Consuming wholegrains as part of a healthy lifestyle is associated with a lower incidence of cardiovascular disease

The term "wholegrain" means exactly what it says: all three components of the grain - bran, germ and endosperm - are retained

Wholegrains can be any of the major cereals including wheat, barley and oats

On average the UK produces around 15 million tonnes of wheat each year, nearly 7 million tonnes of barley per year & nearly 600,000 tonnes of oats

A wheat seed contains 20,000 grains of flour! Which helps make the 9 million loaves of bread which are baked in Britain every day!

A wheat crop will produce on average about 7.5 tonnes of grain per hectare (A hectare is about the size of an international football pitch!) that's enough to make 11,500 loaves of bread!

Approx 42 per cent of the UK cereal crop is used to feed animals including pigs, chickens and cows, which helps put bacon, sausages, eggs and milk on the nation's breakfast tables

Oats contain high levels of soluble fibre, which act as a sponge, soaking up cholesterol - helping to lower cholesterol levels
