Im trying to get answers as to how many people including my self eat white bread and are still lean. Whats your favorite type of bread?
What's lean by your standard?
No vote?
the propaganda the Corn Refiners Association put out are hilarious. they have spoofs of those ads on youtube. they're hilariousYou should look into the proccessing that white bread undergoes, besides the fact that it's got good ol' HFCS. You might be able to handle it and stay lean because the rest of your diet is good, but that doesnt mean you should be eating it
:goodpost:Oh yea the muscle will grow regardless, the question is whether you want to get a serving of whole grains out of that bread or not. Whether it will provide you with good fiber or a handfull of fillers. Lets see the differences...
The white flour used to make white bread is bleached to give it longer shelf life and to hide white flour's original yellow color, usually with chlorine dioxide gas or benzoyl peroxide (pesticides yummm). The flour itself has the bran and the wheat germ removed, which contains all the minerals and vitamins. It is then enriched with vitamins to a point, but thats not really the same. White bread also digests too easily and spikes blood sugar levels too quickly, in comparison to a lower GI whole grain bread.
White bread contains high levels of gluten which is known for damaging walls of intestines. Combination of refined flour and refined sugar in W.B. lead to tooth decay. What I personally want out of bread is fiber, and there is so little left in WB that you need to eat about 8 slices to get as much as 1 Whole Wheat slice contains. Thats almost the whole loaf!!!
And finally,
"In a Harvard study of 75,000 nurses, those who ate at least three servings a day of whole grains cut their heart attack risk by 35 percent and were less likely to get into weight or bowel trouble. By contrast, those who ate more processed foods—such as white bread, white rice and sodas—were more than twice as likely to develop diabetes."
So yeah if you desperately need calories then I guess it does not matter, but when making a lifetime choice to eat a certain product I think there should be more consideration. Just my 2 cents, not bashing anything or anyone.
Ezekiel bread is by FAR the best choice of breads, it breaks down in your body the same as brown rice. Most wheat breads are still processed and not an ideal source of carbs IMOEzekiel bread for the win...
can u further explain the differences?Ezekiel bread is by FAR the best choice of breads, it breaks down in your body the same as brown rice. Most wheat breads are still processed and not an ideal source of carbs IMO

I like Nature's Own Whitewheat. 2 slices contain:
110 cal
2 g fat
0.5 sat fat
0 trans fat
0 cholest
23 carbs
5 g fiber
2 g sugar
6 g protein
I know that's not quite as great as the dark wheats, but this stuff has the taste and texture of white bread. I'll eat a little cleaner in other areas to avoid bread that has the texture of styrofoam.
All of this is true but that stuff tastes horrible to me. If you can stomach it more power to you. I can't.It's an organic-sprouted-whole-grain-bread that is not only a complete protein but also weighs in very low on the Glycemic Index. These are the kind of carbs we want to be eating, whole unprocessed whole grain products. All you have to do is take a close look at this bread to see all the whole grains that it consists of.
Unlike many breads on the market today you will not see ingredients like enriched wheat flour, high fructose corn syrup, or preservatives listed in the ingredients. Some of the ingredients you will see are sprouted barley, millet, lentils, spelt, and soybeans
Remember, when choosing any breads you want to look for whole grains over simply whole wheat flour. This is easy enough because all you have to do is look at the bread… if you see whole grains and seeds you know you’ve got a good one. If you’re bread is brown but soft and fluffy you might want to take a closer look at the list of ingredients.
ha i gave up eating for taste like 2 years ago.All of this is true but that stuff tastes horrible to me. If you can stomach it more power to you. I can't.
That's the one for me!!!Ezekiel bread for the win...
I can't eat it if it's not toasted. That solved my problem. Now that is the only bread I like and will eat.All of this is true but that stuff tastes horrible to me. If you can stomach it more power to you. I can't.
Try it to see. Everyone is different. I liked it from the jump. Some people say it has an "acquired" taste. You can definitely tell its not processed. It takes a while to chew it up.does ezekial actually taste that bad? i actually like health nut? bread. very grainy
