Why can't children eat too much whole grains?

Male  3 years old 2018-04-18
Coarse grains are good for health, so I have been letting my children eat coarse grains again, but my mother reminded me not to let my kids eat too much coarse grains. What's going on?

    Coarse grains are difficult to digest, so children should not consume too much coarse grains. Because the development of children's digestive organs is not perfect, the secretion of digestive enzymes is not perfect, the digestion and absorption capacity is poor, and eating too many rough foods can cause indigestion. In addition, coarse grains will affect the digestion and absorption of calcium, iron, zinc and other minerals, which is detrimental to children's growth and development.
