Type 1 Diabetic Gets Great Results Eating Smart Carb # 1 Bread By The Julian Bakery

Today is Julian Bakery’s very first Diabetic Analysis ever! A lot of our customers want to know what kind of affect Julian Bakery bread has on their blood sugar, and rightly so!  From what we know about ketosis, blood glucose levels are essential to being in fat burning mode. These levels are also vital information to someone with Diabetes.  In response to an overwhelming amount of speculation, we will be posting various results from our Diabetic Customers who are submitting their BGL results after eating our breads.
 To clarify, Smart Carb #1 bread has been designed to be Low-Carb bread.  The Julian Bakery has thousands of Type 1 & Type 2 Diabetic customers nationwide, like this one that eats our bread daily and get great results: (Click Here For Larger Version Of Graph)

Customers like this one can eat Smart Carb #1 bread with minimal glucose spike.  Based on the information that we have currently, about 85% of our Diabetic customers can digest Smart Carb #1 with minimal or no sugar spike.
 Our very first customer to submit results comes from Matt (Results Pictured Above), a customer of ours who works for DexCom, the leading blood glucose meter.  Matt is a Type 1 Diabetic who wrote to us after measuring his blood glucose levels with a DexCom unit every 15 minutes after a 5-hour fast followed by eating 2 slices of Julian Bakery Smart Carb #1.  We have assumed that a 4-5 hour fast is a typical time period between meals.  Matt was not on any insulin medication during this time period.  As seen in his results, Matt started with a BGL of 110 mg/dl, which is typical of a Diabetic after fasting.  One hour after eating 2 slices of Smart Carb #1, Matt’s BGL peaked at 131 mg/dl.  This is only an increase of 21 mg/dl, keeping Matt well within the parameters of ‘normal’ for a Type 1 Diabetic after eating.
 According to the American Diabetes Association, goals for glucose control in people with diabetes are sugar levels of 70 to 130 mg/dL before meals, and less than 180 mg/dL after meals.  Matt was so pleased with his results that he recommends our bread to other Diabetics as well as the Diabetic Doctors he knows. For those low carb diet customers we have also had amazing feedback from our customers like this one on Facebook from Lois Dyal, she writes "I tried Smart Carb # 1 on induction and still remained in ketosis and it did not hinder my progress at all. I love it I have a sandwich at least 4 days a week."

Amazing Sourdough Bread By The Julian Bakery

I don’t know about you, but I LOVE sourdough bread!  I would use it for every sandwich I ever ate if I could.  The only reason I have avoided sourdough in the past is because I associated it with plain white bread in terms of its nutritional value.  That’s only because I didn’t know about Julian Bakery’s Amazing Sourdough bread.  There’s no better way to describe this sourdough loaf than the ‘Amazing’ that’s already inferred from its name.  Every slice of this amazingly guilt free sourdough contains 60 calories, 5g of complete protein, 6g of fiber, 4 net carbs, and absolutely no fat.  What really separates this sourdough bread from the rest is the added chicory root, which allows carbohydrates to pass through your body without being broken down and absorbed.

Amazing Sourdough is perfect for keeping a low calorie count during low-carb dieting.  It’s nearly common sense that taking in fewer daily calories than your body is burning is essential to losing weight.  This high fiber, low calorie bread is specifically designed to increase satiety so that you feel satisfied throughout the day.  If you are counting calories or on a low-carb diet, but still want great tasting bread, Julian Bakery’s Amazing Sourdough is the perfect loaf for you!

To help you fully understand how great this Amazing Sourdough bread is for you, I have to dig deep into our Amazing Sourdough fermentation process, and how it breaks down phytates to open up nutrient bioavailability.  The fermentation process includes wild yeast and bacteria which create an end product that is healthier and more digestible than most commercial sourdoughs.  Some of this bread’s terrific health benefits include bacteria which help balance your intestinal flora, improvement in digestion, and an increase in bioavailability of nutrients.  In most bread, indigestible phytates bind to minerals, making them unavailable for digestion.  In sourdough, the fermented bacteria dissolve the phytates, freeing the healthy minerals and making them absorbable.  The healthy bacteria in Sourdough fermentation also contributes to the nutritional value by:

Pre-digesting starches, making the bread easier to digest

• Breaking down gluten, making it tolerable for gluten-sensitive stomachs
• Lowering insulin response & improving glucose tolerance
• Protecting Vitamin B1 from being damaged during baking

For the most phytase activity and thus the most unbound minerals, check out our Real Sourdough Rye. Time and time again, sourdough rye bread is scientifically proven as the healthiest bread. Stay tuned to the Julian Bakery blog for a future post on the great benefits of Rye.

