Why supermarket breads are bad for diabetes
A simple guide to understanding who super market bread can cause such aggressive sugar spikes
Why Is Traditional Bread Bad If You Have Diabetes or are Prediabetic?
Best described by Dr Chris Van Tulleken, todays bread is an addictive sugar delivery system masquerading as a staple. Nutrition labels may show a mere 4-8% sugar, but 100% of the highly refined carbohydrates will also turn to sugar, which typically makes up around 45-55% of the bread's content!.
Did you know? 50% of your daily bread turns into sugar
Right in your stomach!
Bread typically found in your supermarket uses highly refined carbs, which have a very weak molecular bond. This means that every carbohydrates will be broken down in the stomach and turned into sugar; in the form of glucose and fructose. Glucose spikes your blood sugar, while fructose gets processed by your kidneys, adding to the load on your body. So, while that fluffy white loaf might taste great, it’s working against your health in many ways
Is Brown Bread Any Better?
Unfortunately today's brown bread is as unhealthy as white bread. The Brown bread today is a far cry from its 1970's ancestoral derivative. We tested these statements by carrying out small sample blood tests which showed shows sugar spikes as high in today's brown as it's white couterpart. Mass-produced breads, whether white or brown, are not a good option for anyone looking to manage their blood sugar effectively. Ask a Gen X (50+) and get them to tell you what 1970's real brown bread was really like
For the love of bread ?
If you love bread and other bready goodies, don’t worry—you’re not alone! Switching to low-carb, high-fibre bread options is a smarter choice, but such bakes and innovations have only been around for about 5 years in the UK.
