What it is
Anthograin Wheat is a type of wheat that has been processed to enhance its nutritional profile and texture. It is derived from specific wheat varieties and undergoes a proprietary milling and heat treatment process. This process aims to make the grain more digestible and to preserve its natural nutrients.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use Anthograin Wheat for its nutritional benefits and unique texture, often adding it to products where whole grains are desired. It can contribute a slightly nutty flavor and a satisfying chew. It is commonly found in snack bars, granola bars, and other baked goods.
Health notes
Anthograin Wheat is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. As a whole grain, it provides dietary fiber and nutrients. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated wheat and its components. Evidence suggests that whole grains are part of a healthy diet, but specific health benefits of Anthograin Wheat itself have not been extensively studied independently.
Allergen info
Anthograin Wheat is derived from wheat, which is one of the nine FDA major allergens. It also contains gluten.
