Many whole foods contain 5 or more grams of fiber, and in their whole,
unprocessed form, would be highly supportive of health. When foods are
processed, however, most or all of this fiber is often lost.For
example, most breads sold nationally in the United States use a 60%
extraction process in which 60% of the original wheat grain is kept in
the flour, but 40% is discarded. The discarded part of the wheat
includes the bran and the germ; these two components of the grain
contain virtually all of its fiber.
