Ezekiel Bread. Why it is Better
By: Road2HardCoreIron Date: August 17, 2025, 5:13 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
As a few of you know. I add Ezekiel to everyone’s diet. See
reviews.
now Ezekiel bread is bad for you too?
I recently started eating Ezekiel bread since people are saying
it has less sugar and it’s whole grain and not as much wheat
which wouldn’t spike your BG.
Now I just saw this guy saying how Ezekiel bread is bad?? Any
thoughts on this?

This does not give specific brands to eat but has good info on
what to eat in general. I trust the Cleveland Clinic way more
than some random guy on Instagram.

One reason Ezekiel bread is good for your blood sugar and is
considered low GI is that it's flourless. I am not aware of any
other store bought bread that is.
It took some digging to find out exactly what this means and
exactly how a bread can be flourless, but I eventually found the
answer somewhere on the Ezekiel website.
They soak whole grains and legumes in water until they sprout.
Then they mash this into a dough and bake it as bread. Flour is
a big blood sugar spiker because it is so broken down into tiny
particles that it digests very quickly. Whole grain flour
mitigates this effect some with the extra fiber, but can still
cause a spike because it's flour. Ezekiel bread on the other
hand is almost like the equivalent of mashing some oatmeal and
baking it into a loaf. The grains aren't as broken down yet by
the time you eat it. I think it truly stands apart as a bread
for this reason, and in my experience I don't see much spiking
when I eat it, whereas whole grain bread made with flour does.
We all digest stuff a little different and YMMV, but for me,
Ezekiel bread has been a boon. I can eat it without fearing a
high blood spike.

Ezekiel is probably better for you than many other breads out
there, that doesn't mean one can gorge on it though. But I doubt
it's "bad for you", anything can be bad for you if eaten in
excess. Even protein or water can be bad for you if you eat too
much than you need.

Yeah I don’t gorge on it. I eat maybe like 2-3 slices a day.
Usually as a toast with almond butter or avocado toast or even
add protein to it with avocado but always one slice at a time

Not bad as long as you can fit the carbs into your macro

Old thread but for anyone else who landed here... if you can eat
wheat products, this is the healthiest bread you can possibly
find. It's literally older than the bible and people have been
eating it for thousands of years. As a paleo bro, you'd think
he'd appreciate the OG status of this bread.

Everything is bad depends on volume and frequency of
consumption. But this bread is one of the healthiest choices on
the market it’s a complete protein (has all 9 essential amino
acids) low glycemic (complex carb/high fiber) which means it
won’t spike your blood sugar up as much as high glycemic
foods(sugars/simple carbs). Organic whole food ingredients. The
best diet is just eating 80-90% Whole Foods (any
meat,eggs,potatoes,dairy,etc. Organic/grass-fed,cage-free,etc is
better since a proper healthy animal gives off better
nutrients), snack on fruits, vegetables, and watching calorie
consumption.

I eat it daily because it doesn't raise my bg like even whole
wheat bread. It's a little dry sometimes and those round seeds
kill my teeth but it's been great for my health. There will
always be people that talk bad about anything you like. Eat what

People, all bread is bad, there are no shortcuts. Food for Lives
Ezekiel bread, 15 grams of carbs per 34 gram slice = 44%Sugar.
Taking fiber into account 35% net sugar.

Bro please ignore this Paul saladino guy. He is a carnivore
zealot who thinks any other diet is shit. He even has a video
saying all veggies are bad. Kale is bad blah blah. He picks a
random molecule present in a vegetable and says it is toxic.
Completely ignoring that dosage makes the difference. You can
find such molecules in meat too. Overwhelming scientific
evidence says eating plants and whole grains with high fiber is
beneficial to your long healthy life. It doesn’t even have to be
100% vegan. You can be a healthy omnivore. Unfortunately people
at r/keto have fallen into this guy’s mindset.

Every body is so different. Nothing biologically makes sense
from his video unless you are gluten intolerant. When I eat
Ezekiel bread I feel like my best self lol those carnivore
people need to chill. I get it it’s a nice diet for those
willing to commit but it’s not the only way to a healthy
lifestyle.
