There are multiple benefits to eating foods containing whole grain, including but not limited to digestive health, weight management, and blood-glucose management. Conducting studies can provide compelling evidence to persuade people to make healthy changes, and we would like you to help us demonstrate the positive impact of whole grain on human health.

You must include:

1) Test conditions, duration, and population.

2) Literature/references that support the validity/viability of your methodology.

3) Study designs must be for humans and can involve all stages of human development beyond age 2.
