Maximize Your Health with Freshly Milled Wheat

- Milling my own wheat is WAY better than store bought, but why? I mill my own wheat because it is healthier, provides what our body needs, and prevents a lot of diseases that have become common today. It's a simple answer with a lot of complex details. I have whole wheat bread recipes in a playlist link you will find below. There are links to some medical studies and products further down in this description.
Milling your own wheat gives you the most complete nutritional value from your bread. Bread can be a source of vitamins, minerals, Omega3, fiber, and protein. Bread made from commercially processed flour is devoid of most of that making it a carbohydrate heavy thing your body has to work harder to process.
In developed countries, a major source of iron for the diet might come from enriched flour. In the United States, flour enrichment was invented in the 1930s as commercially processed white flour's popularity grew. A review of white flour was conducted because of health concerns over the increase in instances of illnesses including Pellagra and Beriberi. Mineral and vitamin deficits are the root causes of Pellagra and Beriberi, respectively. The prevalence of Beriberi and Pellagra were cured by adding back in just enough B vitamins and iron to processed white flour.
Information on Pellagra
Pellagra is a disease caused by a lack of the vitamin niacin (vitamin B3). Symptoms include inflamed skin, diarrhea, dementia, and sores in the mouth. Areas of the skin exposed to either sunlight or friction are typically affected first. Over time affected skin may become darker, stiffen, peel, or bleed.
See more on Pellagra at en.wikipedia.o...
Information on Beriberi
A severe and chronic form of thiamine deficiency is known as Beriberi. Thiamine deficiency is a medical condition of low levels of thiamine (Vitamin B1). The two main types in adults are wet Beriberi and dry Beriberi. Wet Beriberi affects the cardiovascular system, resulting in a fast heart rate, shortness of breath, and leg swelling. Dry Beriberi affects the nervous system, resulting in numbness of the hands and feet, confusion, trouble moving the legs, and pain.

My wife has been milling our own wheat berries for several months now. We haven’t used store bought flour or bread of any kind since then. She’s a type 1 diabetic and I’m type 2. We have found that our blood glucose has stayed in far better control, our gut health is better than it’s ever been, and the bread products just plain taste better.
That is so great to hear! We have experienced the same with our gut health and our hypoglycemia is more stable. I’m so happy you all switched to milling!
Wow, what great information in easy to understand language and in less than 5 minutes. Everyone wants to yack for 30 minutes to give 5 minutes of information. Much appreciated, thank you.🥰
Glad it was helpful!
Even though I have studied about nutrition for a number of years I just recently found this information out. I knew that whole wheat flour purchased from the store wasn’t as nutritious as milling your own I didn’t know to what degree. After watching Sue Beckers videos I decided I’m going to start milling my own flour. Her stories about heath transformations is very inspiring. Thank you for your videos too.
Wonderful! Glad you made the decision to better your health!
Been milling for about a month now are it has been a game changer
So I was under the impression that I have a gluten intolerance and haven’t been able to eat products containing wheat flour in EIGHT YEARS. I just found out that I don’t have adverse reactions to fresh milled flour at all. So I’m all in, bought a wondermill and now I can eat eat w my family when flour is involved…at home at least.
Have you been able to eat fresh milled flour without any symptoms? I have sensitivity to gluten and thinking of trying to mill my own flour to see how I react
@harrisonobiorah I have not had any issues, but I have heard from many people that they didn’t have the issues they had when they switched to freshly milled. Do you have anyone who can give you a loaf?
@@TheWholesomeHomeI think that's a good idea. I'll check around. Many thanks for the reply :)
I personally had those health benefits happen to me I’ll never buy bagged flour ever again. It’s been three years now and I’ve lost weight eating my own milled items I’ve been taken off meds because of the fresh milled flour. My dr is addicted to my bread now too! Will never go back. Sue Becker Becker’s made the difference in my life and you give a very short but informative look. Keep up the good work.
That is great news! I’m so happy for you!
Thank you for the kind words too!
Great info! Just another one of those things that you don't think about when buying a bag of flour at the store-- but how simple (and better for you!!) it can be to make your own at home!
Yes! A lot of people don’t think or realize the difference. Thank you for your support!
Thank you for such a concise but will rounded explanation of why you should mill your own flour and make bread at home. I went down the rabbit whole of this with Sue Beckers RUclips seminars and I learned a ton. But when people ask me why or for a reference with the info I would pass on to them I hadn't yet found a video as comprehensive as her seminar... But honestly it's too long and I don't think most would watch it all the way through. So now I can send them your video! ♥️ Most people can keep attention for less than 5 minutes and they'll get the whole explanation in a short video straight to the point. So THANK YOU for making this.
THANK YOU for this. This made my week!
Same
You are most welcome!
same!
Same! 😂
I’ve already bought my mill thank you. Waiting on it now!
Maybe that is why we crave beef so much, the cows are getting the nutrients that we are missing.
Great video. The fiber in whole grain feeds the gut biome. It reduces cravings and helps with digestion and elimination, all lacking in refined flour. Our gut sends signals to our brain.
Exactly!
Thanks for this video. It is succinct, to the point and provides the pertinent information for someone who is starting to research milling their own flour.
