want to better understand your options, Post Consumer Brands products are a great place to start.
What is considered whole grain cereal?
A whole grain cereal is made using grains that include all parts of the grain kernel:
- Bran: the fiber-rich outer layer
- Germ: the nutrient-dense core
- Endosperm: the starchy center
Because nothing is removed during processing, whole grains contain more fiber and nutrients than refined grains like white bread or white rice. When shopping for products, take note of the ingredients and look for “whole grain” as one of the first ingredients listed.
