Overview

Purple wheat is a specialized variety of whole-grain wheat, specifically the **CDC Primepurple** cultivar, characterized by high concentrations of anthocyanin pigments in the bran layer. Developed by the Crop Development Centre (CDC) and commercially distributed as **AnthoGrain** by InfraReady Products Ltd, it is studied for its potential health benefits in managing chronic inflammation and metabolic disorders. Clinical research indicates that consumption of purple wheat products, such as bran-enriched convenience bars, can modestly improve metabolic markers including interleukin-6 (IL-6) and fasting glucose levels in overweight and obese adults with elevated high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP). Its mechanism of action is attributed to its high content of dietary fiber and bioactive phytochemicals, particularly anthocyanins and phenolic acids like ferulic acid, which exhibit antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
