    Despite the advice to avoid white bread and opt for whole grain types, new research indicates that your best bet – for breakfast anyway – is white sourdough. The type of toast you eat for breakfast can affect how your body responds to lunch. Sourdough trumped even whole wheat bread in minimizing spikes in blood sugar among participants who ate sourdough in the morning, suggesting that sourdough can be beneficial for weight loss and managing diabetes.
    "There's an urban myth that if you want to lose weight, you shouldn't eat bread. But the truth is, bread is one of our biggest sources of grains and has a number of healthy benefits.”
    Read on to learn why sourdough is a top pick for part of your morning meal.
