Morrisons Wholemeal Protein Bread, 400g

Product Information

I’m preparing to do low carb as soon as Trulicity wears off, but I wondered where is the best place to find low carb alternatives? Mainly I want low carb wraps and bread, but I’ve been to morrisons and not found a great deal. Protein bread is worth trying and will still need pairing, however, if you struggle to tolerate these then move on to better alternatives that are mentioned above. Bagels

Tortilla wraps can vary vastly in nutritional value. Some can be much higher in carbs and many are made with refined white flour which many GD mothers may find more difficult to tolerate.A study in May 2008, The impact of freezing and toasting on the glycaemic response of white bread, found freezing bread before toasting achieved better postprandial glucose levels

I am used to low carb substitutions and knew this wouldn't be a miracle replacement for pasta but this is just inedible. The pasta stays like rubber no matter how long you cook it for, the whole bag had to go in the bin. Bagels are very high in carbs making them a bread item that is very hard to tolerate and risky to try. If you’re craving a bagel, then the best alternative that is worth trying is the Warburtons Protein Thin Bagels. Each 60g Warburtons Protein Thin bagel contains 23.5g carbs, 8.5g protein and 2.8g fat. They are suitable for Vegans and can be found in selected ASDA, Tesco and Morrisons stores.

Re buttered bread - the butter being fatty will probably be "cloaking" the carbs in the bread and slowing down the rate at which they're processed. Apparently this is quite normal for fat/carbs combinations and I've seen it occur in other similar situations as a longish low hump rather than a larger spike when using my Libre sensor.If you struggle to find the bread mentioned above, I’ve compiled a comparison chart for bread, flatbreads and sandwich thins showing some popular brands. They are sorted by carbohydrate amount, but it is important to also take into account the protein, fat and fibre content too. I have focused on serving sizes rather than just nutritional information per 100g as with slices of bread we tend to eat 2 smaller loaf slices or 1 larger loaf slice. Where the loaf is a smaller size, 2 slices have been calculated and per individual item for flatbread or sandwich thins. In this table below I have compared many of main brand larger tortilla wraps so you can find ones which are lower in carbs and higher in protein and fat. Please note the nutritional information shared below is per wrapand wrap sizes can vary. I have only compared larger sized wraps, not mini versions: One serving contains a full 27 grams of protein and only 6 grams of carbs, which is significantly less than regular pasta.

All bread needs to be ‘paired’ (eaten with) with additional protein and good fats to make it more tolerable, so it does not cause a high spike in blood sugars. Avoid eating any bread with just butter as this will not be enough to slow down the release of glucose. Items highlighted in Redcan be eaten, but with caution due to the high carb amounts and/or white flour which covert to glucose much faster than wholegrain/wholewheat alternatives Product If you really want to make a success of low carb I'd heartily suggest avoiding "low carb" substitues and instead just eat single ingredient foods cooked fresh. I shop in Lidl and buy eggs and mozzarella cheese - amongst other things - and I use them as the base for 'chaffles' cheese waffles. Hovis make a couple of lower carb breads which are much better than their regular wholemeal or seeded breads. In the Wholemeal version there is 9.8g carbs, 5.8g protein and 1.3g fat per large slice which is great if you are not keen on seeded breads.Choosing a low carb lifestyle can feel restricting, That’s why we created bread that puts health and wellbeing first, so you don’t have to banish the food you love. With added flavour from brown linseeds you’ll feel fuller longer with boosted energy levels. I created Gestational Diabetes UK as a GD Mum, for other Mums. I’m dedicated to providing information on gestational diabetes, from diagnosis through to birth and beyond. Most of us love bread and with so many different types of bread on the market, what are the best bread for those trying to keep blood sugar levels lower and stabilised with gestational diabetes? Wraps are another wheat or bread type product that need to be compared carefully as some contain very high amounts of carbs. I've just tried the bread to save making my own and was very disappointed - the loaf is about 2" wide and contains just five slices , so rather expensive for what it is , and I didn't actually like the taste as much as the commercial low carb bread mixes I sometimes use either.... which are also quite expensive but do last for much longer.
