In a new study published in this month's Journal of Nutrition, researchers at Tufts University found that participants who ate whole grain cereals had significantly lower body fat and smaller waistlines as they aged.

Langley Deaver Danowitz is a 61-year-old woman who trimmed down by combining an exercise program with a diet rich in fibrous foods.

Registered Dietician Carla Heiser further stresses the importance of eating a diet rich in whole grains.
