Whole wheat contains vitamin A (eye health) and B (energy), fiber, (digestive health) healthy carbohydrates (more energy!), antioxidants, and protein (muscle health). These are all very healthy nutrients that support your body. In white bread, for example, the wheat germ (No, it's not bacteria!) is removed, so you miss out on important nutrients (Vitamin A,B, and antioxidants). So eat that whole wheat!

Effect of phytic acid in nutrition in wheat?

Wheat is high in phytic acid which binds to iron, zinc, calcium, and magnesium in your intestinal tract and keeps your body from absorbing all of these minerals. However, whole wheat is also high in the enzyme phytase that breaks down phytic acid. If you are using fresh milled whole wheat, phytic acid should not be a big concern.
