How to Buy Bread

Diet and nutrition image.

If you include bread in your diet, here are some things to consider when shopping:

  • Look for bread made from whole grains, especially those with sprouted grains, which offer more naturally occurring vitamins, minerals and fiber.
  • Avoid breads made from enriched white flour. Processing of most flours involves heat and bleach which destroy vital nutrients of the grain.
  • Find breads without preservatives. Search the freezer section for products that are wholesome and avoid additives in an attempt to extend shelf life.

Like any change, making healthier choices means developing new tastes and new habits. Visit your local health food store. Make it an adventure and give yourself time to appreciate the subtle flavors.

Dr. Adam Asks some important questions of interest to Boynton Beach residents - Chiropractor Boynton Beach Dr. Adam Asks...

Where do most Boynton Beach residents get their first subluxation?
Being born in a hospital is a common source of subluxation. Trauma from forceps delivery has been replaced with drugs, vacuum extraction, Cesarean section and births that are "scheduled" to fit the workweek routines of Ob-Gyns. That's why we recommend a chiropractic checkup for every Boynton Beach newborn.
What's the difference between a "good" drug and a "bad" drug?
As a chiropractor, I see the use of many drugs (legal or illegal) as merely symptom treating. Worse, virtually every drug produces unwanted effects. The effects of chiropractic are largely positive effects. If you're a Boynton Beach parent, consider carefully before giving your child a cough medication, cold remedy or pain reliever so this sort of question doesn't arise in the first place.
