Day 5/30: Avoid Sugar at Breakfast Level IV

annefood 9yr Awesome @DavideMarzorati ! Greek yogurt is a fantastic choice. Just make sure that the granola and raspberry jam don't have any sneaky hidden sugars. -
DavideMarzorati 9yr @annefood I have checked! 😉 -
annefood 9yr Fantastic!

Bigo 9yr Hi Davide, what is farro?
-
DavideMarzorati 9yr I think spelt
-
annefood 9yr @Bigo @DavideMarzorati Without getting into way more detail than anyone would want, for all intensive purposes they are basically two different varieties of ancient wheat. (It is confusing because spelt is sometimes classified within the farro grouping.) But "true" farro aka emmer, and spelt are not the same. Farro (emmer) has four chromosomes, and spelt has six.
-
Bigo 9yr thanks Anne, I know emmer. Difficult to get here but health food stores might carry it.
-
annefood 9yr @Bigo glad that helped! Farro/emmer is such a versatile grain—I hope you find some!
-
Bigo 9yr I am diabetic so I will need to check what my blood sugar says. I eat fairly low carb but some older types of grain are said to spike the bs less than modern wheat.

annefood 9yr @Bigo I'm curious to hear how it compares for you. Please send me a message if you try it!
