Bread is one of the most controversial foods when it comes to food and especially when it comes to weight loss goals. You've probably heard phrases like: \"If you want to lose weight, cut out bread\" or \"bread is fattening\". But what's the truth in this? Today I want to help you debunk this myth with science-based information. Bread alone is not fattening. Gaining weight or losing weight depends on energy balance: that is, the calories you consume versus the calories you expend in your day. No food, including bread, has the ability to make you fat on its own. What matters is the overall context of your diet and lifestyle. On the other hand, if we talk about \"fattening\" in terms of kcal per 100g. Bread contains about 250-280 kcal per 100g, which if we compare it with fatty foods (cured cheeses, nuts or olive oil) or ultra-processed foods (potatoes, pastries, sausages), it has almost half the kcal. The problem is not the bread, but the quantities: Eating too much bread can unbalance your daily calorie intake. For example, if you eat bread at all your meals, perhaps you should consider increasing the variety of cereals in your day by including quinoa, rice, tubers such as potato, cassava or sweet potato, pasta or breads made from cereals other than wheat, such as rye, spelt, etc. What you accompany it with: If you spread the bread with butter, cocoa cream or fatty sausages, the calorie intake will be much higher. This will keep you satiated and prevent you from eating more kcal than you need. Is bread inflammatory? This question is increasingly asked by people who have suffered or are suffering from digestive pathology due to an imbalance in the microbiota, chronic stress, food intolerance, damaged mucous membranes or other causes. In these cases, they are right to think that bread can aggravate inflammation. If there is a digestive pathology, bread, especially if it contains gluten, can be problematic, and if there is an intolerance or sensitivity to gluten, the inflammation can be even greater. BUT, if you have a healthy microbiota and your digestion is normal, bread, as part of a balanced diet, is not inflammatory in itself. It is true that today's wheat breads are not like those of yesteryear. Nowadays, highly refined flours are used, which provide fewer nutrients.

We live in a world where our diet is becoming increasingly industrialised, and many people consume bread in excess along with other processed foods high in unhealthy fats. This habit can lead to an increase in the daily calories consumed, which in the long term can lead to obesity and associated diseases. Hence the myth that \"bread is bad\" or \"bread is fattening\". But the truth is that it is not the bread that is harmful, but the combination of an unbalanced diet and an unhealthy, sedentary lifestyle. Bread, whether made from wheat or other cereals, is not harmful to health when consumed in moderation and in the context of a balanced diet. However, it is important not to overuse wheat. My advice: vary the grains you eat. Include alternatives such as oats, rye, buckwheat, spelt or maize in your diet. Why? Because consuming too much wheat alone for long periods of time can affect your gut microbiota, which in turn can affect your overall health and weight. In short: Bread is not the enemy.

If it is prior to high-intensity cardiovascular exercise of more than one hour (running, cycling, rowing, etc.), a more refined bread may be a good option for quick energy. Quantity: Consume bread in moderation, adjusting it to your needs and not exceeding your daily calorie intake. If you are unfamiliar with this, consult a nutrition professional for guidance on your needs.  The context of your diet: Make sure that bread is part of a balanced and varied diet, accompanied by other healthy foods such as protein, healthy fats and sufficient vegetables. In short, variety and moderation are key.
