Les grains de céréales : diversité et compositions nutritionnelles

Thanks to their richness in starch, cereal grains are an essential part of the diet. They are also a source of dietary fibres and macronutrients (vitamins, minerals, etc.), interesting constituents for health, essentially concentred in the external parts of the kernel. Despite these common characteristics, cereals show various nutritional assets, partly depending on vegetal species, but mostly on technological processes used in flours and foods productions.
