Same Sandwich, Different Bread 🍞… let’s talk about it!
While some people may consider whole grain bread to be “healthier” than white bread, many people forget that both types of bread can be included as part of a healthy diet.
White bread and whole grain bread have different nutrient profiles. Whole grain bread contains more fiber, which has gut health benefits. However, white bread may be easier to digest, so some athletes or those with gastrointestinal illness may prefer this bread.
While fiber is great, not everyone is able to tolerate fiber all the time and not everyone prefers to increase their fiber intake through their bread, and that’s okay!
At the end of the day, both types of bread provide the body with carbohydrates for energy.
Rather than choosing your bread choice solely based on what’s considered “healthier”, we challenge you to first consider the option that sounds the most appealing, satiating, and satisfying to your body.
Sometimes that might be whole grain bread and other times that might be white bread, and both are delicious 😋.
