How to Buy Bread

If you include bread in your diet, here are some things to consider when shopping:

Bread
  1. Look for bread made from whole grains, especially those with sprouted grains, which offer more naturally occurring vitamins, minerals and fiber.

  2. Avoid breads made from enriched white flour. Processing of most flours involves heat and bleach which destroy vital nutrients of the grain.

  3. Find breads without preservatives. Search the freezer section for products that are wholesome and avoid additives in an attempt to extend shelf life.

Like any change, making healthier choices means developing new tastes and new habits. Visit your local health food store. Make it an adventure and give yourself time to appreciate the subtle flavors.
