A nutritionist enumerates the health benefits of eating less bread

Dr. Tatiana Razumovskaya, a Russian nutrition expert, confirmed that eating bread daily affects the digestion process and weight gain.

Razumovskaya pointed out the problems that can be avoided by giving up eating bread altogether or reducing the amount we eat.

Razumovskaya says: “When we eat white bread, the secretion of insulin increases sharply, because the blood sugar level rises suddenly, and in the same way it decreases after a while, which makes the person feel hungry, meaning that white bread indirectly causes an increase in weight because it stimulates appetite. If a person eats a lot and moves a little, it is better for him to completely exclude bread from his diet.”

The expert adds: Whole-grain bread contains a high percentage of dietary fiber;

So when you eat a large amount of it;

It causes bloating and gas formation;
