Bread is an indispensable food on our tables.
First of all, there are some mistakes that we know to be true! For example, are you one of those who do not eat bread in order to lose weight or avoid gaining weight?
Then, let me tell you about the energy expenditure in our body and see if you will continue not to eat bread?
All our tissues, especially our brain, are fed with glucose. To meet our body's glucose needs, we have to get 55-60% of our daily energy from carbohydrates. When we do not consume carbohydrates, our main energy source, our body uses our muscles as an energy source. In this case, what is seen on the scale is muscle and water loss, not fat! We call this ketosis. Our muscles are our fat-burning factory. Therefore, regardless of the damage that muscle loss will cause to our body, your fat tissue will remain as it is. If you ask which type of bread you should prefer, please choose the dark colored ones, not the white ones. Especially whole wheat, rye and whole grain ones.
