When you search for nutrition facts, you want numbers. So let us start with the one we can state with confidence, and then show you how to read everything else on the pack yourself.
The confirmed figure: 46 g protein per 100 g
28 Grains protein atta provides 46 g of protein per 100 g of atta. Regular whole-wheat atta usually sits around 10–12 g per 100 g, so ours carries about 4x the protein.
For the full panel (energy, carbohydrates, sugars, fibre, fat and sodium), please check the nutrition label printed on the pack you buy. Different variants, such as our multigrain protein atta and low-carb protein atta, are formulated differently, so their panels will not be identical. We would rather you read the actual label than rely on a number copied onto a web page.
What goes into it
The atta is whole wheat blended with plant-protein sources such as wheat protein, soya and pulses. It is 100% vegetarian. The ingredient list on the pack shows the order of ingredients, and the allergen statement tells you what to watch for, notably wheat (gluten) and soya.
How to read a nutrition label, line by line
Indian food labels follow a fairly standard layout. Here is what each line means for a flour.
- Serving basis. Most atta panels show values "per 100 g". Always check this first, because some brands also add a "per serving" column with a much smaller amount.
- Energy (kcal). The calories in 100 g of dry flour, not in cooked roti. Cooked roti contains water, so per-gram numbers look different.
- Protein. The headline number for this product. Compare it per 100 g across brands for a fair view.
- Carbohydrate. Total carbs, which include starch, sugars and, on some labels, fibre. Look for how fibre is listed.
- Of which sugars / added sugars. Plain atta should have little or no added sugar.
- Dietary fibre. Useful for digestion and fullness. Higher is generally better for a whole-grain flour.
- Total fat and saturated fat. Usually low in atta; the ghee you add later matters more.
- Sodium. Should be minimal in plain flour.
- Ingredients and allergens. Listed in descending order by weight. Read this if anyone at home has a wheat, gluten or soya allergy.
Converting per-100 g numbers to per-roti numbers
Nobody eats 100 g of atta in one bite, so convert. A medium roti uses roughly 30 g of dry atta. Multiply any per-100 g value by 0.3 to get a per-roti estimate.
| Amount of dry atta | Protein, 28 Grains protein atta | Protein, regular atta (approx.) |
|---|---|---|
| 30 g (1 medium roti) | about 13.8 g | about 3–3.5 g |
| 60 g (2 rotis) | about 27.6 g | about 6–7 g |
| 100 g | 46 g | about 10–12 g |
Use the same method with the energy or carbohydrate figures from your pack. For a fuller table, see how much protein is in a roti.
Common label traps to avoid
- "High protein" with no number. A claim means little without the per-100 g figure next to it.
- Per-serving tricks. A tiny serving size can make any value look small or large.
- Comparing cooked and dry values. Always compare flour with flour.
- Ignoring the ingredient order. The first ingredient makes up the largest share.
Putting the numbers to use
A simple habit helps: when you open a new pack, note three numbers on your phone, namely protein, energy and fibre per 100 g. Multiply each by 0.3 and you have a per-roti reference you can use all month. If you eat four rotis a day, multiply the per-roti figure by four to see how much of your day the atta covers. This takes two minutes and makes the rest of your meal planning far easier.
It also helps to compare like with like. If you are choosing between our standard protein atta and the multigrain or low-carb variants, read the three labels side by side and decide which number matters most to you.
Once you know your per-roti protein, you can plan the rest of the plate. Pair rotis with dal, curd or paneer and you can build a strong high-protein Indian diet without supplements. If you are comparing flours, our protein atta vs normal atta guide lays out the differences side by side, and is protein atta healthy covers the bigger picture.
People with kidney conditions or on a medically restricted diet should talk to their doctor or dietitian before increasing protein.
