About Crached wheat

Cracked wheat, a versatile grain made by crushing whole wheat kernels, is a staple in Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and Indian cuisines. Packed with nutrients, it retains the bran and germ layers, making it rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals like magnesium, phosphorus, and B vitamins. Often used in dishes like tabbouleh, pilafs, and porridges, cracked wheat provides sustained energy, supports digestive health, and aids in heart health due to its fiber content. It's a complex carbohydrate, which means it releases energy slowly, helping stabilize blood sugar levels. Cracked wheat is low in fat and sodium but does contain gluten, making it unsuitable for those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease. Easy to cook and highly nutritious, cracked wheat is an excellent choice for anyone looking to incorporate whole grains into their diet for better overall health.
