Among many, that one whole wheat turns out to be the best nutritionally as there are all the nutrients of the grain. That 00 instead, it is the most refined and there is no bran (which is rich in fibre) and the wheat germ which contains vitamins, amino acids and other substances; however, it contains starch and very little protein.

However, people continue undisturbed not only to buy it but also to eat it without any problems. But what you should know is that this flour is very rich in sugars and for this reason it creates an increase in the glycemia and the accumulation of deposited fats; there are also those who argue that it causes weakening of the body which causes diseases, including tumors.
