Wheat starch is just like any other starch, good for thickening and baking. Wheat starch is generally considered gluten-free, but it is important to note that there is a small amount of gluten that can remain in the starch after processing.

The FDA allows wheat starch to be included in gluten-free labeled products as long as the final product contains less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten.

Every 100 grams of wheat starch contains 85 grams of carbohydrates. As a gluten-free item, wheat starch does not contain much protein. Though they still have a small amount of protein in them. Every 100 grams of wheat starch can provide you with 530 mg of protein.  People usually consider fats as a bad element, which is partially true. But, there are the good fats (not the trans ones) which you actually need in a small amount to keep good health. Every 100 grams of wheat starch contains 150 mg of fats, not a single bit of them are trans fat, so don’t worry.  As one of the better carb-type foods, which means they contain fibers, every 100 grams of wheat starch contains 240 mg of fibers. Though wheat starch does not contain any vitamins or minerals, wheat starch contains calcium, every 100 grams of wheat starch contains 15 mg of calcium. Being an experienced solutions supplier and exporter for food and beverages manufacturers, Tianjiachem welcome any inquiries from all over the world.
