About Atta
Atta, a staple ingredient in Indian cuisine, is finely ground whole wheat flour known for its rich, earthy flavor and dense texture. Commonly used to prepare traditional flatbreads like chapati, roti, and paratha, Atta is made from hard wheat, which retains the bran and germ during milling, making it a more nutritious alternative to refined white flour. It is packed with dietary fiber, essential vitamins such as B-complex, and minerals like magnesium and iron, contributing to improved digestion and sustained energy release. Atta has a lower glycemic index compared to refined flours, supporting better blood sugar management. While inherently nutritious, moderation is key as overconsumption of carbohydrate-rich foods like Atta can lead to weight gain or imbalanced diets. Its versatility and nutrient profile make Atta a cornerstone of wholesome, balanced meals across South Asian households and beyond.
