Unbleached wheat flour IS bleached by oxygen in the air during an aging process. Bleached flour uses chemicals (which may be dangerous to your health) to speed up the process. Unbleached flour will be off-white in color but nutritionally, bleached and unbleached flours are equivalent (very little nutritional value). In BOTh these flours the bran and germ have been removed (degerminated), making it a processed white flour.

Whole wheat flour and a variation called Graham flour include the germ and bran of the grain, which contain most of the oil, protein and vitamins. These are removed from white flour, which is then "enriched" with a few artificial vitamins. Most all-purpose flour is chemically bleached, but unbleached white flour is also available.
