About Wheatmeal bread

Wheatmeal bread is a wholesome, fiber-rich bread made primarily from wholemeal or whole-wheat flour, which retains the bran, germ, and endosperm of the wheat grain. Originating from traditional European baking, it is a staple in many cuisines worldwide and valued for its nutty flavor and dense, hearty texture. Packed with dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals, wheatmeal bread supports digestive health, promotes satiety, and provides long-lasting energy. Its complex carbohydrates offer a steady release of glucose, making it a better choice than refined white bread for managing energy levels. However, some varieties may contain added sugars, preservatives, or excess sodium, so it's important to choose minimally-processed options. For those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease, wheatmeal bread is not suitable due to its gluten content. Overall, it’s a nutritious and versatile choice for sandwiches, toasts, or as a side accompaniment to meals.
