Abstract
The present invention is related to processes for the manufacture of a cereal product having an improved anti-oxidant content with high ORAC values and the product thereof. In addition, the present invention relates to a method of using this product to increase the anti-oxidant levels of a mammal. The milled grain may then be ground into flour which is then used to make the product desired. Particularly high ORAC values result from the use of a specific type of sorghum that contains high levels of tannin. The high tannin level sorghum is milled and ground and placed into formulations in at least partial substitution for the wheat or oat grain, to result in content of high tannin sorghum bran of 3-10% and whole grain high tannin sorghum of 50-60%.
