Health benefits of whole wheat vermicelli, whole wheat semiya
Whole wheat vermicelli or semiya is slightly higher in
protein than the maida based vermicelli. It is also a good source of
fibre, which regular vermicelli is not. Thus whole wheat vermicelli is a wiser choice for people with
heart disease and those aiming
weight loss. However since it is also a good source of carbs, we recommend
diabetics use them sparingly and balance its glycemic index and boost nutritional content by adding fibre and
antioxidant rich veggies.
