What it is

Wheat flour is a common ingredient made from grinding wheat kernels. Enriched flour has specific vitamins and minerals added back after processing, including niacin (also known as Vitamin B3). This process helps restore nutrients lost during milling.

Why it's used

Enriched wheat flour is a staple in many baked goods and processed foods, serving as the primary structural ingredient. It is frequently found in breads, cereals, pasta, and baked snacks. Manufacturers use it because it provides texture, bulk, and a source of carbohydrates.

Health notes

Enriched wheat flour is a common ingredient in the US food supply. Niacin is an essential nutrient that plays a role in energy metabolism. The FDA regulates the enrichment of flour to ensure it meets certain nutrient levels. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated niacin and established acceptable daily intakes. Typical dietary intake of niacin from enriched flour is generally considered safe and contributes to meeting daily requirements.
