Breaking bread myths: Internet dietitian clears up confusion on breakfast choices

Bread is a staple in many people's diets — it's hard to imagine a tasty scrambled egg breakfast without a roll or a mid-morning snack without sandwiches. Many people unnecessarily abstain from eating bread while dieting based on myths that don't necessarily reflect reality.

Is bread permissible in a diet?

When shopping, it's worth being mindful of what goes in our baskets, not just during dieting times. Instead of avoiding the bread aisle, focus on making intelligent nutritional choices. Naturally, there's no harm in indulging in white rolls or wheat bread; everything should be in moderation. Nobody says that the only correct choice has to be pumpernickel. However, there is bread with which we should be more familiar.

Graham roll - a good breakfast choice

Graham rolls are made from graham wheat flour. This flour is milled from whole grains and contains bran. Besides flour, the recipe may require water, salt, butter or oil, yeast, and a pinch of sugar. In 100g of a graham roll, there are about 250-264 calories.

A graham roll is a healthy and valuable choice for people striving for weight loss. It's high in fiber, which swells the stomach, providing a feeling of fullness and helping reduce caloric intake. Furthermore, it benefits the digestive system and maintains stable blood sugar levels. Graham roll is also rich in essential minerals necessary for the body's proper functioning. Graham rolls can be a healthy and nutritious alternative to traditional white rolls.
