food pyramid still shows 3-5 servings of wholemeal, cereals and bread, pasta, potatoes and rice. Fad diets are unhealthy.

Keep believing that ... 

 

Diets are unhealthy.  Eating lifestyle, Keto for me, is very healthy.  Y'all been told so many lies for so long, you believe them, food pyramid included .... IMHO

Started a keto diet 1 year ago. Cut out all carbohydrates including bread, rice, pasta. Lost 25 lbs in 3 weeks. Blood pressure dropped from 160/120 to 115/85. I'm the best shape of my life!

Yep, same same, though BP was only in the 140 ish range.  Took all my higher end blood work numbers and made them excellent now.

If no rice or pasta what am I eating with my steak?

Fibrous veggies, and if needing a carb, I'm partial to egg noodles.   Think stroganoff 😎

What a narcissist man you are , bragging 

I wonder what your parents think

I changed to white bread from brown bread 

Peanut butter on brown toast was horrendous 

Baked beans on brown toast likewise so I went back to white bread.

As for grain bread , I really can't see any health benefits,it's grains ,sesame seeds etc stuck in white bread !!

Not really.   Google nutritional facts for 100gr of..

... AP flour

... Bread flour

... whole wheat flour

... & rye flour

 

The rest is personal choice, (sugar & salt), if wanting to add and how much.

My homemade bread has; flour, water, salt, yeast / 500g / 350g / 10g / 10-15g.

 

Mixed flour usually, 50/50 bread/whole wheat, and occasionally, might add 10gr of sugar, depending on flour used & mix of.   That's 10gr of sugar, for about a 825gr loaf of bread.  So fairly irrelevant.

Wheat bread, must be consumed promptly. 

If not white bread is the option, lots more chemicals to maintain freshness. 

 

Nothing better after a few beers, toasted wheat/wholemeal bread, lots of margarine, little bit of Vegemite.

They do, but the bread is nothing like from the shop I mentioned, supermarket bread, from my experience, is full of sugar and preservatives

I agree that the Farmhouse and sliced 5hit is full of sugar etc, but find makro's crusty loaves quite OK. 

But since I got my Breadmaker machine, I know exactly what is going into my bread...and my mouth.

"Be not troubled in poverty nor confident in riches, for poverty is followed by riches, and riches are followed by poverty."  Baha'u'llah  Hyperinflation can make one's wealth (bread) vanish overnight.

Used to get the square German 100% rye bread from Barvaria, think it was partially fermented to give it a sweeter taste at Tops in Chiang Rai.

Apparently unpopular with the Thai Hi-So's what are the MAJORITY of customers in Chiang Rai and they stopped carrying it.

These are the ones who are afraid of brown rice.

PROTIP: Use butter ("Hibachi style") instead of oil to stir fry day old rice to make it taste better but even then don't expect the same taste as jasmine rice

In your honest opinion is based on what? At least the food pyramid is proven to provide all the vitamins and minerals that the body needs. Lack of some vitamins and minerals sometimes do not show up for a long time. There is a maxim that says don't believe everything you think.

On my experience of nor following that, pyramid advice, and how my body feels better, have more energy, and my blood work numbers are markedly improved.  Blood work simply verifies how I feel, since basically doing almost complete opposite of the food pyramid.

 

High protein & fat, and very low starchy carbs & sugar.  Cheeses as snacks instead of high sugar fruits.  As I've stated many times, a Keto ish diet now.

Did not vote because ... this is what I purchase

Sourdough
Rye
Pumpernickel
Multi grain - Nana's multigrain

And on the other end of the spectrum

Croissants

Danish

I rarely buy wheat or white bread. However gladly have either if they come free with the meal.

Same as me almost three years ago.  I had lots of choice in easy to prepare meals and I take light exercise daily

 

I lost 40lb + and ditched the bp etc., medications.

 

I'm still the same weight and have a lot more stamina at 70+ y/o.

Yep, ditto for me also.  Keto ish & intermittent fasting overnight and about the same results.  Without repeating myself again, people really should give it a try, if having weight or blood work numbers on the very high normal side or above.

 

Really does work, with a wee bit of will power, till you adjust to the alternative, 'treats' replacing the sugar and starchy carbs you're use to enjoy.  Surprisingly don't miss much at al.

 

It really is just common sense eating, away from the marketing we're all bombarded with.
