“…Einkorn is a distinct species, which includes cultivated and wild forms, while emmer and spelt are subspecies of T. turgidum and T. aestivum, respectively. Furthermore, modern commercial cultivars of spelt may have introgressions (transfer of genetic information) from bread wheat due to cross-breeding, while all types of wheat cultivated today have been grown and hence selected (either unconsciously or deliberately) over thousands of years [2].…”

“…It has therefore been suggested that this has led to modern wheats having lower contents of micronutrients (minerals, vitamins) and bioactive components (phytochemicals) and higher contents of proteins that may lead to adverse reactions and diseases such as coeliac disease, wheat allergy and non-coeliac wheat sensitivity [4,5]. Hence, there has been increased interest in ancient wheats, which are assumed to have more favourable compositions for health [2].…”

Five cultivars of bread wheat and spelt and three of emmer were grown in replicate randomised field trials on two sites for two years with 100 and 200 kg nitrogen fertiliser per hectare, reflecting low input and intensive farming systems. Wholemeal flours were analysed for components that are suggested to contribute to a healthy diet. The ranges of all components overlapped between the three cereal types, reflecting the effects of both genotype and environment. Nevertheless, statistically significant differences in the contents of some components were observed. Notably, emmer and spelt had higher contents of protein, iron, zinc, magnesium, choline and glycine betaine, but also of asparagine (the precursor of acrylamide) and raffinose. By contrast, bread wheat had higher contents of the two major types of fibre, arabinoxylan (AX) and β-glucan, than emmer and a higher AX content than spelt. Although such differences in composition may be suggested to result in effects on metabolic parameters and health when studied in isolation, the final effects will depend on the quantity consumed and the composition of the overall diet.
