Do you enjoy your bread?

When talking about diet, a lot of people try to avoid anything related to the word "carbonhydrate"! Rice, noodles, bread, potato...seem like all these filling food are out of popularity when it comes to weight loss programs.

However, as we all know, any extreme diet will only allow you to lose weight for a short period of time (and most of the time, your weight bounces back) and it may cause some unhealthy consequences.

A recent article from The Times, UK, suggests that a moderation intake of bread is important for a healthy diet. It said "the Medical Research Council Human Nutrition Research of bread’s contribution to nutrient intake of the British population found that bread makes important contributions to carbohydrate, dietary fibre, iron, calcium and thiamin intakes..."

I enjoy bread a lot and I definitely would like to have a bakery one day! As long as you know how much to eat, what contents to eat, and maintain a balance of different food group intakes, you already possess your own perfect diet!
