My  friend Kim is a great cook.  I decided to join her and begin to eat different.  I have been enjoying the fabulous Shabbat dinners that she prepares every week.  The dinners are full of fantastic food, all kind of foods, creamy soups with nuts and fruits, and always a salad with different colors and textures and dressings, as well as meats, fish, and of course the bread and wine.

We began to follow Dr. Furhman's Nutritatrian Lifestyle almost 3 months ago.  To tell you truth, It was difficult! We tried to keep some our favorites dishes and accommodate some of the changes, but that did not go well (understatement).

So, I had a serious conversation with my self and concluded that I am too heavy for my size!  So I better get my act together--all this cheating was not helping!  And in addition, my back was hurting.  I had to do something, I was desperate!

Since, I had been enjoying the vegan dishes that Kim prepares for...

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...
