Talk:Farina/@comment-71.190.225.44-20110201141047

I usually dont post to boards, but the user below implies Farina is not "healty" for you. I want users to know there are MANY healthy aspects to Farina which should be incorporated in one's diet appropriately. As a nutritionist, I see many people who "think" farina isn't a healthy choice, due to higher carbohydrate content (sadly due to excessive marketing - aka "the carb craze"). If you are carb conscious, just portion the Farina correctly. As we all know, the key to healthy eating habits is portioning your intake.

Farina is VERY Rich in proteins and Vitamins and has zero (0) Fat Content!! (saturated fat and trans fats included!) I have listed some of the vitamins and minerals below for review:

Vitamin E, Pantothenic Acid, Riboflavin B2, Choline, Vitamin D, Vitamin, Vitamin B12, Niacin B3- Minerals: Sodium, Zinc, Copper, high amounts of Calcium & Iron, Manganese, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium, even some Flouride

thank you for your time.
