Ingredient
Unbleached Enriched Flour
Scout's take
Refined wheat flour stripped of bran and germ, then enriched with synthetic niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, and folic acid. Folic acid is the synthetic form of folate that accumulates unmetabolized in the bloodstream.
More from Scout's analyses
This is a refined flour that has been enriched with vitamins and minerals. It lacks the fiber and nutrients found in whole grain flour. The enrichment process adds back some nutrients lost during processing.
