Are you eating enough whole grains? Why should you care?
Find out all the ways whole grains can improve your health with Dr. Neal Barnard. Everything from whole wheat to whole-grain rice will be on the table when he joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room LIVE.
Dr. Barnard will share the healthiest grains, how much you should be eating, and some surprising facts you need to know that can help take your health to the next level.
