Scroll down to end of page for list of local sources of bread.
You probably heard from many folks or diets that bread is
bad. Let’s not throw out the baby with
the bath water. Dr. Price found many
civilizations had bread. The problem is
most of the bread on the market is horrible – GMO, unsprouted, refined, added ingredients
and synthetic vitamins,
Grains require careful preparation
because they contain a number of anti-nutrients that can cause serious health
problems. Phytic acid, for example, is an organic acid in which phosphorus is
bound. It is mostly found in the bran or outer hull of seeds. Untreated phytic
acid can combine with calcium, magnesium, copper, iron and especially zinc in
the intestinal tract and block their absorption. This is why a diet high in
improperly prepared whole grains may lead to serious mineral deficiencies and
bone loss. The modern misguided practice of consuming large amounts of
unprocessed bran often improves colon transit time at first but may lead to
irritable bowel syndrome and, in the long term, many other adverse effects.

When looking for bread, be sure to look
for organic, stone ground, sprouted or sour dough whole grain breads and
enjoy them with butter or cheese.
