What it is

Organic sprouted whole wheat consists of whole wheat grains that have been allowed to germinate, meaning they have just begun to sprout. "Organic" indicates that the wheat was grown and processed according to organic farming standards, without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.

Why it's used

This ingredient is primarily used in baked goods like breads, buns, and cereals. Sprouting can alter the grain's texture, making it softer, and may enhance its nutritional profile and digestibility.

Health notes

Whole wheat is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) as a food ingredient by the FDA. Whole grains, including sprouted whole wheat, are considered a healthy part of a balanced diet. JECFA and EFSA do not typically evaluate basic food ingredients like whole wheat.

Allergen info

Wheat is one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA.
