BREAD

I am sure you've heard of a low-carb diet, and may have even tried it once or twice. But the fact is, bread is good for you and shouldn't be kept out of your diet. Bread provides you with dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Grain is healthy for your body.

If you want to try a healthier bread, go with whole-grain bread over white bread, because the whole-grain flour used in whole-grain bread is better for you.

BUT...there are many different kinds of bread besides white bread and whole-grain bread. There is "stone-ground flour," "sprouted wheat," "gluten free," "fermented" and "yeast" breads, and more. What exactly are those breads and are they good for you? Read this article by greatist.com to find out!
