What is best bread to eat for diabetics
S02E03 - Type 2 diabetics need to know about bread. (2010)
hi so you're a diabetic well I'm a
diabetic I'm a type 2 diabetic but I
resolved by type 2 diabetes with
something called a glycemic index which
basically is just a sugar chart so I
wrote a 20-page paper about this subject
and I took a look at all the foods I eat
and that's how I was able to resolve my
type-2 diabetes now in front of me here
is bread and I use these all these
breads to make sandwiches with nothing
exotic here
that's a croissant that's Wonder Bread
or tortilla an English muffin a
hamburger bun and a bagel I eat them all
but they're not all the same so I went
to my grocery and I purchased all of
these and on the back of each loaf is
the product label the nutrition fact and
I took the numbers right off this
happens to be Wonder Bread I took the
numbers right off of this right off of
this label for each one of these
disquise aunt has 11 carbs per slice 2
slices here Wonder Bread 12 carbs per
slice 4 tortilla 12 carbs per tortilla
that's an English muffin 13 carbs that's
a hamburger bun 14 carbs per slice and
the bagel which is 25 carbs per slice
now the bagel may have a little higher
number because it is a bigger piece of
bread then everything else here but
that's not the important point we can
all read labels the important point is
how much load each one of these breads
puts on my pancreas because my pancreas
is the guy who's failing that's why I'm
a type-2 diabetic and what I needed to
do to resolve my type-2 diabetes was to
find out what I was eating and what had
the most load and let me explain that
down what's important about the load is
what my pancreas has to deal with and
why I discovered is what's important to
me and here's what it is that English
muffin has a load of five point one per
ounce
the Bamberger bun has a load of six
point eight per ounce Wonder Bread has a
load of seven point two per ounce
the tortilla has a load of 7.9 per ounce
the croissant
has a load of 8.7 per ounce and the
bagel has a load of 11.3 per ounce so
when I go to make myself a
ham-and-cheese sandwich the ham doesn't
have carbohydrates the cheese doesn't
have carbohydrates the lettuce doesn't
have carbohydrates and the tomato
negligible carbohydrates I make the
sandwich with the English muffin because
the English muffin is less load on my
pancreas yeah every once in awhile I'll
make a sandwich
with the bagel but I know the bagel is
harder on my pancreas than the English
muffin that's what's important about the
load and the glycemic index now I have a
website you'll see it listed here come
take a look there's bound to be some
information that will be helpful to you
and you can even purchase the paper if
you like come on take a look
