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.
