A major scientific review is challenging the idea that more protein is always better.

The review, led by pathologist and biomedical researcher Dudley Lamming and published in the journal Cell Press Blue, examined more than 350 studies involving humans, mice, insects, yeast, and other organisms.

The review found that eating less protein, or less of certain amino acids that make up protein, may turn on body processes linked to healthier aging, as well as metabolism, the process by which the body turns food and drinks into energy.

    Yeah, bread is carbohydrates and your body turns all carbohydrates into glucose in your blood, however high blood sugar isn’t great so the body releases insulin to get blood sugar back to normal… the insulin forces your fat cells to take in all this new glucose (that’s how it lowers your blood sugar)…

    Therefore - bread makes you fat.

      Hot tip: don’t eat a loaf for breakfast.

      Humans lived thousands of years on bread and fish without obesity.
