User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Processing white flour removes 26 nutrients including vitamins, essential oils, protein and fiber. Most white flour is also bleached which adds harmful chemicals to it. White flour stores better because there are not enough nutrients in it to sustain bugs and rodents, who do appreciate the nutritional value of whole grain flour!

Is enriched wheat flour a whole grain?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Answer 2There are not enough enriching vitamins and minerals in enriched flour products for even a small child to eat enough flour to overdose on the vitamins and minerals. Enriched flour is NOT "just flour with vitamins and minerals added to improve the nutritional value"

The flour processors, in processing whole grain wheat into "WHITE" flour [also referred to as "Enriched"flour], in effect "grind off all the good stuff," leaving nothing but almost pure starch.

When they finish milling the flour, there are NO vitamins,minerals, or FIBER left, they are all removed in the milling process. In order to give it some nutritional value, they then add-back SOME vitamins and minerals, but the result is NOT NEARLY so nutritious as if they had simply ground the whole wheat grain into flour. But then, the flour would not be "white," and "pretty."

Now, today, IF one keeps up with the large number of health studies, we see results of recent clinical studies that confirm what my doctor told me nearly 30 years ago.

Again, the answer to the question whether enriched flour [highly processed "white" flour] is bad for you, the answer is a resounding yes.

What characteristic of modern wheat flour makes it possible to produce an elastic yeast-fermented dough Why was it not possible for prehistoric people to make dough from the earliest wild grains?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Two possible reasons:

  1. The wild grains they had domesticated at that point in history might not have had sufficient gluten content to be very elastic.
  2. They didn't know where yeast came from.

If you think about the story of the Exodus in the Old Testament, the part where the Jews had to flee Egypt and didn't have time to let the dough for their bread rise refers to the fact that back in Biblical times, they didn't just buy yeast like we do today; they had to wait and hope for ambient yeast from the atmosphere to be attracted to the prepared dough. That could have taken a few days. Hence unleavened bread (matzo).
