Why Low-Carb Bread Should Be A Staple

The saying "Bread is life" is as true as it gets - as long as its not processed and enjoyed with a Mediterranean diet.  

However, when joined with the typical American diet, it's not life it's inflammatory.  And that leads to quick weight gain, joint aches and a plethora of other acute or chronic ailments in the body.  

The problem is though Bread is a household staple! 

For Asians it's rice, For Mexican's its tortillas, but for American's it's bread -- and that holds true for Europeans as well!  And going off bread completely isn't the best solution.  Why?  because when you deny yourself of the foods you love best, you tend to overcompensate and binge on them when they present themselves at special dinners or events.  And before you know it, you are gaining weight and suffering with auto-immune issues.  

So, the question is how can we have our bread and eat it too!

First, find a low carb gluten free or sprouted bread that you like at a health food grocery store or make it yourself! (Click here for recipe)

Secondly, keep it in the fridge and when you crave bread eat it!  Make your sandwich, pair it with salad and soup or use it as a side snack! 

Thirdly, when going out to eat take a slice with you. Substitute it for the breat that is placed on the table at the restaurant.  

Fourthly, Make sure to buy or prepare one loaf a week (or more if you have a large family) and only eat other types of bread on speciall occassions like:  Challah for Shabbat! 

Keeping a healthy sprouted grain or whole carb bread in the house psychology keeps you from feeling deprived while satisfying your bread cravings!
