Is flour potentially hazardous to your health?

Answer 1

Potentially, ANYTHING can be hazardous to your health. We require water to stay alive- but fall into a river and you drown. Flour is simply finely ground grain- usually wheat. With the exception of a very few people that have celiac disease, hundreds of millions of people safely eat flour every day. That is what bread, pies, Pizza, cakes, muffins, scones, Croissants, doughnuts, bagels and brownies are made from (and the breading mix on fried chicken)

Answer 2

Yes, flour is actually highly combustable when it is in the air. Explosions were not uncommon in early flour factories. Modern technology has made the processing much safer.
