celozrnnými

Celozrnné refers to food products made from whole grains. In Czech, "celozrnné" directly translates to "whole grain" or "wholemeal". This means that the entire grain kernel, including the bran, germ, and endosperm, is used in the production of the food. This is in contrast to refined grains, where the bran and germ are typically removed, leaving only the starchy endosperm.

The bran is the outer layer of the grain and is a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. The germ is the embryo of the seed and contains healthy fats, vitamins, and antioxidants. The endosperm is the largest part of the grain and primarily contains carbohydrates and protein.

Consuming celozrnné products offers several health benefits due to the presence of these nutrient-rich components. They are generally higher in dietary fiber, which aids digestion, promotes satiety, and can help regulate blood sugar levels. They also provide a wider range of vitamins, such as B vitamins, and minerals like iron, magnesium, and zinc, compared to their refined counterparts.

Common examples of celozrnné foods include celozrnný chléb (whole wheat bread), celozrnné těstoviny (whole wheat pasta), and celozrnná mouka (whole wheat flour). When shopping for these products, consumers should look for labels that clearly indicate "celozrnné" or "whole grain" as the primary ingredient.
