What is the nutritional basis for considering whole grains better than refined grains?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: They retain more dietary fibre, vitamins, and minerals

A whole grain contains the bran, germ, and endosperm. The bran contributes dietary fibre and some minerals, while the germ contains vitamins, minerals, healthy fats, and other protective compounds; the endosperm supplies much of the carbohydrate and some protein. Refining commonly removes the bran and germ, reducing fibre and several micronutrients. Whole grains are not automatically superior for every medical condition, but their retained nutrient components explain option B.
