Do you prefer regular wheat flour or whole wheat flour when you go grocery shopping? Don't worry, we're here to help you understand these concepts so you can make healthier choices the next time you go grocery shopping. But not all flours are created equal. Since white flour is made from refined and processed wheat grains, it has a low nutritional value. Wheat germ and bran give the flour a richer colour and nutritious value.
High in Fiber
Organic whole-wheat flour is abundant in fibre, which prevents constipation, lowers blood cholesterol, and may aid weight loss. Because the fiber-rich bran is separated from the remainder of the grain during the refining process, white flour contains less fibre than whole-grain flour.
Regulates Blood Sugar
- Any carbohydrate-rich dish, whether made with whole wheat or white flour has an impact on your blood sugar levels
- The Glycemic Index, or GI, of a food is a measurement of how rapidly this happens. When compared to conventional wheat flour, whole wheat flour has a lower GI. This helps you digest your food more effectively and keeps your blood sugar from quickly rising or plummeting.
Improves Gut Health
- It helps break down the good bacteria in your gastrointestinal system and improves digestion. It can also help you increase nutritional uptake in your body as it contains a variety of vitamins, including B-1, B-3, and B-5, which keep your gut health in check.
