Dietary recommendations for whole grain

I personally like taste of whole grain bread, so I can eat it all day long. But how much is enough for maintaining a healthy diet. The US Dietary Guidance recommends different amount of whole grains daily according to your age and sex.

For children: age 2-3 — 1.5-3 servings; age 4-13 — 2-4 servings.

For women: age 14 to 50 — 3-6 servings; 50 + — 3-5 servings.

For men: age 14 to 50 — 3.5-7 servings; 50+ — 3-6 servings.

But what counts as a serving? In 100% whole grain products as 7 Grain offers to you that would be:

1 slice of 7 Grain, Rye or Sprouted bread

1/2 of 7 Grain sandwich flat

1/2 of a cinnamon bun
