You may not realize it, but some corn, rice and wheat varieties can also be "ancient grains." But are ancient grains actually better for you, or just marketing mumbo-jumbo?A food product that uses “ancient grains” will be sure to put the phrase on the package where anyone can see it. And though maybe the term sounds appealing — like it’s alluding to the healthier diets of our ancestors — it’s not immediately clear what it means.
Corn and rice can fall into this category too, so long as the variety has a genome that breeders haven’t drastically changed, points out Dipak Santra, an agronomist at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln., for example, a version grown in South Carolina up until the Great Depression, has since come back into stores and would meet the “ancient” standard.
Across the world, one grain that has changed significantly from when it first appeared is bread wheat. A descendant of a wild grass that merged with either farro or durum wheat, bread wheat came with benefits it’s predecessors didn’t — the inedible shell around each tasty kernel fell off easily and the part we like to eat came with the right gluten structure to help bread rise.
