I have to disagree with that statement. Whole grains are a naturally growing item. Humans screw them all up through processing to make bleached white flour for Wonderbread and pretty, white rice. Left in their natural state - whole grains with the husks and brown rice with the exterior, and they are a very good, neccessary, natural food source.
As with everything, it's all about balance.
