🦋

Thyroid 141% DV

Selenium (undefined% DV) converts T4 to active T3. Essential for thyroid function.

🏥

Pcos

magnesium + zinc. Insulin resistance drives 70%+ of PCOS. These nutrients improve insulin sensitivity, reduce androgen.

🏥

Hypothyroid

selenium + zinc. Thyroid hormone synthesis requires iodine + tyrosine for T4 structure, selenium for T4→T3 conversion.

🩸

Iron 59% DV

59% DV. Supports red blood cells and oxygen transport. Low iron = fatigue, brain fog.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Wheat bran, crude a good protein source?
Yes. Wheat bran, crude provides 15.55g of protein per 100g — that's 31% of the daily value. As a plant protein, combine with complementary sources (grains, nuts) for complete amino acid profile.
How does Wheat bran, crude support gut health?
Wheat bran, crude contains 42.8g of fiber per 100g (153% DV). Fiber feeds beneficial gut bacteria, which produce short-chain fatty acids (butyrate) that reduce inflammation, strengthen the gut barrier, and improve insulin sensitivity. The high fiber content also slows glucose absorption, reducing insulin spikes.
Does Wheat bran, crude affect hormones?
Yes — Wheat bran, crude is rich in fiber (153% DV), which Binds excess estrogen in gut for excretion (enterohepatic circulation interruption). Slows glucose absorption → lower insulin spikes.. fiber supports Estrogen and Insulin production. magnesium supports Testosterone and Cortisol production. selenium supports T3 (active thyroid) and Testosterone production.
Is Wheat bran, crude good for blood pressure?
Yes. Wheat bran, crude provides 1182mg of potassium per 100g (25% DV). Potassium helps lower blood pressure by counteracting sodium's effects and relaxing blood vessel walls. The sodium-to-potassium ratio is 591.0.
Does Wheat bran, crude contain anti-nutrients?
Phytates (especially in whole grains — bind zinc, iron, calcium). Lectins (wheat germ agglutinin — reduced by cooking). Sourdough fermentation reduces phytates 70-90%. Soaking + cooking helps. Yeast fermentation (bread) partially breaks down phytates. Whole grains have more nutrients but also more phytates — the net effect is still positive.
How filling is Wheat bran, crude?
Wheat bran, crude has a satiety score of 10.0/10. The 15.55g protein stimulates PYY (satiety hormone). The 42.8g fiber adds bulk and slows digestion. This makes it effective for appetite control between meals.
