HELPFUL ADVICE TO GE T YOU STARTED There was also a time when the thought of losing weight didn't even occur in our society, people ate what mom cooked for dinner and they went to work. The difference in that society and today's society is that work was not behind a computer screen, but on their feet in the fields or on a warehouse floor. People worked physically because that was the only way to work, in fact, that's why it was called work! It was often during this time that people could eat anything they wanted because they were burning much more calories than what they consumed. But, like all good things, that too has passed and the technology of today's world has left us in one condition – an overweight one.

When we go to buy bread, we see white and brown bread, and many of us wonder what is the difference between brown and white bread, and how its colors and density differ, its taste and benefits, and which bread is the best and healthiest for the human body? .. From here we learn together about the most important of these differences on the Body Building website Arabia »
The physical difference
All bread is made from wheat flour, and each grain consists of 3 sections: the endosperm, the germ, and the bran, the endosperm is the large center of the grain that contains starch and protein, the embryo is in the endosperm, and it contains many vitamins and minerals, while the bran contains fiber and nutrients Other.
The flour in white bread is more processed than whole wheat bread, and during processing, the germ and bran are removed from the wheat grains, leaving only the white endosperm and starch. Although the endosperm is the largest part of the grain, it contains the least nutrients, and whole wheat flour still contains healthy germ and bran, and thus contains more nutrients (including fiber) than white flour.
The nutritional difference
The bran in whole wheat flour provides fiber, the germ provides protein and vitamin E, and it also provides vitamin B, magnesium, manganese, iron, phosphorous, potassium and zinc.
Whole wheat also contains phytonutrients, which are called lignans, and have a protective effect against breast cancer and heart disease.
Often times, white flour is "rich" in vitamins and minerals that are added after artificially processing, and folic acid and iron are also added in the preparation of white bread to avoid nutrient deficiencies.

Choose the bread
Look at the ingredient list and make sure the first ingredient is "whole wheat flour". Many baking products contain a mixture of white flour and wheat, so avoid those that list "enriched wheat flour" and "wheat flour" in the ingredients.
And don't be fooled by the packaging that says "multiple grains" or "wheat" or "ground stone wheat" or "12 grains".
