Whole Grains and Health: Does the evidence support current guidelines? Joanne Slavin Professor Department of Food Science and Nutrition December 6, 2013 Disclosures for Joanne Slavin AFFILIATION/FINANCIAL INTERESTS Grants/Research Support: CORPORATE ORGANIZATION MN Beef Council, USAPears, MN Wild Rice Council , Novartis Consumer Health, Egg Board (graduate student support) Scientific Advisory Board/Consultant: Tate and Lyle, Adkins, Kelloggs Speakers Bureau: NA Stock Shareholder: NA Other NA From the Science to Me The Science Policy Me Nutrient Adequacy - Meet nutrient needs without exceeding calorie needs - Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) - Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Ranges (AMDR) - Protein – 10-35% of kcal - Carbohydrates – 45 – 65% of kcal - Fat – 20 – 35% of kcal - Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) - Adequate Intake (AI) - Tolerable Upper Limit (UL) USDA grain guidance over time • 1916 – Cereals and starchy foods – 20% of kcal • 1940s – Basic 7 – Bread, flour, and cereal – every day • 1950s – Basic 4 – bread, cereal – 4 or more servings • 1984 – Food Guide Pyramid – 6 – 11 servings – whole grain, enriched • 2005 DGA – make half of your grain whole 5 Nutritional science – nutrients/deficiency diseases • 1941: National Academy of Sciences began issuing “Recommended Dietary Allowances” – quantity of nutrients a person needed to consume daily to ensure basic good health, proper growth and reproductive success, and to prevent nutrient deficiency diseases – Nutritional deficiency diseases have been virtually eliminated in the US, thanks to enrichment of refined grains (thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, iron), fortification (folate) and other fortification strategies – Grains are source of B vitamins, Fe, Ca, Mg, P, and fiber There is no perfect diet! • Humans are omnivores, like pigs, and are adaptable to a wide range of foods • Humans have survived and prospered on all kinds of diets, mostly reflecting access to food supply – Traditional Arctic diet: 80% of kcals from fat – Traditional African diet: 80% of kcals from carbohydrate Grains are low in lysine and legumes are low in methionine – so vegan diets combine grains and legumes to provide high quality protein – most cultures have grains as the base of the diet – bread, rice, pasta, tortillas, etc. Dietary Fiber = Whole Grain • Deficient intake of both whole grains & dietary fiber • Dietary fiber not synonymous with whole grain – Both being encouraged, creates consumer confusion • Whole grains contain vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals above and beyond fiber – Foods with dietary fiber are more than just whole grains; also legumes, fruits, vegetables; and foods with functional fibers – Whole grains contain more nutrition than just dietary fiber (not on Nutrition Facts – food, not nutrient) Dietary fiber intake is low in U.S.1 • Usual intake only 15 g/day – recommended intakes 25 – 38 g/day – 14 g/1000 kcal • Most fiber-containing foods: 1 – 3 g – – – – Apple – 3 grams Lettuce – 1 gram WW bread – 2 grams Oatmeal – 3 grams • White flour and white potatoes provide the most fiber in the U.S. diet – Not b/c concentrated fiber sources, but because widely consumed There’s a need to add functional fiber to foods to reach the recommended dietary fiber goals. 1. Slavin J. Position of the American Dietetic Association: Health Implications of Dietary Fiber…Dietary Am Diet Assoc. 2008;108:1716-1731. Fiber, J What is a Whole Grain? Bran “Outer shell” protects seed Aleurone • Fiber • B vitamins • Trace minerals •Phytochemicals Germ Endosperm Nourishment for the seed Provides energy • B vitamins • Vitamin E • Trace minerals • Phytochemicals, antioxidants •Lipids • Carbohydrate • Protein • Some B vitamins Whole grains • Grains and grain products made from the entire grain seed, usually called the kernel, which consists of the bran, germ, and endosperm. If the kernel has been cracked, crushed, or flaked, it must retain nearly the same relative proportions of bran, germ, and endosperm as the original grain in order to be called whole grain. Many, but not all, whole grains are also a source of dietary fiber (Appendix E-2, 2010 DGAC Report) Whole Grains Dietary Guidance NAS Diet and Health links whole grains to reduced risk for heart disease and some cancers 1980 Whole Grains promoted as a source of fiber Dietary Guidelines (5th ed.) • separate grain guideline • emphasis on whole grain 1990 FDA permits whole grain health claim 2000 2005 Dietary Guidelines recommend 3 servings of whole grains per day 2005 2010 Healthy People objective to whole grain consumption Whole Grains and health • 2010 Dietary Guidelines – Recommends consuming 3 or more servings of whole grains/day as part of your total grain servings to reduce the risk of CHD and help with weight maintenance. • IOM and WHO/FAO reports reinforce importance of whole grains in healthy diets • Countries around the world now have WG recommendations Whole grains in the US • • • • • • • Whole wheat Whole oats/oatmeal Whole-grain corn Popcorn Brown rice Whole rye Whole-grain barley • • • • • • • Wild rice Buckwheat Triticale Bulgur (cracked wheat) Millet Quinoa Sorghum Grain Refining Milling Endosperm Removal of bran and germ layers.

