The wheat grain is, in fact, made up of three main parts: the bran (outer layer rich in fibre), the endosperm (middle part rich in starch) and the germ (inner part rich in nutrients). The endosperm is the only part used to make white bread and bakery products.

The three parts of the wheat put together provide us with:

• Vitamins, fibre and nutrients from the germ
• Proteins from the starchy endosperm
• Fibre from the bran.

The whole grain wheat contains some A, B and E vitamins, some folic acid, iron, zinc and some minerals such as selenium and magnesium. It contains most of the nutrients necessary to the human organism.

Scientists have associated the whole grain wheat with better physical and mental health. They also say that eating whole grains lessens the risk of diabetes, that the wheat bran fibre protects against colon cancer and that people who eat more whole grains have a lower risk of heart diseases.

Wheat dishes de Savor gives the opportunity to get plenty of fibre with each meal. A new scientific research shows that a high fibre diet helps reduce tiredness, helps feel better and improves energy level. Professor Andrew Smith of Cardiff University who conducted the study commented that "The physical benefits of a high fibre diet have been widely acknowledged amongst health care professionals for many years, however this is the first time high fibre intake has been associated with improved mental health."

The whole grain wheat is also said to have favourable effects on the skin, the vision and fertility.
