The truth you are not always aware of

We hear “there’s a whole world of wonderful breads”. True!

❗ But is it the whole truth?

We hear “bread has been part of the human diet for thousands of years”. Also true.

❗ Except, then bread was baked from coarse, unrefined flours.

Our society evolved, so did bread. From “flat cakes” to packaged sliced bread in the 1930s. Modern times have brought us a multitude of new breads, hence selecting the most suitable bread is a difficult job.

We share a few tips to help you navigate the various options.

✅ Go for bread with the lowest amount of sugar.

✅ Choose bread that is high in fibre (wholegrain, whole-wheat). Fibre is a non-digestible carb, it doesn’t raise blood sugar level.

✅ Opt for breads with a lower glycaemic index. These are digested slowly, helping you to feel energized throughout the day.

* 100% stone-ground whole-wheat & pumpernickel bread have the lowest GI(55)

** Whole wheat & rye bread are medium-glycaemic foods (GI 56-69)

❤️❤️ It is also important to remember that the majority of our breads are made using traditional sourdough — they are generally more flavourful and a healthier option than regular bread.
