I have e mailed the bakery to give us the list of the cities and shops in UK which they supplying.Will come back to you with the results
Have you heard back from them @lucas12? I tramped round the three Polish/Eastern European shops here but drew a blank. There's also a Maximart which I haven't tried yet, although I might ask if any of the other three could order some for me. Perhaps six loaves should do it ;)

I just went along the road to the delicatessen, which is actually a Polish shop - not only is it open until 10pm it has the protein bread, and quinoa and other mixes of seeds too - and loads of other foods all of it in Polish wrappers - I can see me having to study up on the language.

Thanks for posting the list, @Old_Dave. The one that stands out is the Kingsmill Wholemeal No Crusts at 7.4g per slice. A definite possibility, that one.
Please ensure that you take into account the size of the bread or loaf. There are several half sized portions out there.

There is bakery address I think any polish shop could order.I live in Staffordshire 100 miles away from Manchester so it's not local

Can I ask roughly where in Staffordshire, as I might be able to visit that shop. The shop we used regularly in Stafford has closed down though there will be others.

I wasn't able to get the protein bread but today my partner drove me from Scarborough to Otley where there is a Waitrose and the stock the livlife low carb super seeded bread! It has 3.7 g of carb per slice. The slices are smaller than usual but I have had the bread toasted and buttered and thought it tasted great! If you are looking for a low carb bread it is well worth a try.
