How many slices of whole wheat bread should I have every day?!


Question: I am 15, and pretty active and in good shape. I absolutely love whole wheat, multi-grain bread-yes, the kind you bite into and every bite has little grains and nuts in it. Yep. The kind you buy at a grocery store or the military commisary.
So, how many slices every day should I have for it to be healthy and not too much?? Thanks so much and God bless!

1 slice of bread is a carbohydrate serving, depending on the size of the slice. Some bread slices are so large that they are 2 servings.
Many of those incredibly delicious breads have a lot of sugar as well. Check the nutrition content.
Eat a balanced diet, too much bread will go to your waistline and your hips.
I would limit to a couple of slices a day, add other good carbs, veggies, and small amounts of lean protein.
God bless you and our troops!

2 to 4 should be enough, depending on the calories and carbs
