Pancakes - Go Healthy With Grains

Posted on Feb 26th 2009 1:00PM by Jacki Donaldson

Filed Under: Nutrition & Supplements

I wrote recently about pancakes and how they can pack on the pudge. When made with a nutritious bunch of ingredients, though, pancakes can be a healthy addition to your diet.

The team at Love+Blueberries says alternative grains kick up the pancake health factor, and they suggest you experiment with quinoa and buckwheat. Here, they dish about good grains and how you don't want to junk them up.

Add some Oatmeal and a scoup of vanilla protien powder, great flavor, and much healthier

grain filled pancakes might seem like a good option for healthy food, but its like whole wheat bread is a bit of a hoax. Even though its touted as a health food, it has a high glycemic index. In fact, we've seen our clients get better results when they're off bread (though, they still eat rice and other grains). To check out our health and fitness blog, click here- http://fitho.in/
