Why we care about whole grain

Like you care for them, at Nestlé Cereals we care for our grains. That's why we’ve made whole grain the number 1 ingredient in all of our cereals with the green banner.

Nestlé Whole Grain cereals. Great starts with whole grain.

Whole grain provides a range of vitamins, minerals, fibre, starch and other nutrients – that’s why it’s often recommended we eat three to five servings a day^[1]. But research shows we’re not getting enough^[2]. Fortunately, breakfast is a good way to get some whole grain first thing. So we’re always working behind the scenes to make sure our whole grain cereals give you and your family a daily dose of the good stuff.

SHREDDED WHEAT is already made with 100% whole grain, and by the end of 2015, Nestlé Cereals popular with children will have more whole grain than any other ingredient. So when you see the green banner on a pack, you’ll be 100% sure the cereal contains whole grain!
