Your top questions on Weet-Bix™ answered

Written By Sophie Cartwright

The Grains & Legumes Nutrition Council’s Whole Grain Week is here! We’re bringing you Jessica Ferguson, the Weet-Bix™ Dietitian to answer your top questions about Weet-Bix™.

We cover: 

  • What are Weet-Bix™ made of?

  • What does 100% wholegrains mean?

  • How many wholegrains in Weet-Bix™?

  • Why you should eat wholegrains

  • How many wholegrains to aim for each day

  • Nutrition & health benefits of Weet-Bix™

  • Dietitian’s top ways to eat Weet-Bix™

One-liners you don’t want to miss:

“We can look at what Aussie’s are purchasing and when we look at the most recent data we see that only 1/3 of the recommended daily serves of grains and cereals foods were actually those that were whole grain or high in fibre. This is quite low and a steady decline from the previous 3-4 years.”

“Weet-Bix can be that vehicle to top with your favourite chopped fruit, milk of choice, low fat yoghurt, sprinkle of nuts and seeds and you pretty quickly have a well-rounded brekkie.”

We hope you enjoyed this conversation - for more podcast action, follow us on Instagram @up_statuss.
