Daily Fit 5/30/19: The Healthiest Bread You Can Eat

Health Tip Of The Day: Make healthier sandwiches with sprouted grain bread.

Sprouted grain bread is giving healthy eaters and carb-skeptics something to cheer about. This type of bread, made from a variety of sprouted whole grains — including wheat, millet, barley and spelt — and legumes, like soybeans and lentils, is packed with vitamins, minerals, protein and fiber. It’s filled with antioxidants like vitamins C, E and beta carotene.

Sprouted grain bread is often considered healthier than other varieties because of its manufacturing process. The sprouted grains used to make this bread are soaked until they reach germination, a process which enriches the grain by increasing its nutrient levels. The process also makes the bread easier to digest for some people. The higher amount of fiber and protein in this bread help keep you full throughout the day and give you sustained energy.

One popular sprouted grain bread is Ezekiel bread which can be found at most grocery stores. Read on to learn more about this type of bread and its health benefits. [University Health News]
