About

Wholemeal bread is a type of bread made with whole wheat flour. It is a healthier alternative to white bread as it contains more fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Wholemeal bread is also known as whole wheat bread, brown bread, or whole grain bread. It is usually denser and darker in color than white bread, and has a nutty flavor. Wholemeal bread is a great source of complex carbohydrates, which provide energy and help keep you feeling full for longer. Wholemeal bread can be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet, and is a great way to add more whole grains to your meals.
