Eat The Whole Grain To Get The Whole Benefit
For a food to be made from whole grain, it must include all edible parts of the grain, each of which has its
own benefits: -Bran: The bran is a key source of fiber as well as B vitamins, and it gives whole grain products their texture.
-Germ: The germ is a source of minerals, protein, vitamins B and E, and healthy oils. The oils contribute most of the flavor
to whole grain foods. -Endosperm: This is the outer layer of the grain and provides some protein but consists mostly of starch.
Most bread and pasta products made from processed grain use mostly this outer layer and discard the bran and germ, which are
the sources of most of a grain’s nutrients.

About Our Bread
Nature knows best
Great Harvest bread is an excellent choice for
people interested in good health and nutrition! Whole wheat products are naturally low in fat, while containing high levels
of complex carbohydrates and fiber. At Great Harvest we stone-grind out Montana spring wheat. We use the entire wheat berry
-- nothing added, nothing taken away.
All calories are not created equal
Although our calorie counts are similar
to other breads, the natural bran, vitamin-E-rich wheat germ, B-vitamins, protein, and iron, as well as the lack of fats and
preservatives make Great Harvest breads outstandingly nutritious.
"Nutritious into Delicious"
Believe it or not, good nutrition is not our primary
goal! Our whole reason for being here is to make the best, tastiest loaf of bread we can. Our motto is "BREAD, KEEP IT SIMPLE."
Good, natural nutrition is just a bonus!
About our ingredients
In addition to the finest, freshly ground, high protein
wheat flour, our breads contain only the best ingredients we can find. We DO NOT use preservatives in any of our breads. All
of our basic breads contain LITTLE or NO FAT -- just good, wholesome, guilt-free nutrition!
