Can I Substitute Whole Wheat Flour for All-Purpose Flour?

Greetings, Chef Dave

I recently met you at the Carson City support group meeting and again, thank you for speaking to us and making your book available. I have shared a few of the recipes with a co-worker who is diabetic and she is thankful.

My question, when it comes to baking, can you substitute whole wheat natural flour in recipes calling for all-purpose flour? Does it matter? Is there a difference? What other ingredients may need to be added/substituted when doing this?

Thank you for your assistance and have a great day.
