Whole-wheat bread
Although whole-wheat bread is a healthy type of bread you can eat daily, it can be difficult to find the right whole-wheat bread. Just because some companies label their bread with “wheat flour” and “wheat” doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re buying whole wheat bread. Before buying any whole-wheat bread, make sure you read the ingredient list.
Brown rice bread
Brown rice bread is also perfect for weight loss. It keeps you full, energetic, and it’s low in calories and sugar. Try eating brown rice bread with butter and fresh vegetables or low-fat cheese. If you stick to a very strict diet, consider having steamed or boiled vegetables with a few pieces of brown rice bread.
Gluten-free bread
Even though a gluten-free bread is a must for people who stick to a gluten-free diet, it’s also perfect for those who are trying to lose weight or simply want to eat healthier. Gluten-free bread is healthier than regular white bread, but many of them are processed so make sure you buy whole grain gluten-free bread.
