[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But the thread about American bread told me American flour was bad! [/quote] It is. It has dangerful chemicals in it like niacin and folates in it. [/quote] "Dangerous?" I think you mean "essential nutrients?" "Folates" are vitamin B9, and its synthetic form, folic acid, which is prescribed to pregnant women as a supplement to prevent birth defects. Non pregnant people generally get enough folates via their food, like...bread. Other foods containing folates are green leafy vegetables, beans, peas and nuts, oranges, lemons, bananas, melons and strawberries. Do you avoid those foods, as well? https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements-folate/art-20364625 Niacin is vitamin B3, a water soluble vitamin which is essential to synthesizing food. Adult women need 18 mg/day. If you ate 1.75 cups of straight flour, you'd just get your daily requirement. https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/niacin-benefits[/quote]
