About Wheat bran

Wheat bran is the outer layer of the wheat kernel, separated during the milling process. Rich in dietary fiber, it’s a nutritional powerhouse that supports digestive health and promotes regularity. Packed with essential nutrients like manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, and B vitamins, wheat bran also contains antioxidants and plant compounds linked to various health benefits. Its high insoluble fiber content makes it a popular ingredient for improving gut health, supporting heart health by reducing cholesterol levels, and assisting with weight management due to its satiating qualities. Commonly used in baked goods, cereals, smoothies, and as a topping for yogurt, wheat bran is versatile and originates from wheat, a staple grain cultivated worldwide. However, it may not be suitable for individuals with gluten intolerance or celiac disease. Low in fat and sugars, wheat bran is a simple way to enhance the nutritional profile of your meals.
