Bran Flakes

Bran Flakes

Everyday

Bran Flakes are a high-fiber breakfast cereal made from processed wheat bran, the nutrient-rich outer layer of the grain. Known for their coarse texture and mild nutty flavor, they provide exceptional soluble fiber content—particularly beta-glucan, which supports heart health and digestion. Typically fortified with iron and B vitamins, this low-sugar cereal is commonly served with milk or yogurt and can also be incorporated into baked goods for added fiber.
