wholemeal bread with added sugar? not seen that. I eat home made wholemeal bread made from stoneground wheat, and I am fine with a couple of slices of that.
edited to add: there is maybe a teaspoon of sugar in the yeast to feed the yeast as it works. Thats one teaspoon full in a 2lb loaf.
For me the only difference between brown grains and white grains is I spike any where from 15min to 1 hour later.
Both cause me terrible joint pains so are off the menu.
It still has as many carbs as white bread, and all the carbs will convert to glucose, it just takes a bit longer.
I agree. That's why I always speak about my experience.True. And I am Ok with that, as my blood sugar level.
My point is that it doesnt have added sugar to sweeten the loaf, I am answering the point i quoted. I am well aware that many on here think that all carbs are the work of the devil and should be banned. I think it is important, in the interest of balance, to point out that some of us can eat some carbs with no harm.
There is a big move on here to alienate those who eat some carbs. I am eating to my meter and all is well. There is room on this forum for all of us.
I feel strongly that the 'no carbs are good' lobby may be counterproductive, especially to those who are newly diagnosed. I notice that some familiar posters have gone. Maybe the very vocal very low carbers have contributed to that.
I slipped up and had some bread in the last few weeks. Interesting my BG didn't spike as high as I expected but wow my joints were killing me.I have noticed a lot less inflammation since giving up bread which alongside better bg is a big bonus.
You are so right. Pasta and Rice (now things of the past) gave me tummy troubles, as well as spikes. Homemade bread is good for my tummy troubles. Potatoes seem to be neutral. Veg is good, even root veg (again, balancing my stomach issues with my diabetic issues) and some salad stuff. Fruit, in a ny form, seems to be an instant problem on both counts.I slipped up and had some bread in the last few weeks.

Not all carbs are created equal.
