Sport Is wholemeal bread wholeGRAIN bread?

Sport Fitness
I dont wanna sound stupid, but is wholemeal bread the same as wholegrain? Cos in all healthy food lists it says to eat wholegrain breads for carbs, yet I never see anything saying wholegrain bread in supermarkets.

Anyone explain?
 
Check the ingrediant lost on the label. In the US the ingrediants are supposed to be listed in order of largest content. If the first ingrediant on the list is white flour, enriched flour, bleached flour, etc. it is not whole grain bread. A lot of "wheat" breads on the store shelf have very little whole grain flour in them because people tend to like the smoother texture of non-whole grain breads better than the gritty, lumpy texture of whole grains.
