Benefits
Wheat is the humble backbone of so many comforting foods—think warm, fluffy bread, hearty pastas, and flaky pastries. It’s one of those ingredients that feels like home, bringing people together over the dinner table for centuries. I love experimenting with whole wheat flours in my baking for a nutty, earthy twist, and my kids never turn down homemade waffles (who would?). Wheat is versatile, wholesome, and a delicious way to add some fiber and essential nutrients to your daily meals. Here's the benefits:- Rich in Fiber: Supports digestion and helps maintain steady blood sugar levels throughout the day.
- Packed with B Vitamins: Offers energy-boosting nutrients like niacin, thiamine, and folate.
- Supports Heart Health: Whole wheat is associated with reduced cholesterol and improved heart health.
- Good Source of Protein: Contains about 13g of protein, aiding muscle repair and growth.
- Loaded with Antioxidants: Contains selenium and other plant compounds that help protect your cells from damage.
