精制谷物是指加工后其外层部位(麩皮、胚芽和颖壳)几乎被全部丢弃的谷物,因為此種谷物的营养成分主要在外层,而外層部位被丟棄後穀物只剩下內部的淀粉质部分[1],因此精制谷物的营养成分就比较单一,可持續性不如全谷。[2]包括白面包、穀粉、葛子和白米在內的穀物都是精制谷物[3]。經磨碎加工過的精煉穀物質地更細膩,並且具有較長的保質期[4][5]。20世紀初,隨著美國越來越多的人食用精制谷物,也有越來越多的人缺乏營養(铁、硫胺、核黄素和烟酸)[6][7]。為了解決這個問題,美國國會於1942年通過一項法案,要求廠家在銷售精制谷物之前必須將鐵、菸鹼酸、維生素B1和維生素B2添加到精制谷物中。1996年時又要求廠家必須在精制谷物中加入叶酸[6]。
