SMART CARB #1 CAN HELP YOU LOSE WEIGHT AND STAY HEALTHY

Dietary fiber intake provides many health benefits and reduces the risk for developing coronary heart disease, stroke, hypertension, diabetes, obesity and certain gastrointestinal disorders. Increased consumption of dietary fiber also improves serum lipid concentrations, lowers blood pressure, improves blood glucose control in diabetes, promotes regularity, appears to improve immune function and last, but certainly not least, aids in WEIGHT LOSS.

Epidemiological studies indicate that dietary fiber intake, especially of whole grains or cereal fiber, protect against obesity. Studies recently reviewed and summarized indicate a strong negative association between fiber intake and obesity. The studies indicate that men and women with the highest level of fiber consumption have a relative lower risk for obesity compared to those with the lowest fiber intake level. Men and women with the highest level of fiber consumption had lower rates of weight gain and less obesity than those with the lowest level of fiber intake. Thus, these studies suggest that high-level fiber consumption reduces risk for gaining weight or developing obesity by approximately 30%. These studies included a wide diversity of ethnic/racial groups and appear to have wide applicability and strongly suggests that individuals who have higher levels of fiber consumption have lower weights than those with the lowest fiber intakes.

The role of dietary fiber in preventing and managing obesity in humans is strongly supported by epidemiological and physiological studies. Clinical trials using high fiber foods also provide support for the hypothesis that higher-level fiber consumption has a beneficial role in weight management.

The effects of a diet high in complex carbohydrates (and higher in dietary fiber) provides persuasive data that this type of diet promotes greater weight loss than a high simple-carbohydrate (and lower fiber) diet.

Therefore, you do not have to give up your favorite breads when dieting…nor should you. A wholesome, nutritious diet, whether for weight loss or a healthier lifestyle should include bread with sprouted whole grains that is high in fiber and protein and low in carbs…and, in my opinion, that bread should be Smart Carb #1.

Before I was introduced to Julian Bakery, I never ate bread…thinking it was too fattening. Now that I eat 2 slices of Smart Carb #1 a day, I have lost 7 pounds…go figure. Yeah…go figure all right; my figure is improving daily and I feel fantastic, energetic and have a lot less stress. Just try to take away my JB bread…NOT!

Julian Bakery’s SMART CARB #1 Low Carb Bread

Even though the Julian Bakery has been baking breads for twenty years now, I feel it has been a “best kept secret,” known only to a select following. They have an amazing list of breads that will make you question if you are dreaming or awake as you take your first bite.

I can no longer keep this “best kept secret” to myself. Today I am here to share the news about Julian Bakery’s most popular bread, SMART CARB #1. The name may leave a lot to be desired, but there is no room for improvement where this bread is concerned. It has it all – nutrition, quality ingredients, taste, texture and grain that is cultured, stone ground and free of pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Besides all that, it contains high amounts of protein and fiber. Each slice contains 12g of dietary fiber and 12g of protein. Better still, each slice contains just 1 net carb.

It’s not only perfect for low carb dieters, but anyone looking for natural, healthy, great tasting bread; and worth every penny of its $7.99 a loaf price tag.

A loaf of SMART CARB #1 weighs about 1.5 pounds and is made up of sprouted whole grains, bean, and seeds of *wheat, *Kamut®, *spelt, *millet, lentils, eggs, soy protein, flax seeds, sesame seeds, *quinoa, *amaranth, wheat, gluten, oat bran, sea salt and yeast.
*Organically Grown

You can see from the ingredients above and the nutrition facts below that this bread is of the highest quality and would compliment any low carb diet, or family meal for that matter.

JULIAN BAKERY – NET CARBS – ATKINS DIET FOLLOWERS

Carbohydrates are organic compounds consisting of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Carbohydrates behave differently in the body, depending on their individual molecular structure. Most carbs turn into blood sugar (glucose) when they are digested. Those carbs provide approximately 4 calories per gram. Other carbohydrates, however, do not turn into glucose when digested. Those are most commonly known as polyols. Still other carbs, like fiber, simply pass through our bodies as waste. Therefore, only carbohydrates that are used by the body are counted as Net Carbs.

Your body burns carbs for energy and stores the excess carbs as fat. The fewer carbs you eat, especially white flour and sugar, allows your body to begin burning fat as its primary fuel source.

On a low carb diet, such as the Atkins Diet, you eat lean protein and vegetables and other good carbs, such as high fiber fruits, nuts and whole grains. Your body starts burning fat instead of carbs.

On the Atkins Diet, you count Net Carbs, which means the total carbohydrate content of the food minus the fiber content. The Net Carb number reflects the grams of carbohydrate that impact your blood sugar level. Net Carbs are the only carbs you need to count on the Atkins Diet.

The Julian Bakery offers a perfect bread for low carb dieters. SMART CARB #1. They use whole grain that is ground fresh daily in their unique formula, making it a complete protein LOW CARB BREAD. This bread is extremely high in fiber and protein and has a net of 1 carb per slice.

There is no other bread like it on the market. It offers the perfect amount of daily fiber and protein - 12g of protein and 12g of fiber per slice. With only 1 Net Carb per slice, carb-conscious dieters do not have to sacrifice their longing for bread.

Check out SMART CARB #2 – CINNAMON ALMOND RAISIN. It is awesome toasted or used for French toast….OK…I use it for sandwiches too. I can’t say it is my favorite, since I have so many favorite Julian Bakery breads, but it is right up there at the top.

I hope you are enjoying their breads as much as I do and branch out once in a while and try a different loaf…like Manna from Heaven or Apple Cinnamon Raisin…yummy!!!

Julian Bakery offers such a variety of breads, each with its own texture and distinctive blending of flavors. I am sure you will find several favorites that you will want to be sure to have on hand at all times.
