If we ask what is necessary to live, everyone will say water and bread. Bread was first an important parameter of life for the ancient Egyptians. In fact, the workers who built the pyramids were given bread in return for their labor. Isn't it still? We all work for bread. So, which type of bread, which has such an important place in our lives, is healthier?

White bread and whole wheat bread are very different from each other. Both are bread, but their content and metabolic effects are different. The flour used in the production of white bread, which is a refined (processed) carbohydrate; The bran part is separated from the other parts and the remaining part is flour that is weak in terms of protein, fiber, vitamins and contains a high percentage of starch. That's why it has a high glycemic index. In other words, it has the potential to suddenly raise blood sugar.

While producing whole wheat bread, which is a complex (unprocessed) carbohydrate; Flour with high protein, fiber and antioxidant content and without separating bran was used. Therefore, it does not suddenly raise blood sugar. Sudden increases in blood sugar can have undesirable consequences for our body health. Therefore, we should consume bread with high nutritional value and low glycemic index.
