Whole Wheat (Whole Grain)

I'm always trying to buy whole food. Never knew what it is.
Today reading "The ABC DIET" book I found the answer.

Grains like wheat, corn, oats, barley, and rye are seeds that come from grasses, and they're broken into three parts - the germ, the bran , and the endosperm. Bran contains all minerals and fiber and germ where all the protein and vitamins are. When food manufactures process the refine grains bran and germ are removed and nutritional bankrupt endosperm is left.

Therefore, Whole Wheat (Whole Brain) includes germ and bran.
