Warning to diabetics about this bread

A recent study warned diabetics not to rely on the quality of bread for its role in high blood sugar.

 Which leads to serious complications for public health, so it is important that you try to lower your blood sugar to moderate levels.

Although carbohydrates are necessary for the body, some of them are very harmful, according to a study cited by “sputnikn” on the Eat This, Not That website, and the study indicates that there are different types of bread, for example, that are healthier than others, according to nutritionist Lisa Young. .

Lisa says the worst bread to eat for high blood sugar is refined grains with no added fibre.

"People with high blood sugar should include fiber-rich bread, with at least three grams of fiber per slice," she says.

She explains that bread with added sugar is also a problem because it can spike blood sugar, while fiber helps stabilize blood sugar.

There are two types of carbohydrates: simple and complex.

Simple carbohydrates are made of sugars such as fructose and glucose, which have simple chemical structures.

Complex carbohydrates have more complex chemical structures and take longer to digest, which means they have less direct impact on blood sugar, causing it to rise gradually.

Cereals that have been milled and purified — the bran removed — have a higher glycemic index than minimally processed whole grains.

According to Harvard University, foods with a high glycemic index, such as white bread, are quickly digested and cause large fluctuations in blood sugar.

The researchers announced that eating many foods with a high glycemic index can lead to an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease and weight gain.

Lisa suggests replacing refined grain bread with whole grain bread, such as whole wheat or oats.
