White whole wheat flour is flour produced from soft white wheat instead of being made from red wheat. This type of wheat that has no genes for bran color (unlike traditional "red" wheat flour). Soft white wheat has a lower gluten content and lacks the tannins and phenolic acid found in red wheat. Both whole wheat and white whole wheat flour contain are nutritionally equal AND both contain bran.

White whole wheat flour should be treated the same as whole wheat flour. Many IBSers cannot not tolerate the bran in white whole wheat or whole wheat flour.

Good luck
