Im no expert but bread is considered as a kind of glue, making food on the inside of you stay put and not pass through easily.
I think it also has yeast in it so it can make you bloated.

I don't know about making you fat. Apparently most standard white bread has got high GI, so probably isn't great for dieters. Stick to wholegrain varieties.

Good quality, high fibre, whole grain breads won't make you fat, in and of themselves.

It's all the stuff people put on the bread, or eat with the bread that can be a problem - butter, cheese, mayonnaise - that sort of thing.

Actually humans are not meant to consume grains of any kind. Corn is a great example. Our bodies are not capible of processing grains. This is why wheat need to be processed so heavily, same with rice before we can even eat it.

Bread was always used as a source of fiber, which is to aid in digestion and help clear bowels. That is all it is good for. My advice, if it is worth anything is to consume as little bread as you can possibly manage. I know it is incredibly difficult to do since just about everything western culture consumes has bread in it.

@LIUXUWOAINI,
No dear, bread has no ingredients which make a fat body.
But perhaps use bread only at the time of breakfast with jam or an egg. Bread also used in many dishes like sandwich, burger, pasta.
Bread also builds with quality ingredients.
Use it with fully confidence.

@micalhassi,
1. The initial posting of this thread is dated: Tue 23 May, 2006 03:19 am;
2. The OP hasn't been around since Tue 20 Jun, 2006 04:05 am;
3. Your understanding of nutrition science is utter nonsense.

Quote:
Nutritionists call them carbohydrates. To most of us, they're simply sugars and starches. And although the fructose in soft drinks and the refined flour in white bread taste quite different, "nutritionally and metabolically they're the same as table sugar," explains endocrinologist David S. Ludwig. That's because the body digests all carbohydrate-rich foods into glucose, or blood sugar.


Quote:
Ludwig's team decided to see whether a diet rich in a similar carb promotes fat buildup. They used a proportion of carbs that people on a low-fat diet might eat and compared its effects with that of a diet equal in all respects except that its carbs were mainly a slowly digested starch.

In the September Obesity, the researchers show that animals eating rapidly digested carbs accumulated more fat throughout their bodies—including their livers—than did animals eating primarily the slow-to-digest starch.

I beg to differ. It's VERY difficult to eat a chiliburger or various sandwich without bread. It can get very messy eating an entire chiliburger (piping hot hamburger patty topped with lettuce, tomato, grilled onions, sauteed mushrooms, melted cheese, mustard, ketchup, and chili by hand when the bread bun is missing.

Hey, I never said I was the food police. All I said was try to minimize as much of it that you can if you want a "healthier" diet. Some things might have to be re-thought or abandoned all together. But if you must have buns for your hamburgers or what ever, try to go with the breads with the least amount of excess processing.

A lot of buns are made with extra sugar added to make them more appealing. This just works against you if you are trying to control your sugar intake. If you don't care about how much sugar you in take then by all means keep going with your breads how you like them.

Plain, white bread has almost zip for fiber. It's also much higher on the glycemic index than pure sugar. Somehow, I do suspect that bread can make on fat.

Well the problem is, the net doesn't translte sarcasm very well and on top of that I know people who do eat burgers without buns.
