Wheat Bran

Wheat bran is the nutritious outer layer of the wheat kernel, separated during the milling process of whole wheat grains. It is a rich source of dietary fiber, essential fatty acids, proteins, vitamins and minerals, making it a valuable ingredient in both animal feed and human food products.

Rich in dietary fiber and containing a notable amount of protein, iron, magnesium and B vitamins, wheat bran offers a moderate energy density that suits a wide range of feed formulations. Its fiber profile supports digestive health in livestock, while its nutrient content contributes to overall feed balance.

In animal nutrition, wheat bran is commonly used as a feed ingredient for cattle, poultry, swine and other livestock. Its high fiber content aids digestion and supports healthy gut function. It is also often included in pet food formulations. In ruminant diets, wheat bran can be incorporated at levels up to 20–30% of the concentrate mix, providing a palatable source of fiber and energy. For monogastric animals such as pigs and poultry, it is typically used at lower inclusion rates to improve gut fill and reduce feed cost without compromising growth performance.

For human consumption, wheat bran is used in whole grain breads, cereals, muffins and other baked goods to increase fiber content and nutritional value. It can also be processed into bran flakes or added to smoothies and health foods. As a clean-label ingredient, it helps manufacturers boost the fiber profile of breakfast cereals, snack bars and bakery mixes.
