Rye bread is very good for you..and I love pumpernickel. It is, however,

a member of the wheat family, triticale. Many of your lighter rye breads

also have the addition of regular bread wheat. The high gluten of

wheat flour also allows people to make multi-grain breads. There are many

different types of bread made with wheat flours that do not " suck

the energy out of you. " Even oatmeal bread, which requires the use

of wheat flour. Too much of anything, in my opinion isn't good for you.

The more rounded and diverse the diet, the better for you - and

everything in moderation. Unless, of course, you have a physical

condition which precludes the eating of certain things.

 

If you only sit behind a desk,

then it is harder to tell what food gives you the energy, and what does

not. But if you do hard labor.....or hard physical workouts like lifting

weights, it is easy to feel what food gives you the energy, and what does

not. And wheat bread does not, on the contrary.....it sucks energy out of

you. On the other hand rye bread gives you energy, it gives you a surplus

of energy for your work - workout. And so does oatmeal, there is a hell

of a difference with starting the day on wheat bread.....and starting the

day on a oatmeal - porridge. This is commonly accepted where I

is.

bad for you, and which is good. White bread is made of wheat, so what is

the big difference between white bread and pasta.

WHEAT SHORTAGES

Wheat is wheat, and it is bad food. I f you ever have taken your

blood sugar, you will know, if you ever have eaten it before some types

of workout, you will know, it does not only gives you no energy....but it

sucks out the energy you had.

This is a site about commodities, which explains the different names

for wheat, as well as the different types.

The info below only really applies to wheat grown in the

Kinds of Wheat

 

 

 

There are several types of wheat, but they all fall into

two main categories. These two categories are spring wheat andwinter

wheat. Wheat is grouped by its growing season. There are about thirty

species of wheat, but only three are common in the United States. These

three are:wheat.

Durum Wheat - Durum wheat is used in many pasta products

because the wheat holds together when made into a paste. It is a spring

wheat and grows in Minnesota, North and South Dakota, and southern

Canada.

Common Wheat - This is also called " bread wheat " and is the

most widely grown type of wheat. It can be either a spring or winter

wheat. In the United States, it is grown on the prairies.

Club Wheat - It can be either a spring or winter wheat and it is

closely related to the common wheat. In the United States, it is grown in

the Pacific Northwest.

Copied from

http://library.thinkquest.org/5443/typesofwheat.html There

are also some links on the site which get more specific.

For us its not like that - my husband takes a variable insulin dose - I cook pasta maybe 3 times a year we eat bread most days, never white, often non-wheat breads - I was going only by my own experience and offering only that as a reference.

I am not asking anything, I am too, only going by my own experience, which is lifting weights.

When I was young, we had basically two breads.....rye-bread.....French-bread......and sometimes sifted rye flour bread. But now after the academic revolutionary have come to power, we have all kinds of strange bread, multi cultural bread market. I can hardly get just an ordinary Rye-bread, without those bloody kernel of all sorts.....and whole grain you are sitting and gnashing on. Well, if you ask the academician, our health is great. But to me it looks horrible, people are dying of cancer like flies, it is an epidemic. More and more people get diabetic, and doctors throwing medicine around like they were payed by the pounds. What make me sick is, people just sit, and the doctors say you need statin......you need blood pressure pills......and ten different pills more, and they just do what they are told.And our food is industrialized and it means it is filled up with chemicals, one thing there is hard to avoid is aspartame.Den 23/02/2008 kl. 13.37 skrev Jane MacRoss:lol - nor do I!

It is horrendous to see how passively our fellow countrymen all accept like sheep whatever the Drs like to dish out ....... sorry to hear everything is so bad there too - I always think Scandinavia would be healthy!

Re: PASTA LA VISTA, BABY - WORLD WHEAT SHORTAGES

When I was young, we had basically two breads.....rye-bread.....French-bread......and sometimes sifted rye flour bread. But now after the academic revolutionary have come to power, we have all kinds of strange bread, multi cultural bread market. I can hardly get just an ordinary Rye-bread, without those bloody kernel of all sorts.....and whole grain you are sitting and gnashing on.

 

Well, if you ask the academician, our health is great. But to me it looks horrible, people are dying of cancer like flies, it is an epidemic. More and more people get diabetic, and doctors throwing medicine around like they were payed by the pounds. What make me sick is, people just sit, and the doctors say you need statin......you need blood pressure pills......and ten different pills more, and they just do what they are told.

 

And our food is industrialized and it means it is filled up with chemicals, one thing there is hard to avoid is aspartame.

Re: PASTA LA VISTA, BABY - WORLD WHEAT SHORTAGES

I am not asking anything, I am too, only going by my own experience, which is lifting weights. And when you try to lift your maximum, you certainly learn what not to eat.......the difference is hauling your self in to the gym and not lifting 500 pounds....and springing in and lifting 500 pounds 10 times.

 

And there I learned not to eat French bread.

 

I do not remember what this was about, your experience.

Re: PASTA LA VISTA, BABY - WORLD WHEAT SHORTAGES

Well, when you take a blood sugar drogs ( pills ) you take a steady amount, then it is easy to see what food effect you the most. And when you do a hard physical work....such as a power lifting effort, it is easy to feel what food is bad for you, and which is good. White bread is made of wheat, so what is the big difference between white bread and pasta.

Wheat is wheat, and it is bad food. I f you ever have taken your blood sugar, you will know, if you ever have eaten it before some types of workout, you will know, it does not only gives you no energy....but it sucks out the energy you had.

Kinds of Wheat There are several types of wheat, but they all fall into two main categories. These two categories are spring wheat andwinter wheat. Wheat is grouped by its growing season. There are about thirty species of wheat, but only three are common in the United States. These three are:wheat.

 

Durum Wheat - Durum wheat is used in many pasta products because the wheat holds together when made into a paste. It is a spring wheat and grows in Minnesota, North and South Dakota, and southern Canada.

Common Wheat - This is also called "bread wheat" and is the most widely grown type of wheat. It can be either a spring or winter wheat. In the United States, it is grown on the prairies.
