Whole Wheat Flour vs White Flour

wheat kernelWhole Wheat Flour vs White Flour

If we are going to eat wheat, we have been advised to eat whole wheat products rather than white flour products – do you know why? Check out the above infographic! As you can see, the Bran layers and the Wheat germ are missing from white flour products. With white flour,  you are missing most of the fiber, and a lot of the nutrients.

Skip the white flour products – for good! – and start going with whole wheat or whole grain products. If you have a sensitivity to wheat, make sure you still choose healthy choices, such as brown rice versus white rice. It’s a very similar concept to whole wheat flour and white flour.

Bottom Line: Choose to use products that use the WHOLE grain, rather than parts of it.
