Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Bread

  • Metabolic Effect: Bread is a quick source of energy thanks to the carbohydrates it contains, but white bread can rapidly raise blood sugar levels. Fibrous varieties such as whole wheat or rye bread provide a more balanced energy.
  • Consumption Recommendation: It is important to pay attention to portion control when consuming bread. Consuming it with protein and healthy fats can balance blood sugar and prolong satiety.
  • Things to Consider: One slice of bread contains approximately 15 grams of carbohydrates. Excessive consumption can cause weight gain. Preferring whole grain bread is healthier.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from one medium-thick slice of bread, you need to walk for about 10 minutes. You can easily balance it with your daily activities.
