nswer: Dear Ronnie,
whole grains are cereal
grains (mostly grasses)
that contain the intact bran (hard
outer layer of grain), germ (the re-
productive part), and endosperm
(tissue produced in the seeds near
the time of fertilization).

In contrast, refined or processed
grains are distinguished from
whole gains by virtue of hav-
ing been significantly modified
from their natural com-
position. Most often that
change consists of the bran
;ii. and germ having been
mechanically stripped
-
from the grain through
grinding or sifting.
(
\ Further refining may
I include mixing, bleach-
ing, and brominating
(combine with bromine
atoms), usually, for the
purposes of ease of use,
altering taste, or extend-
ing product shelf life.

As you know or might suspect,
processed/refined grains have
many of their nutrients substan-
tially diminished during the
refining process. Those lost whole
grain nutrients include fiber,
protein, B vitamins and vitamin
E, calcium, iron, magnesium,
potassium, zinc, and others.

I hope you find this helpful.
