Oh how silly, on what basis to compare? Is this science or the rantings
of a lifestyle food cult adherent speaking? On the whole they have
different but overlapping nutrient content and both provide energy in the
form of glucose for basic biological processes. In terms of health risk,
whole grains, and beans we can add, are found to lower risk in sevral
studies of future risk in metabolic disorders, unlike some but not all
meat products. Eat both in moderation and go in peace.


Find me a study that compares whole grains to anything other than
refined grains. All recent studies on grains, ie. since the low carb
phenomenon, have been funded by the grain industry and in every case
thay compare whole grain to refined grains. And by asking only the
narrow question of whether or not whole is better than refined, they
are guaranteed the answer they are looking for, that whole grains are
better (than refined grains).

Show me one study that compared grains to meats head to head. If this
study was to be done, one would see that grains are a poor food for
humans.

These people know that by asking the right question, they are
guaranteed the answer that they want. No surprises.
