Wheat is a herbaceous (often annual) plant that belongs to the cereal crops. Wheat is one of the most important crops that people grow for food. This is not surprising, because wheat grains are very nutritious and healthy, as they contain a huge amount of nutrients: vitamins B, C, E, F and PP, amino acids, fiber, fructose, lactose, carotene, as well as many minerals (potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, silver, iron, calcium, etc.). 
Wheat is used to make wheat flour, which is used to make various food products that appear on our table almost every day: bakery products, cereals (semolina, for example), pasta, and more. Alcoholic beverages are also made from this plant.
Wheat starch, decoctions and germs of the plant are actively used in medicine, both traditional and modern, as well as in cosmetology.