Thank-you! You're the first video that finally has the actual nutrition information about the bread! I've watched tones of videos looking for it and finally found it! You're video is a gem.
I feel great since I started milling my own wheat and making my own bread and cookies etc. Super high energy levels and I feel great. It's cheap too!
You are so welcome!
I started milling two months ago I am 85 a young 85 I love how much better the bread and cakes tastes. I love making bread I hope to be bakeing for a long time. My family said they can feal the diffrence
We did too when we started! It’s wonderful!
I am a new subscriber and I am very interested in milling my own flour. I know nothing about this at all. I wish you would do more for the bread machines. I have the same one as you.
Very informative, definitely going to start milling mine own flour .
You’ll love it! Make sure to check out my other videos of milling and bread making. 🙂
Until your video I had no clue about flour and the stuff they take out of it that’s actually good for us 😮❤
Yes! Lots of people do not know. I hope to help bridge that educational gap. There is so much more information too! Make sure to check out the links in the description for more research/references on this information.
Pleasant Mill Grains sells small 6 vials of the original grain, bran extraction, middlings, wheat germ, wheat germ oil, and white flour for$24.00 . A great visual!!!
Thank you! I will look into that to show it!
The stuff they take out is not good for humans those are where the plant toxins are stored.
It’s to make it shelf stable, not because it is toxic. Yes, organic still uses some chemicals, and glyphosate has been known to be used to wheat, but organic not so much. At least where I get mine, because I asked.
This was the most educational video I’ve seen - thank you for the simple breakdown!
You are most welcome!
Well shoooooot now I gonna mill my own wheat…. Going to look up how to do that now. Thank you for sharing!
Hello! I just bought a grain mill. I'm waiting for it to come in! I do have a question. Shouldn't the heat off baking kill most of the nutrients in the flour? I see most people say that mills that too hot kill the nutrients in the flour. Why doesn't baking kill it?
Hi! So then you mix the ingredients together, enzymes start to work (fermentation) during the first rise. Protecting the nutrients. Plus you get all that delicious vitamins and minerals from the bran. 🙂
💯 starting to grind and make our own breads , trying to get away from relying on system
What about the taste? My wife and daughter love their sugary commercial white bread, and I typically eat honey wheat. Try as I might, I can’t seem to convert them. Now, I have baked exactly 0 loafs of bread in all my years, and wonder if I have been missing out on home milled flour baked bread. What are the chances that the flavor alone could convince my family of the need to make the hefty investment in everything (including time) to make our own flour and bread/ baked goods?
Great content ! Can’t wait to get home this evening so I can watch your videos ❤❤❤❤
Thank you!
Been looking at milling for a few months now. I think I’m gonna commit to homemade bread exclusively and a mockmill milling attachment for my kitchen aid.
Do it! You’ll feel better and have way less bloat/inflammation!
Great video, you explain it so simple.
Glad it was helpful!
I am going back and forth between eliminating wheat or getting a grinder. I know store bought flour is not healthy. Would appreciate thoughts on each option.
Many people have a preservative intolerance. I would suggest trying freshly milled wheat flour first. Just to see if you have a gluten intolerance/allergy.
Many people realize after switching just their bread that their GI tract is better ans they do not have the pain or discomfort.
Thank you for sharing this 🙏 wonderful information on whole wheat flour
Thank you. I just ordered some whole wheat berries
Have fun! There are several different types to experiment with!
Great video! Very informative. My wife would love to learn how to do this
Thank you! I have plenty of others that help teach. Have her check them out. 🙂 you can also share to help inform more people!
I strongly suspect the Food Pyramid is CORRECT!!!! But they gave us an inferior flour and Bread
Therefore erroring in those in Keto circle and those accept and eat grains/ breads as provided. Can you help me decipher my suspicions???
Our body (specifically brain) needs carbs. Carbs are necessary, but in limited amounts. Good bread, specifically from freshly milled wheat, gives us a lot of the daily intake for vitamins/minerals/omegas.
The store bought flour, they have to make it shelf stable to sell and last a long time. While it makes great fluffy cakes and cookies, it is just straight carbs. So, eating that bread makes your carbs higher because it doesn’t have the same nutritional value.
Think of it like this, back in the day, everyone had freshly milled wheat to make bread. They ground the grains, then mixed in oil, a sweet of some kind, and most likely used a sourdough starter. (Or they took out the sourdough to make a flatter bread.) In this time, there was less diseases and people were much healthier, lived longer, and more.
Yes, the food pyramid was a lot more correct when the flour had all the nutrients it was supposed to have .
(I hit send before I could type that at the bottom.) 😅
I Thank you for this video.!!!! In the past I was a proponent of a Keto diet. Carbs wher not good and to be avoided. Now I have come to understand the importance and health benefits of freshly milled grains. Can you help me with resources that educated you in the nutrition of freshly milled whole grain?
I put some links in the description, which should help. Or are you wanting a video or podcast to listen to?
@@TheWholesomeHome Everything you can help aid in understanding.
Here is my understanding.
Biblically I see the word meat means food. And in various verses it refers to bread.
