What nutritionist says:
Wholemeal flour is less processed and unbleached, it is made with the whole wheat grain, resulting in most of its nutrients being retained. This makes it a great alternative to regular refined flour. Refined flour is only made with one part of the wheat grain, making it poor in nutrients and vitamins. It is also bleached to give it that white color, which results in a chemical breakdown that removes most of its nutrients. Therefore, it is always best to choose whole-grain flours instead of refined flours.
