"Overall, this book is a comprehensive and detailed reference guide
to wholegrains and health, covering all the latest research as well
as consumer and regulatory issues and opportunities for product
development within the food industry. It should be a useful
resource for nutritionists, dietitians and other health
professionals with an interest in the health aspects of
wholegrains; academic researchers, lecturers and students; and food
technologies, as well as others working in the food industry."
