8. White bread

Now we’re not exactly telling you stop making and eating sandwiches, or indeed to change to brown bread, but we were surprised to learn of the detrimental impact white bread can have, especially those who are working out. White bread is highly processed and has most of it’s nutritional value removed, with only basic carbohydrates left to go into your body. This means that white bread impacts the glucose levels in your blood, potentially leading to diabetes.

Check the ingredients on your bread – look for whole grain on the packet, as this will be a much healthier alternative.