Julian Bakery’s Amazing Sourdough is unique bread designed to curb your appetite and allow you to take in less calories, preventing you from feeling bloated. This soft, delicious bread is absolutely great with any meal! This bread is available in hundreds of stores across the country.  Use the Julian Bakery store finder to locate a Julian Bakery wholesaler near you.  You can also place orders online and have us bake and ship your bread fresh to your door.

Julian Bakery's HCG Diet Alternative: Intro

If you are on a weight loss mission like the rest of America, there are an overwhelming amount of low-carb, smart-carb, no-carb, and high-carb diet plans available to you.  If you haven’t decided which one of the many diet plans is best for you and your health, this may be a good series for you.  Before I dive head first into dieting, I want to make sure that if you are considering starting any major diet change, you should: 

• Complete your due diligence and know what you are getting yourself into
• Research as much information about the diet as you can
• Consult a physician to make sure the diet doesn’t conflict with any current medical issues 

 If you have been following the Julian Bakery blog, you have learned that a low carbohydrate diet is essential to getting your body into ketosis and burning fat as energy.  I personally have had great success losing fat weight during low-carb eating, so I know first hand how great ketosis works.  Some of the most popular low-carb diets are Atkins, New Glucose Revolution, Low GL Diet, and South Beach.  Julian Bakery carries a great low-carb bread selection to help keep your carb count down if pursuing one of these diet methods.

 Unfortunately, Americans these days live a very face paced and impatient lifestyle.  Many people are obsessed with the idea of perfection, and impatient dieters want to see immediate results.  For those of us who tend to be on the more extreme side of things, there is a lot of talk regarding a rather controversial dieting method called hCG dieting.  After discovering this unique diet method, I became intrigued by the theory and read every study I could find across the medical and nutrition world.  At first I was a little skeptical, as the original hCG protocol had a 500 daily calorie intake limit and required no exercise!  Anyone that’s ever looked at a nutrition label knows that 500 Cal/day is a very small amount.  The theory is that a 500 daily calorie diet supplemented with either injections or oral drops of hCG, (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) promotes fat burning and weight loss up to 1lb per day, without any exercise, feelings of starvation, irritation or fatigue.         

Without surprise, hCG, like the other weight loss mechanisms we’ve discussed, is a hormone!  It’s produced in the pituitary gland of both sexes, but is known primarily for its production in females during pregnancy.  It is obvious that anyone eating a 500 Cal/day diet is going to lose weight quickly, however my primary concerns were that the body would begin burning muscle proteins for energy instead of fat (See my Ketosis Article), and that I wouldn’t be able to exercise on the diet.  There have been numerous research studies with positive results showing that the hCG works, however the studies that I found did not go into depth regarding muscle measurements. 

After becoming so intrigued with this dieting theory, I began calling clinics that provide hCG to ask them some questions.  Julian Bakery has a few of these exact clinics in our customer database, due to the fact that the low-carb count of Smart Carb #1 is perfect for hCG dieters.  The one that really stuck out to me was MediPro Direct.  This clinic claims to have a patented hCG serum that contains a few other supplements that are designed to make sure that during the low calorie diet, your body only burns fat, and not muscle.  Their program also allows for more calorie intake (between 800 – 1000 Calories) in order to allow regular exercise while on the diet.  This is exactly what I was looking for: a less intense version of the diet, that doesn’t require cutting out exercise.     

After reading, researching, and contemplating how I was going to go about writing a quality article on hCG, I decided that I couldn’t promote this unconventional diet without actually trying it out on my own.  So I contacted MediPro Direct and worked out a partnership between them and Julian Bakery so that I could see if hCG really works.  One of my coworkers here at Julian Bakery, Elisa, also wanted in on this intriguing test run, so I agreed.  What better way to get the full scope of hCG dieting than to team up with a weight loss clinic and compare notes between both a male and female attempting the diet?    

