Whole Wheat Flour

The theory of modern flour milling
ate the -four substances contained in
the wheat kernel from the less easily
digested shell particles. II is interest
ing to ascertain the reason for this
practice and why IL is that the con-
tents of the entire grain, as provided
by nature, are not used for making
flour and bread. The prevailing idea
is that bran is unsuitable for human
beings and particularly for bread
making. because Of the indigestible
qualities of thebran. The public de-
mands white bread, and to meet this
demand the natural color OF the -four
is improved" by artificial means, and
is treated by chemical processes such
as bleaching.
Hygienists and millers well know
that the most nutritious substances Of
the wheat kernel are contained in the
hulls and not in the -four body. There
fore, our main task is TO render the
nutrients Of the bran digestible. Bran
is now mainly used as food for ami
mails, but since there are many other
sources which could be used for this

This important subject, dealing with
the chief OF human nourishment, has
been under investigation and discus

hygienists and chemists. Some time

of Bonn, Germany, placed on the mar
