Some foods are considered harmful, as they can lead to severe fluctuations in blood sugar, fatty liver, nutrient loss, and negative health effects such as addiction/overconsumption.
White bread and other grains are seen as harmful for several reasons:
They contain a large amount of refined carbohydrates, which can quickly break down into glucose, causing sharp increases in blood sugar and insulin.
The glycemic index difference between white bread (75) and whole wheat bread (74) is actually very small, both classified as high-GI foods.
These breads lack sufficient soluble fiber, which cannot significantly slow down the blood sugar response, unlike low-GI foods such as meat, fruits, and nuts.
Many people are also allergic to gluten and other components in wheat bread, which can trigger inflammation and digestive issues.
The mechanism of carbohydrate absorption in food is more important than just looking at fiber content; it is the key factor causing negative health effects.
