So I was talking to my sister and she told me I should be eating Sprouted Grain Bread instead of regular bread.
I was expecting it not taste very good, to my surprise it taste a lot like regular wheat bread. Now to figure out why it's supposed to be good for me |
| Twenty five years ago there was a hippy dippy bakery in Ann Arbor, the People's Food Coop (stfu, i was getting laid) that sold sprouted grain muffins they called Essene Rolls. Allegedly made from a dead sea scroll recipe or something. They were awfully damn good. Made you poop really well, too. I miss 'em. |

Quoted: I just tried Ezekiel bread yesterday for the first time. Whole grain is what we've eaten for years and I can't tell much difference. Supposedly, the starches in the bread are used up in the sprouting process. And when starches are broken down they turn into..... |

Supposedly, the starches in the bread are used up in the sprouting process. And when starches are broken down they turn into..... cellulose? Both cellulose and starch are sugar molecules that are linked together in long chains. Humans and animals possess the enzymes to break down starch in the foods we eat into individual molecules of sugar so it can be absorbed. However, humans and most animals do not possess the enzymes that can break down cellulose. Some animals, such as cows and other ruminants, have bacteria (Ruminococcus albus and Ruminococcus flavifaciens) in their stomachs that do possess such enzymes which can therefore break down cellulose into individual sugar molecules which are then absorbed by the cow. |
