What is the difference between unprocessed bran and wheat bran?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Processed bran is unprocessed bran that has been subject to a short cooking process known as extrusion by which the bran is subject to a temperature of 120 degree C and at a pressure of 5.9 MPa. Processed bran is commonly used in food items such as snacks, bread products, breakfast items to make them more digestible. The extrusion process usually renders processed bran with less dietary fiber than unprocessed bran.

What is the difference of sprouted wheat and wheat?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Quinoa seeds are coated with saponin, which has a bitter taste, so the seeds are usually rinsed before cooking. Most commercially sold quinoa has already gone through this step. Like many other beans, grains, and seeds, quinoa can also be sprouted. This allows it to be eaten raw (it can also be cooked in this form). To sprout quinoa, soak the seeds for 30 minutes, drain, and then leave damp seeds in a cool dark place for 12 hours (or until you notice little white roots from the seeds). You can sprout them in the refrigerator. Rinse again and eat!

The washed quinoa will have a less bitter taste than the sprouted quinoa.

Does brewers yeast contain wheat?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Simple answer: it depends. Brewer's yeast has more protein per ~30 g serving than wheat germ (16 g vs 6 g). Additionally, brewer's yeast has more fiber (6 g vs. 4 g) & fewer carbohydrates (13 g vs. 15 g), giving it a higher percentage fiber content per serving (~50 % of carbs compared to 25 % of carbs). This means it should be a lower glycemic food, a consideration worth noting for diabetics. Besides these facts, brewer's yeast has greater B vitamin content (all of the major B vitamins) than wheat germ. It has slightly lower folate content. Wheat germ has more mineral content for certain minerals (like manganese & zinc) than brewer's yeast, yet less copper, selenium, & chromium.

Does your question include the issue of "which food tastes better"? In terms of taste, brewer's yeast can be bitter (depending on the manufacturer), whereas wheat germ has a sweet flavor. Wheat germ (& perhaps brewer's yeast) may go rancid if not refrigerated/frozen.

The ultimate factor in determining which is best is evaluating which food best suits your needs without causing problems of excess. Situations such as protein need, carbohydrate requirements, & vitamin & mineral requirements should help you conclude what works for you.
