Choose whole grains over refined and aim for 3 servings per day. A serving is half a cup of barley/brown rice etc or one slice of wholegrain bread.
Examples of whole grains (most of which I have never heard of!) are: Amaranth, barley, buckwheat, bulgur, corn, farro/emmer, grano, kamut, millet, oats, quinoa, brown rice, rye, sorghum, spelt, teff, tritical and wheat.
If you don't like the taste of whole grains then try substituting half refined with half whole grain for a while to get your taste buds to adapt.
