pickling bran?

Any chance someone could elaborate on the use of bran in pickling? Neither the pickling nor the tsukemono articles mention it at all.

Proposed move

This article has been renamed as the result of a move request. Please check the redirects. –Hajor 2 July 2005 05:42 (UTC)

Bran was moved to Bran (disambiguation)
Dietary bran was moved to Bran

Moving

I propose to move this page to bran and move that page to bran (disambiguation). — Pekinensis 03:11, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Oppose. I understand the logic, but can't support primary disambiguation for an article that consists of only 2 sentences. Figure out how to write a couple paragraphs on dietary bran, and then I'd be willing to take a serious look at whether this usage significantly exceeds the mythological and geographic usages.

- Better now? — Pekinensis 19:54, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Agree with move - the length of the current article doesn't change the status of the incoming links, and shouldn't affect where the article is placed. sjorford →•← 22:19, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Bran digestion problems

Is anyone aware of any reliable information on problems with ingesting products containing bran? I experience stomach discomfort when eating storebought products with wheat bran, and digestive problems when eating storebought products containing oat bran. Unfortunately I haven't had much luck finding any info on this due to the massive amount of propaganda in support of bran and whole grain foods as health foods. I've heard that phytic acid may be a culprit, and that foods using sprouted grains may remove the phytic acid and alleviate the problem; I've had a little bit of luck buying sprouted grain bread from health stores, but it's expensive and too different from regular bread for my tastes.