Freshly milled grains.
@@TheWholesomeHome Thank you!!
Thank you!
Just bought a mill and grains. Now to find good recipes, help!
What kinds of things are you looking to make? I can help you with recipes for sure. I have videos up for pizza, cinnamon rolls, and bread. I can help you with more too.
Good Job
Thank you!
Currently my husband has gotten gout. His diet is of refined foods. Any quick references to information on how whole grains do not contribute to such diseases?
Link: www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/gout-diet/art-20048524
Having the complete Wheat berry, meaning freshly milled, gives you the whole grain nutrients. Whole grain on refined store bought may have some wheat bran put back in, but it may not be from those wheat berries. It can be bran from another source or left over from another milling period. Therefore the nutritional benefit is possibly lost due to the oxidation.
Plus, the benefits of freshly milled outweigh the moderate purine level.
Hope this helps!
@@TheWholesomeHome Thank you for responding!!
I pray he and my children will be satisfied with good and the wholesome!!! So sad to see the pain of loved ones . May they not call evil good and good evil!!!
But call evil evil and good good!
I just milled some hard white wheat berries and put it in my bread maker and it didn't rise. Any suggestions for a newbie?
Can you tell me what you did and what machine you are using?
How can we extract the gluten fro the freshly milled grain?
Do you have a course to teach the nutrition?
Hi! Sorry for it to take me a few to reply. I had to research some on your gluten question. Extracting the gluten isn’t an easy process. Is there a reason why you want to extract the gluten?
Have not thought of making a course to teach nutrition. That is something I’ll consider. Thank you for the idea!
I buy King Arthur whole wheat flour. The ingediants say "100% whole wheat". It has a "best by" date of about a year. You say whole wheat flour goes rancid in days. I must be missing something here. Not making sense. Help me understand this.
The flour you buy is 100% whole wheat, but it is not 100% of what wheat contains. When the flour is processed to make it shelf stable, the majority of the healthy fiber, vitamins, minerals, and oils are removed. Milling wheat berries right before use gives you all the nutrients you can get from wheat and provides much of what your body needs.
To help it make sense, I'll give an example that is a bit ridiculous, but i feel it makes the point. If I gave you a pile of orange peels, it would for sure be 100% real orange I gave you, but you'd be missing the best part.
Thanks for the response. That sounds like awfully deceptive advertising. If that's true then they are removing part of the whole wheat berry. So any part of the wheat berry could be called "whole wheat". For example gluten could be called "whole wheat' or unfortified white flour could be called "whole wheat".@@TheWholesomeHome
Can you share any information about good wood for Pasta boards
I would go with a birch or maple board. You want a tight grained wood for that. I’m experimenting with pasta myself. I haven’t mastered it yet. 😅
Does anyone know if its possible to store freshly milled flour in the freezer just to prolong the life and prevent it from going rancid. I'm hoping to store it for no longer than 2 weeks of possible only because I'd like to mill different grains together in bulk to save time etc. Thanks
You can do that. I’m not sure how fast it would go rancid that way. Make sure it’s in an air tight container too.
Brilliant. I shall do! I'll give it a try thanks
where can you purchase wheat
Hi! I have links for Azure standard in my profile. I also am part of a Bread Becker’s co-op.
Would it be ok to use my vitamix on a low setting to grind my wheat berries?
You can, but it may not get it as finely powdered as you may want. I haven’t tried it, but that would be my only concern.
I do use my blender to make grits though!
I have a seperate dry container for my Vitamix. I'm not sure if all models have this option, but mine does a great job! Be careful not to put too much in at a time, because it will get hot and as was stated, too much heat may reduce some of the health benefits.
Happy Baking! 😊
I do mine in the Vitamix. Made bread from it today. Learned you can freeze the berries prior to putting it in the Vitamix and that significantly reduces the heating concern.
Ironically, I found that the wet Vitamix container does a finer milling than the dry container and seems to do it faster as well.
Interesting! That is good to know!
The nutritional information at 2:30 is that for STORE BOUGHT or is that for FRESHLY MILLED? If it's for store bought, do you have one for freshly milled?
Whole Wheat is the nutritional content of Milled Wheat in that graphic all the way to the left. The other two are store flours.
Where can we mill our own wheat? Or how is the process?
You can buy your own electric mill like I have or, if you are local to them in Georgia, Bread Becker’s can mill your wheat for you.
Once the wheat is cracked, it will go rancid in about 3 days due to the natural oils in the wheat. You’ll have to use the flour before then.
No wonder's, nowadays, our children's, our own , body's are not so strong than early's...
And how many diseases we have!
Store-bought flour is not non-nutritive, It is merely less nutritious.
at 02:28 it shows that store flour has nutrients, it just also shows that her wheat has more.
I think it depends on who you ask, or what is important to you. Artificial added in ingredients or natural?
@@TheWholesomeHome no. It doesn’t. If you get the facts and look at non-biased sources, scientific analysis will tell you that I am correct. If you feel something is better, it doesn’t make it true.
The science says freshly milled wheat has more vitamins, minerals, nutritious components overall. Make sure to check out the links I posted in the description. We may just have to agree to disagree.
