Description

• High in dietary fiber: Rye has a higher dietary fiber content than most common cereals, including wheat. The soluble fiber, particularly beta-glucan, helps to slow digestion, promote satiety, and aid in managing blood sugar and cholesterol levels.
• Supports weight management: The high fiber content keeps you feeling fuller for longer, which can help reduce overall calorie intake and support weight loss goals.
• Promotes digestive health: The dietary fiber bulks up stool and stimulates regular bowel movements, preventing constipation and supporting a healthy gut microbiome.
• Rich in vitamins and minerals: Rye is a good source of essential nutrients, including B vitamins (B1, B3, and B6), magnesium, iron, and potassium, which support nervous system function and overall health.
• Low glycemic index: Whole-grain rye has a lower glycemic index compared to refined wheat, resulting in a more gradual effect on blood sugar levels. 

• Rye berries: Cooked whole, rye berries have a chewy texture and can be used in salads, grain bowls, and hearty soups or stews.
• Rye flakes: Similar to rolled oats, these can be used to make a hearty, nutritious porridge or added to muesli for extra texture.
• Rye flour: Whether used for baking traditional dark and dense rye breads (including pumpernickel) or mixed with wheat flour for a lighter loaf, rye flour imparts a unique flavor. It’s also excellent for crackers, pancakes, and sourdough bread.
