Do you know how to take bran Wheat, the benefits and the harm of which were repeatedly considered by leading nutritionists? The influence of this product is ambiguous. With the right approach, it helps to fill the deficit of missing substances. But this does not mean that bran can be in any quantity. Rational power is to comply with the balance between the receipt of elements. For Bran, as for any other additive, there are rules and feedbacks.

Bran is a secondary product obtained by flour production. It consists of external solid and hard grain shells.

The basic value of bran is the high content of coarse fibers.

The fiber must be present in the diet of any person. Vegetable fibers stimulate the work of the gastrointestinal tract. Their lack acutely affects not only on digestion, but also on metabolic processes throughout the body.

Rough fibers have low nutritional value. They are not digested in the stomach and the small intestine, but they are successfully decomposed in the lower gastrointestinal departments, turning into the oligo and polysahara.

Complex carbohydrates become food and a stimulant growth of useful bacteria. Food enriched with rich fibers contributes to the restoration of the inner flora, so bran can be used to prevent dysbacteriosis.

Vegetable fibers not only create conditions for the growth of beneficial microorganisms, but also mechanically stimulate the work of the gastrointestinal tract. The swollen fiber in the water is cutting the walls of the intestinal tube, causing a response. The stretched muscles of the digestive tract, trying to return to the initial form, are actively reduced. As a result, peristalism is enhanced. Food is faster advanced on the gastrointestinal departments.

The intestinal tract must receive the necessary load daily. This reduces the likelihood of atony, constipation and diseases arising on the basis of digestion disorders.

The fiber actively binds cholesterol, prevents its excessive absorption. A diet rich in vegetable fibers is effective in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, ischemic heart disease and hypertension.

Bran useful people suffering from diabetes mellitus. They lower the glycemic food index, linking the surplus glucose. Thus, the plant supplement can be used to prevent diabetes, as well as to be included in the diet of those who are already struggling with this disease.

Rough fibers are an effective natural sorbent. They absorb the toxins resulting from the oxidation of food, take care of heavy metals, neutralize the products of metabolism.

Thus, bran replenish the deficit of nutritional fibers. Their influence positively affects the metabolism in the whole body. Brasubi reduce the level of stabbing, contribute to the extension of youth and health.

Composition and calorie

For a long time, bran were considered an unnecessary product. In the outer shells of the grain, there are many fatty acids, due to which products from solid grain are quickly deteriorating. To extend the shelf life of white flour, they are trying to purify the most from coarse impurities.

White flour has a higher commodity and consumer value. It is much more often used in the food industry. In the 20th century, bran practically disappeared from the human diet.

White flour is nutritious whole grain, as it consists of easily digestible starch and simple sugars. But it has a low biological value, it has significantly less indispensable acids, vitamins and minerals.

Cuts do not have such a large food value, but they play a major role in the replenishment of biologically important compounds.

The husk contains much more useful substances than wheat grain itself and flour received from it.

In coarse shell lies a small amount of energy (216 kcal). They are practically no sugars (0.4%), but there is a huge amount of dietary fiber (43% against 10% in solid grain).

Due to the high protein content (16%), the waste of flour production is sufficiently nutritious. Compared to the source product, bran contain two times more useful fatty acids (4.3%), including irreplaceable. The outer shells of grain are rich in vitamins group B, which are responsible for the growth and updating of cells and tissues.

Food additive is rich in minerals. When burning 100 g bran, 5 g of the ash residue is formed. In the non-burning substrate contains such trace elements as phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron and zinc.

Day of use per day

According to information from different sources, the standard of consumption of bran per day is from 16 to 50-60. It is possible to navigate by the number of teaspoons. One unit contains 4 g of product. On average, manufacturers recommend to eat 2 teaspoons 2-3 times a day.
