Grains On The
Go -Ezekial Bread
By: Derek Charlebois
In this fast-paced world, fitness enthusiasts need portable meals.
Often times it is not practical to carry the highest quality meals
with you. Bringing quality proteins (i.e. Chicken, tuna, or protein
powder) and fats (i.e. almonds) is easy, but finding a versatile portable
carbohydrate is not. The company Food For Life (www.foodforlife.com)
has created a portable, versatile carbohydrate source…bread!

Now I know what some of you are thinking, but Food For Life’s bread
is made from sprouted grains and does not contain any flour. My personal
favorite is the Ezekiel Sprouted Grain Bread, which is made from:
INGREDIENTS: Organic Sprouted Whole Wheat, Filtered Water, Organic
Malted Barley, Organic Sprouted Whole Millet, Organic Sprouted Whole
Barley, Organic Sprouted Whole Lentils, Organic Sprouted Whole Soybeans,
Organic Sprouted Whole Spelt, Fresh Yeast, Sea Salt.
And has (per slice):
- Fat = 0.5 grams
- Carbohydrates = 15 grams
- 3 grams fiber
- 0 grams sugar
- Protein = 4 grams
This low-glycemic, sprouted grain bread is great source of high quality
carbohydrates. You can put peanut butter (i.e. Smucker’s 100% Natural
Peanut Butter) on 1-2 pieces of bread and get both your required carbohydrates
and fats. Unlike other bread that taste fake and provide little nutrients,
Ezekiel bread tastes great and is good for you. |
