Question

1. what is the main benefit of eating whole grains?

a. they provide long - lasting energy.
b. they are easy to cook.
c. they are inexpensive.
d. they are sugary.

Explanation:

Whole grains are rich in complex carbohydrates, fiber, and other nutrients. Complex carbohydrates are digested more slowly than simple sugars, providing a steady and long - lasting source of energy. Option b (ease of cooking) and c (inexpensiveness) are not the main nutritional benefits. Option d is incorrect as whole grains are not typically sugary; in fact, they have a lower glycemic index compared to refined grains and sugary foods. So the main benefit of eating whole grains is that they provide long - lasting energy.

Answer:

a. They provide long - lasting energy.
