We Have Some Healthy Options When Choosing Bread
By Tom Herrin
In today's world, we have all kinds of choices available when it comes to doing good things for our health. One of the good things is we don't have to do it all by ourselves. While many prefer to make just about everything themselves, it may be more because they enjoy it. There are lots of healthy products on the market that can help us to maintain the best health possible.
Bread is one of those foods that has gotten a pretty bad reputation in the eyes of many and has even been avoided by some. The good part is that there are some very healthy types of bread available that may help us to build and maintain good health. We simply need to educate ourselves and make good choices.
Have You Heard of Ezekiel Bread?
For many of us, Ezekiel bread is a foreign name. It sounds like it may be something from overseas. Many who choose to be vegetarian, or those who frequent health food stores, may be well aware of it. Unlike most other types of bread, it is made from sprouted whole grains and without sugar. For those concerned about their sugar, this is big. The unique process can help to come up with a pretty healthy product. This kind of bread generally has no sugar and a good supply of protein. While you may not have heard of it, it is one that is worth trying.
Whole Grain Breads
There are all kinds of breads on the market that are advertised as having whole grains. Many are made from wheat, but many others may be made from any of several different kinds of grains. Reading the labels can reveal just what they are. True whole grain breads can provide plenty of fiber as well as be a pretty good source of vitamins. Many of the breads listed as whole grain may have no sugar and be low in calories. They are another good choice for those concerned about their carb intake.
Make Bread a Family Affair
There is no reason to buy some kind of bread that some of the members of your family simply can't stand. There is nothing worse than for someone to choke down food that tastes bad to them because it is healthy for them. Read those labels and make good choices. If your family doesn't like one kind, try another. There is a good variety out there. Go for it, and you will find a healthy bread that your family can enjoy.
