Bread is an immensely popular food for several reasons. Not only does bread have a reputation for being cost-effective and widely available — it's also just simply delicious.
With all of this in mind, it makes sense that if you eat carbohydrate-rich bread every day, you will likely feel more satisfied. After all, our bodies absolutely love carbs, says registered dietitian Elizabeth Merrill. "Eating bread every day is going to help you stay satisfied, energized, and able to focus on other more important things," Merrill shared with The List. According to Merrill, bread is our brain's preferred energy source over all other foods, which means your noggin will thank you.
Quite opposite effect may occur if you don't allow bread in the house, says Merrill. "If you restrict bread, or other sources of carbs (like pasta, rice, cereal), your body is naturally going to crave them and have an unfulfilled need," the dietician continued. In other words, you may find yourself caving into that pasta craving, or eating cheat meals more than you should when you're on a low-carb diet.
