Sometimes you just need a picture

Important to note not all cereal and grain products are bad but when you think about our governments diet recommendations for the last 40 years it is generally true we were told to consume massive amounts of highly processed grain products. Many highly refined products even carried the heart healthy logo. Many of these highly refined or processed products contained both the highly refined carbs from the the grains but also had large amounts of add carbs via added sugar.  Anytime we eat an all carb meal, especially highly processed carb meals they are quickly digested and absorbed...mostly stored as fat, and in about 30 minutes you are hungry again. These kinds of foods also stimulate hormones and changes in our GI flora that drive our hunger for them.
