celozrnných

Celozrnných is a Czech adjective meaning "whole grain." It refers to products made from the entire grain kernel, including the bran, germ, and endosperm. In contrast, refined grains have had the bran and germ removed, leaving only the starchy endosperm.

Whole grain products are a good source of dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Fiber is important for digestive health and can help with feelings of fullness, potentially aiding in weight management. Whole grains also contain essential nutrients such as B vitamins, iron, magnesium, and selenium.

Common examples of celozrnných foods include whole wheat bread (celozrnný chléb), whole wheat pasta (celozrnné těstoviny), brown rice (hnědá rýže), oats (ovesné vločky), barley (ječmen), and quinoa (quinoa). When shopping for these products, consumers should look for labels that explicitly state "celozrnný" or "whole grain" as the primary ingredient. While "multigrain" (vícezrnný) products contain multiple types of grains, they may not necessarily be whole grain. It is the inclusion of all parts of the grain kernel that defines a product as celozrnných.