For 40 days starting in July, Elisa and I will be posting as many details about our hCG diet experience as we can.  We want our readers to be with us every step of the way so that they can make a decision on their own about this intriguing diet.  We will be posting real time stats, numbers, food intake, feelings, emotions, and thoughts.  Starting tomorrow, July 6^th, you can find every last detail of our hCG diet experiment on: http://julianbakeryhcg.blogspot.com/.  We will also be posting semi-regularly here on our main Julian Bakery blog so that our readers can stay updated.  Keep checking back to read all the details of our hCG diet experience!

Low Carb Diet Tips By Cheney Part 2

The Top Three Low Carb Breads of 2011

Julian Breads Makes Type 2 Diabetics Blood Sugar Go Down!

We recently received the following testimonials from a customer who has Julian Breads specifically he had the Smart Carb # 1 bread and here is his testimony:

I recently tried your Smart Carb #1 bread, and I am very impressed with the FIBER content, quality, and texture. In short, it tastes great!
Because I am a Type 2 Diabetic, finding your Smart Carb bread is of even greater importance to me – because it actually seems to help lower my blood sugar!

I have been a Type 2 Diabetic for 15 years, and it has been difficult (until now) to find bread (or other foods) that I can eat which contained as much FIBER (good Carbohydrates) in them.
Any “regular” bread (English Muffin, etc.) sends my blood sugar soaring up to 140-160 or higher, soon after breakfast.
This is because those “other” breads are loaded with sugar, sweeteners, corn syrup, and such carbohydrates – yet only have 1 or 2 grams of FIBER. Your bread has none of this.

I experienced the effect of 12 grams of FIBER (in your Smart Carb #1 Bread) on my blood sugar after eating one delicious slice of it at breakfast one day.
Before breakfast, I had tested my blood sugar. It was 124. About two hours after breakfast, I tested my blood sugar again. It was 109! It had actually gone DOWN from 124 to 109.

This had rarely happened before. It most often goes UP after breakfast – as high as 140, 160 or higher.
I attribute (part) of this amazing result to the addition of the 12 grams of FIBER (a good carbohydrate) in one slice of your “Smart Carb #1 Bread” – to what I had for breakfast.
The 12 grams of FIBER in your bread are much higher than the fiber content in “other” breads – which typically have only 1 or 2 grams of FIBER (plus sugars and starches; the “other” two carbohydrates).

However, please note that my blood sugar reduction (noted above) does NOT happen every day. Further, it is NOT solely one slice of Smart Carb Bread that is responsible for reducing my blood sugar.
As any doctor will tell you, it is the combination of things that you eat and do that will help lower your blood sugar – and keep it at a low level.
This includes minding what you eat, and doing regular exercise to boost your metabolism.

That said, the 12 grams of FIBER in Smart Carb #1 Bread is a BIG HELP.

Breakfast for anyone is usually a great meal, and very tasty for most people.
My typical breakfast includes scrambled eggbeaters, with a slice of fat-free Borden’s American cheese mixed in (to make them creamy).

I include some pan-grilled (heated) sliced turkey or chicken breast (for protein), along with variable combinations of tomatoes, broccoli, mushrooms, black beans, etc.
While these menu items vary for breakfast and other meals – I never eat potatoes, rice, or beef, processed food, or any food with sugars, starch, corn syrup, or excessive salt; and very little saturated fat.

Most Heart and Health specialists believe that FIBER goes a long way toward controlling blood sugar. In fact the AHA recommends 25-35 grams a day.
So Smart Carb #1 Bread was perhaps, literally, a “life saver” for me – because now I can enjoy (Smart Carb #1) bread with my food choices, without worrying about the effect on my blood sugar.

Thank you, Julian Bakery, for having the insight to develop and market this bread.
It costs a bit more than “regular” breads, but I feel my health is worth a lot more than the cost.
Besides, eating bread is a taste I have been missing for so many years – and now I can look forward to eating it every day.

Sincerely,

Charles Archer
Chandler, AZ.
