Wheat

Wheat provides a balance of high quality nutrients to sustain life. It is a great food storage item if you do not have gluten allergies.

A few helpful tips about wheat:

• Today's wheat has been genetically modified and is more allergenic than the original wheat grain
• Spelt is the most superior grain food available today. It is the ancient wheat grain unaltered by civilization. It has not been degenerated by hybridization or generation-after-generation exposure to pesticides and chemical fertilizers
• Hard Red and Hard White wheat have a higher protein content than soft wheat. You need to use wheat with a high protein content to make a high quality bread.

Please note the Whole Wheat Bread document is attached in two different formats (one is in Microsoft Publisher, and the other is an HTML document for those who do not have Publisher.)
