Other good carbohydrates that are all high in fiber are: Quinoa, Amaranth, Millet, Buckwheat and Kasha (toasted buckwheat). Some people stay away from all rice because of the possible high glycemic index, but a limited or modest amount of WHOLE grain rices (there are many kinds) will help rather than hinder when eaten with a proper balanced diet as described above. Corn is questionable, because a lot of the corn on the market is GMO and anyone with tyramine intolerance will benefit by staying away from corn. However, I do agree with the article that it matters which carbohydrates a person eats. It is noted that quinoa actually has far more protein and fiber than wheat.
