Bread

Bread has received a great deal of negative attention in the last decade. And for good reason. Most breads are energy dense, yet nutrient depleted.

But if you're savvy with your slice, you can enjoy bread in moderation. When looking for bread, choose those made from organic whole grains (or sprouting grains) which contain no trans fat or partially hydrogenated oils.
