TLDR
Similar associations of whole grains and cereal fiber with weight, BMI, waist circumference, plasma cholesterol, and 2-h glucose were observed, suggesting that cereal fiber and its constituents may in part mediate these relations.About:

TL;DR: The symposium “Putting the Whole Grain Puzzle Together” sponsored by the ASN brought together researchers to review the evidence regarding the health benefits associated with whole grains and highlighted the need for further research to examine the role of whole grain foods in disease prevention and management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Consumption of cereal fiber, mixtures of whole grains and bran, and whole grains and risk reduction in type 2 diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease
TL;DR: It is found that consumption of foods rich in cereal fiber or mixtures of whole grains and bran is modestly associated with a reduced risk of obesity, T2D, and CVD.

Estimation of the Concentration of Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol in Plasma, Without Use of the Preparative Ultracentrifuge
TL;DR: A method for estimating the cholesterol content of the serum low-density lipoprotein fraction (Sf0-20) is presented and comparison of this suggested procedure with the more direct procedure, in which the ultracentrifuge is used, yielded correlation coefficients of .94 to .99.

Antioxidant Activity of Grains
Kafui Kwami Adom,Rui Hai Liu +1 more
TL;DR: Bound phytochemicals could survive stomach and intestinal digestion to reach the colon, and may partly explain the mechanism of grain consumption in the prevention of colon cancer, other digestive cancers, breast cancer, and prostate cancer, which is supported by epidemiological studies.

Position of the American Dietetic Association: health implications of dietary fiber.
TL;DR: Fiber is one of the structural and storage polysaccharides and lignin in plants that are not digested in the human stomach and small intestine, and it is associated with a lower risk of colon cancer.
