Cereal crops or grains are mostly grasses cultivated for their edible grains or a fruit seeds. Cereal grains provide more energy worldwide than any other type of crop and are therefore staple crops. They are also a rich source of carbohydrate.
On the other hand, pulses are defined as annual leguminous crops yielding from one to twelve grains or seeds of variable size, shape and color within a pod, by the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations (FAO). They have high protein and essential amino acid content.

∙ 14y agoRefined grains are processed grains that typically have the germ and the bran stripped out of them. This process removes upwards of 80% of the nutrition from the grain and basically leaves strarch. In contrast, a whole grain has not had the germ or bran removed and therefore provides important fibre to a diet.

∙ 14y agoWhole grains contain the entire seed; the hull, or bran, which contains fiber, the starchy part, and the kernel, or endosperm.
Refined grains take off the hull and the kernel, removing fiber, protein and many nutrients in the process.

Consequently, our bodies are not designed for this way of eating. Grains or refined carbohydrates are deliciously addictive but our bodies do not flourish on them because our ancestors did not evolve eating such foods. From around two-and-one-half million years ago until the Agricultural Revolution around ten thousand years ago grains were not consumed by our ancestorsMany, many people have a problem with grains and refined processed carbohydrates because our bodies are extremely similar to the bodies of our ancestors.Less than 1/10th of 1% of our genes have changed in the last 10,000 years. In terms of evolution, it is not that long ago!The diseases referred to as diseases of Western civilization, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and many other conditions, became pervasive in developed countries in the twentieth century primarily because of a diet high in grains and refined processed carbohydrate.If you choose to eat grains, then yes eat whole grains.
