Diet? Why not a piece of rye bread
Nowadays, to optimize health
benefits, more and more health conscious people opt to eat bread made of wholemeal
grain rather than plain flour bread. Many
believe, in fact is also proven, that bread made of wholemeal flour which
contains higher fibre, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants than the refined and
bleached white bread flour is healthier. Wholemeal promotes weight loss, as it
takes longer for the body to absorb than it takes to absorb refined grains.
I have posted wholemeal bread
recipes, click to visit the post here Tangzhong wholemeal bread. To continue in trying out more nutritious multigrain
breads, this time I combined wholemeal flour with – Rye flour.
Research shows Rye flour is more nutritious than wheat. Rye flour helps to lower
insulin response and improves blood glucose profile which reduces the risk of
diabetes. It also reduces inflammation in people with metabolic syndrome. Rye bread with higher fibre content makes you feel
fuller and satisfied longer than wheat. It also helps to reduce the risk of
cardiovascular disease.
