Sunday's Eating tips

100% whole grain bread? White Bread? Wheat Bread? What should I chose?


Everyone has tried a low carb diet at least once, and you always hear cut the carbs, don't eat bread, don't eat this....Well the thing is carbs are good for you, especially if you are athletic.  White bread or enriched bread is full of carbohydrates that break down and send sugar into our bloodstream, raising our blood sugar levels...in turn helping cause diabetes as well as making us fat!
In turn the best bread you can eat is 100% whole grain bread it is full of fiber, not carbs that turn into sugar.  Whole grains also are full of vitamins and nutrients unlike white bread.  

Beware....read the ingredients label.  It is easy to grab a bag of bread that looks like wheat bread, but be 100% sure that the ingredients does not list enriched flour, it should say whole wheat.

All in all stay away from anything enriched or refined and stick to whole grains.  You can find whole grain pasta, and whole grain rice as well.  I eat lots of bread and I've lost lots of weight, so ignore people who tell you to stay away from bread...the key is STAY FAR FAR FAR away from white bread :)
