About this episode

The French famously love their delicious baguette and a staggering 320 of them produced every second in France! But Brits, Americans, and people all over the world consume bread be it a baguette, bagel or a bap on a daily basis.

Bread, particularly white bread made from refined grains, is often considered unhealthy due to its high glycemic index, which can lead to rapid spikes in blood sugar levels. This can be a concern for weight management and those with diabetes.

Why is bread considered unhealthy? Which bread should you choose from a nutritional point of view? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
