Wheat

Wheat is a grass that is widely grown for its seed, a cereal grain that is a common diet all over the world. The genus Triticum is made up of numerous kinds of wheat. Around 9600 BCE, according to the archaeological record, wheat cultivation began in the Fertile Crescent.

In addition to being a major source of starch and energy, wheat also provides substantial amounts of a number of components which are essential or beneficial for health, notably protein, vitamins (notably B vitamins), dietary fiber, and phytochemicals.

Wheat is not bad for most people. Wheat is a good source of fiber, essential vitamins, and minerals. Eating both refined and unrefined whole wheat is not bad for health but whole wheat is healthier because all the nutrients are intact. Gluten-containing foods like wheat, rye, and barley are essential for good health.
