Whole Grain Breads are Part of a Healthy Diet
Make your diet a bit healthier by choosing whole grain bread in place of traditional refined grain bread.Refined grains have been associated with many health issues. Whole grains, on the other hand, have been linked to a variety of health benefits, including a reduced risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.They’re also a good source of:
-
- fiber
- B vitamins
- minerals such as zinc, iron, magnesium, and manganese.
Make sure to read the label to ensure that your bread is made with whole grains only, not a mixture of whole and refined grains. It’s also preferable that the bread contains whole seeds or grains.
