About Wheat bread

Wheat bread, a staple in many cuisines worldwide, is made primarily from wheat flour, water, yeast, and sometimes salt or sweeteners. Originating from ancient agricultural societies, its popularity has grown due to its versatility and mild flavor. Unlike white bread, wheat bread often retains more of the grain's bran and germ, making it a source of dietary fiber, essential vitamins, and minerals. Fiber can support digestion and heart health, while nutrients like B vitamins promote energy metabolism. However, its nutritional profile can vary depending on the level of refinement and added ingredients. Whole wheat bread is often considered a healthier option, as it uses entire grains, ensuring higher fiber and nutrient content. Some varieties may contain added sugars or preservatives, reducing their health appeal. Overall, wheat bread can be a balanced addition to a diet when chosen carefully and eaten in moderation.
