When choosing foods from the starchy food group, replace refined cereal foods, such as white bread, rice and pasta, with wholegrain varieties such as wholemeal bread, brown rice and whole wheat pasta. Wheat, oats, barley, rye and rice are all commonly available in their wholegrain form. It is preferable to replace the refined grain products in your diet with the wholegrain ones, rather than just add whole grain products to your existing diet.1
