Day 5/30: Avoid Sugar at Breakfast Level IV

annefood 7yr 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 7yr @annefood I have checked! 😉 -
annefood 7yr Fantastic!

Bigo 7yr Hi Davide, what is farro?
-
DavideMarzorati 7yr I think spelt
-
annefood 7yr @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 7yr thanks Anne, I know emmer. Difficult to get here but health food stores might carry it.
-
annefood 7yr @Bigo glad that helped! Farro/emmer is such a versatile grain—I hope you find some!
-
Bigo 7yr 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 7yr @Bigo I'm curious to hear how it compares for you. Please send me a message if you try it!
