FOr clarification, imo, between grain and seed: grains are seeds, but not all seeds are grains.
Seeds, nuts and grains----all on the spectrum of seeds. Took me a bit of think time to underdtand why seeds and nuts might be better than grains. Mostly likely is the % of starch/carb of each seed. And % oil, % protein.
Plus each has its oue unique profile of chemicals. |
