    While organizing a grocery list today, I was listening to Sci Fri. Robert Lustig was discussing fallacies of fat; http://sciencefriday.com/segment/01/11/2013/the-fallacies-of-fat.html also his book: Fat Chance

    I know that insulin makes people fat and this offers a good explanation of why this is so. I think most of us here are familiar with the importance of diet and it’s affect on Disease. Good rule of thumb, don’t eat anything that has a label (processed food). So even “whole grain” bread is pulverized too much to do much good in slowing the effects of sugar. Food for thought!

    I agree with you. Do you make your own bread ? I have a bread machine, and I would love a good recipe to make homemade , good -for =you bread.
    Take care.

    I used to make bread. I started gaining too much weight, though. I happen to have my Grandmother’s cookbook; The American Woman’s Cookbook (1945), and used recipes from that.
