Day 5/30: Avoid Sugar at Breakfast Level IV

annefood 8yr 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 8yr @annefood I have checked! 😉 -
annefood 8yr Fantastic!

Bigo 8yr Hi Davide, what is farro?
-
DavideMarzorati 8yr I think spelt
-
annefood 8yr @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 8yr thanks Anne, I know emmer. Difficult to get here but health food stores might carry it.
-
annefood 8yr @Bigo glad that helped! Farro/emmer is such a versatile grain—I hope you find some!
-
Bigo 8yr 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 8yr @Bigo I'm curious to hear how it compares for you. Please send me a message if you try it!
