Nutrition Tip: "Whole wheat breads are more nutritious than white breads. During the process of refining the wheat the bran is removed. Wheat bran is a valuable source of many B-vitamins including folic acid. For better family health choose whole wheat bread instead of white bread. Some bread can be brown and called ‘wheat bread’ by the manufacturer, but is not made from whole wheat flour. It’s important to check the ingredients found on the bread label. The first ingredient should be whole wheat flour instead of enriched flour." Julie Maniord, RD
