I have a question about what to eat when my stomach is empty. When it comes to French Bread, bagels etc....when I read the packaging it says it contains enriched wheat flour, even the all purpose unbleached flour I use says it contains enriched wheat flour. Is this safe to eat even though it contains wheat? Are there substitutes with no wheat? Or is it just whole wheat that I am supposed to stay away from? Thank you.

The high insoluble fiber content of whole wheat and other whole cereal grains it the problem. Enriched white flour is safe.

I believe most white flour is enriched . When flour is milled some of the nutrients are destroyed and these nutrients are added back to enrich it.
