Whole grains deliver superior taste and nutrition,
especially when it’s fresh ground daily in the
bakery – Great Harvest style!
The USDA has
recommended eating six ounces of grains each day and
to “Make Half Your Grains Whole”. At Great Harvest,
we agree! We also believe that eating healthy should
taste great and that the best taste comes from the
freshest ingredients. That’s why we fresh grind our
flour everyday! You will taste the difference in
breads made with the freshest, most flavorful
ingredients and you’ll benefit from superior whole
grain nutrition.
All parts of the grain are present in whole grains.
The wheat kernel consists of three parts: the bran,
the germ and the endosperm. The bran is fiber rich!
Fiber helps keep your digestive system healthy. Many
studies have shown that diets high in fiber may help
decrease the risk of heart disease, diabetes and
some forms of cancer. The bran also contains
B-vitamins, antioxidants and 50 percent of the
grain’s minerals!

The small but powerful germ is full of many B
vitamins, vitamin E, some protein and healthy
unsaturated fats.
The endosperm is mostly starchy carbohydrates,
proteins and small amounts of B vitamins.
You can see that by removing any part of the kernel
you would be missing out on a lot of valuable
nutrition. In fact, the processing of white flour
removes 25 percent of the protein and 17 key
nutrients. By keeping all three parts in our fresh
milled flour, all the nutrients work together to
create awesome tasting breads that may reduce your
risk of chronic diseases and play a role in weight
management.
We invite you to come and taste “the whole grain
difference” at your nearest Great Harvest bakery.