The data for whole grain alone are limited primarily because of varying definitions among epidemiological studies what, and how much, was included in that food category – Cho et al.

Fiber Content Varies by Grain Dietary fiber in various types of grains Brown Rice Whole Grain Corn Meal Whole Oats Whole Grain Wheat 100g 1.8g 7.3g 10.3g 12.2g 55g 1.0g 3.7g 5.7g 6.7g 30g 0.5g 2.2g 3.1g 3.7g USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference Dietary Fiber = Whole Grain • DG – make ½ grain svgs whole/16 g (epi), wheat, oats, corn, rice, barley, • Current food labeling difficult to find whole grains, not on Nutrition Facts. Ingredients don’t clearly indicate the amount of whole grain present. Whole Grains Council stamp program • Health claim for whole grain: – Contains all portions of the grain kernel – At least 51% whole grain by weight – Meet fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol restrictions Labeling & Identifying Whole Grain Foods • Product Name • Amount of Whole Grain – Grams or Ounce Equivalents – Factual Statements • Symbols – Whole Grains Council Stamp • FDA Approved Whole Grain Health Claim – “Diets rich in whole grain foods and other plant foods, and low in total fat, saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risks of heart disease and certain cancers.” – Product must conform to claim criteria (at least 51% of product weight is whole grain & meets other composition criteria) • Ingredients – Look for whole grain ingredients as first or predominant in ingredients list Three Levels of Whole-grain Goodness Good Source Excellent Source 100%/Excellent At least 8 g whole grain/serving At least 16 g whole grain/serving At least 16 g whole grain/serving, no refined grains www.wholegrainscouncil.org “Diets rich in whole grain foods and other plant foods, and low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may help reduce the risk of heart disease.” Developing a standard definition of “whole grain food” • While the term “whole grain” is well defined, there has been no universal standard to define what constitutes a “whole grain food”, creating challenges for researchers, the food industry, regulatory authorities, and consumers • AACC International recommendation: – Whole grain food product must contain 8 grams or more of whole grain per 30 g serving • May 2013 Whole grain key messages • Whole grains provide more than fiber • Scientific support for whole grains protecting against CVD and obesity • 2010 Dietary Guidelines recommends that at least half of all grains come from whole grains – the rest from enriched or whole grains • 9 out of 10 Americans don’t consume 3 WG servings per day Dietary Guidance—A Historical Perspective 1894 - Dr. Atwater specified amount of protein and total calories in a good diet, but left unspecified the division of calories between fats and carbohydrates 1902 - “evils of overeating may not be felt at once, but sooner or later they are sure to appear – perhaps in general debility, perhaps in actual disease” 1902 - “ordinary food materials…make a fitting diet, and the main question is to use them in the kinds and proportions fitted to the actual needs of the body” Recommended variety, proportionality and moderation, measuring calories, and an affordable diet focused on nutrient-rich foods, less fat, sugar and starch. 1943: Basic Seven Margaret Mead: “People don’t eat nutrition – they eat food” Basic 7 did not specify the number of servings of each food group needed daily Food advice: Evolution of USDA’s Food Guidance – Moderation and Variety 1950s-1960s 1940s Food for Young Children 1970s 1992 1916 2005 MyPlate.gov Toward Healthful Diets, FNB, 1980 • “The Board expresses its concern over excessive hopes and fears in many current attitudes toward food and nutrition. Sound nutrition is not a panacea. Good food that provides appropriate proportions of nutrients should not be regarded as a poison, a medicine, or a talisman. It should be eaten and enjoyed.” Conclusions • Efforts to micromanage the diet by imposing strict dietary rules are difficult to support with evidence-based nutrition science – we do not have strong evidence-based support for many of our accepted dietary practices • We have moved from nutrient-based recommendations to food recommendations – historically we have supported whole grains as a source of fiber, rather than whole grains per se – Dietary fiber is a short-fall nutrient and most Americans need to replace some refined grains with whole grains, not eat more whole grains • Our inability to define whole grains and analytically measure them will continue to add to confusion • Solving important nutrition problems will require partnerships based on trust among academics, the government, commodity groups, activists, and food companies
