About Rye

Rye is a nutrient-dense whole grain widely cultivated in central and eastern Europe, playing a key role in cuisines like German and Nordic cooking. Known for its hearty, slightly sour flavor, rye is commonly used to make bread, crackers, and whiskey. This versatile grain is rich in dietary fiber, particularly a type called arabinoxylan, which supports digestive health and helps manage cholesterol levels. Rye also provides essential nutrients such as magnesium, iron, manganese, and B vitamins, promoting energy production and bone health. Its lower glycemic index compared to other grains makes rye a smart choice for maintaining stable blood sugar levels. Though rye is less refined than white flour, it may not be suitable for gluten-sensitive individuals, including those with celiac disease. Integrated into a balanced diet, rye offers a nourishing way to diversify grain intake while delivering tangible health benefits.
