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."


 Stay tuned to the Julian Bakery blog to watch as we compile and announce this valuable blood glucose data from our customers!

JULIAN BAKERY OFFERS THE BEST LOW CARB BREADS AVAILABLE

If you are on a low carb diet and are hooked on Smart Carb #1 (which nets at only 1 carb), but would like a change of pace from time to time, Julian Bakery also offers Cinnamon Almond Raisin (AKA Smart Carb #2).

Cinnamon Almond Raisin is made with the same ingredients as Smart Carb #1, but with the addition of cinnamon, almonds and a light amount of raisins. It is sweet free and very high in fiber and protein. It’s a very yummy treat and nets at only 3 carbs.

Cinnamon Almond Raisin is full of whole grains, sprouted Kamut®, wheat, spelt, rye, millet, quinoa, amaranth (see definitions below), flax and sesame seeds, eggs, soy protein, oat bran, lentils, 7 grain flakes, almonds, cinnamon, a few raisins, yeast and sea salt.

Whole grains or foods made from them contain all essential parts and naturally occurring nutrients of the entire grain seed. If the grain has been processed (cracked, crushed, rolled, extruded, and/or cooked), the food product should deliver approximately the same rich balance of nutrients that are found in the original grain seed.

Sprouted Kamut®, the Ancient Grain, is a relative of modern Durum Wheat. Kamut® has a rich, buttery flavor and is higher in protein and many minerals (especially selenium, zinc, and magnesium) than other wheat products. It is easily digestible.

Wheat is any of various annual cereal grasses of the genus Triticum of the Mediterranean region and Southwest Asia, ground to produce flour used in breadstuffs and pasta.

Spelt is a nutritious ancient grain with a nut-like flavor. The texture is slightly crunchy. Spelt is an excellent source of vitamin B2, a very good source of manganese and a good source of niacin, thiamin and copper.

Rye is a grass grown as a grain. It is closely related to barley and wheat. Rye has a lower gluten content than wheat flour and contains a higher proportion of soluble fiber.

Millets are a group of small-seeded species of cereal crops or grains. Millets are a major food source in arid and semi arid regions around the world.

Quinoa is a species of goosefoot (chenopodium) and is a grain-like crop grown for its seeds. It is not a true cereal or grain, as it is not a grass. Quinoa is closely related to beets, spinach and tumbleweeds. Unlike wheat or rice, Quinoa contains a balanced set of essential amino acids, making it an unusual complete protein. It is a good source of fiber and phosphorus and is high in magnesium and iron. It is gluten-free and easy to digest.

Amaranth is related to the pigweed or lamb’s quarters. Amaranth seeds contain protein that is unusually complex for plant sources. Several studies have shown that Amaranth seed or oil may be of benefit for those with cardio vascular disease and hypertension. Regular consumption may reduce blood pressure and cholesterol levels, while improving antioxidants.

So when you want to treat yourself to a little low carb variety, give Cinnamon Almond Raisin a try. You will love it as much as Smart Carb #1 and it is great as French toast as well!!!

Enjoy, Samantha

History of The Julian Bakery

If this is your introduction to the Julian Bakery, you’re in for a real treat – a taste treat of breads that is.

The Julian Bakery began 20 years ago in the quaint, historical town of Julian, in the mountains above San Diego, California. An expansion led the business to the seaside community of La Jolla, California, still in the county of San Diego.

Owner and nutritionist, Barbara Squier, creates unbelievable breads; breads you can’t even imagine exist. OK, that’s how I felt when I was first introduced to Barbara and her breads, way back when. I had never seen such beautiful loaves, or smelled such incredible aromas; nor did I know bread could even weigh so much. I can’t tell you how many customers have told me they feel full after eating just one slice.

The bakery’s customers love the distinct taste of the variety of different grains, while enjoying the health benefits of breads made without preservatives or synthetic chemicals.

There are so many flavors and textures from which to choose, your taste buds will just scream, “THANK YOU!” There is something for most everyone: celiacs, diabetics, low carb dieters, vegetarians, vegans, children, and even the most discriminating gourmets. Anyone who is looking for marvelous, healthy, innovative and delicious breads will be ecstatic they found the Julian Bakery.

There are 1 ½ lb. sliced loaves and 1 lb. unsliced rounds, all chock-full of natural, organic and healthy ingredients. There are Low Carb, Wheat Free, Yeast Free, Sweet Free, Gluten Free breads to suit your individual needs.

JB’s most popular breads are the Manna from Heaven, recommended for a healthy heart, diabetes and weight release by Dr. Rosedale in his diet book, and Smart Carb #1, with a net 1 carb per slice, also recommended by Dr. Rosedale.

Finding the Julian Bakery might just change the way you view eating and the way you plan your meals, especially if you have had to go without bread for so long, because you could not find any that suited your needs. For me? I find the Apple Cinnamon Raisin suits my needs for French toast just fine….and I could eat half a round of Real Sourdough Rye dunked in olive oil and vinegar, along with a home cooked Italian meal…but that’s just me.

Stay tuned…I will be giving you loads of information on the health benefits of each bread and its ingredients, along with recipe ideas and much more in the near future.

Enjoy, Samantha
