Welcome to the Dr. Burg's Healthy Keto and Interminate Fasting Podcast, where Dr.

0:08.0

Burg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight.

0:21.3

Now what would happen if you consume mostly healthy whole grains for one month?

0:26.8

Well, if you haven't tried that experiment, you might want to try it.

0:29.6

I did it pretty much my whole life all the way until I was I think 28 years old, roughly about

0:35.5

five years ago. And I would say it probably wasn't the best experiment to do in my body, but I was

0:40.8

really consuming a lot of what I thought were healthy whole grains. You know, the cereals, the breads,

0:47.4

the pasta, the crackers, things like that. So let's do a whole deep dive on these healthy whole

0:52.7

grains to dissect some of the component parts. Now the first thing I want to talk about is fiber,

0:59.3

right? Because they always say like, you know, if you eat whole grains, you're getting like two to

1:04.5

three times the fiber compared to refined grains. Well, yes, that might be true, but grains don't

1:15.2

That is not high. So one cup of rice has about 0.4 grams of fat. So it's really low in fat.

1:27.9

It has about 45 grams of carbohydrate, which is extremely high. Yet it only has 0.6 grams

1:36.8

fiber. That's a very tiny amount. And it has about 4.3 grams of protein. That's pretty low too.

1:44.7

Now what about multi grain bread? Well, we have 1.7 grams of fat. So that's pretty low.

1:51.5

And we're talking about like one slice, okay? It has 18 grams of carbs, which is quite high.

1:57.0

Yet only 3 grams of fiber and about 5 grams of protein. Now if you take

2:03.1

celery, for example, that's like 50% fiber, like spinach, like just one cup, 50% fiber,

2:10.2

and only 4 grams of carbs. So you really want to get your fiber from vegetables, not grain.

2:18.3

And the next point I want to talk about is, I mean, no one really consumes just 100% whole grain.

2:24.4

They consume products with whole grains, which come with refined grains, and it come with refined
