Although the bread has long been a familiar element in our daily diet, it is still perhaps the most mythologized of all.
Most people consider bread a product harmful to health, but according to the expert, this is a misconception. Even those who are on a diet can eat bread. The primary condition is to choose the right product.
Bread is regularly included in the list of the worst food for athletes and dieters. The founder of the school and nutritionist Andrey Nevsky told us whether this is true on his Instagram
Bread makes you fat.
Just like any other food. The calorie content of 100 grams of white wheat bread is about 250 kilocalories. 100 grams of macadamia contains 718 kilocalories, Parmesan 420 kilocalories, and seeds 578 kilocalories. By the way, bread with seeds and other fillers will be even more caloric. But if you try, you can fit it into your daily allowance. Remember, you get fat not when you eat a piece of bread, but when you eat too many calories.
Bread makes the intestines rot
Yeast is blamed for this “sin”. According to “experts,” they also suppress the immune system and provoke cancer.
There is nothing healthy in bread
First of all, bread is carbohydrates, and carbohydrates are energy. And being full of energy is good for you. Secondly, Nevsky does not like the division into “useful” and “harmful”. Sometimes extremely healthy foods can harm the body if consumed incorrectly. Of course, if we compare ordinary white bread and whole grain bread, the latter contains B vitamins, minerals, and fiber. This is good for the body but in reasonable doses.
Breadcrumbs are healthier than bread
If we talk about calorie content, breadcrumbs have even more, because it is a dry product and their density is higher. And for those who have gastritis or an ulcer, breadcrumbs are contraindicated. It is a hard food full of fiber that irritates the stomach. Therefore, it is better to eat slightly dried white bread.
Black bread is better than white bread
This is purely a matter of preference. Whole grain bread has more nutrients, and it can be both white and black.
