Is Whole-Grain Bread Healthy?
Whole-grain bread is a healthy food if the bread qualifies as a true whole-grain product, says the Harvard School of Public Health. True whole-grain bread contains fiber, minerals and vitamins that refined grain products lack. Eating foods that are rich in fiber may protect you against heart disease, diabetes and cancer. The complex carbohydrates in whole-grain bread provide a low-fat source of energy.
