White Bread Linked to Obesity: A recent study has confirmed a link between being overweight or obese and eating white bread daily. In fact, eating just three slices of white bread per day raise the odds-by half-of someone becoming overweight. However, there was no weight gain found for people who ate whole grain bread.
In this study, researchers in Spain, from the University of Navarra, tracked the weight of almost 10,000 people. The participants of this study were followed for five years. The people studied were tasked with filling out a 136-item questionnaire, and their weight gain was tracked consistently over the course of the study.
