"Refined wheat" refers to wheat that has undergone a process called refining, where the bran and germ are removed, leaving only the innermost part of the grain called the endosperm. This process results in a finer texture and prolonged shelf life, but it also removes important nutrients, such as fiber and some vitamins.
