The invention belongs to the technical field of wheat breeding, in particular relates to a wheat breeding method for improving content of resistant starch of kernels and strengthening a health care function. The wheat breeding method for conveniently, rapidly, accurately and efficiently improving content of resistant starch of kernels comprises the steps of: after required variation and breeding generated by variety selection and seed treatment are stabilized, screening materials with reduced main viscosity parameters through starch pasting characteristic measurement, further measuring direct-chain starch content and defining change of physical and chemical properties of starch, and finally confirming materials with increased content of the resistant starch through directly measuring the content of the resistant starch. According to the invention, detection procedures are simplified, selection accuracy and working efficiency are improved, and better effect is obtained in practice.
