How freezing your bread makes it healthier for blood sugar control and gut health

Freezing bread transforms its starch structure, creating resistant starch that digests slowly, much like fiber. This process leads to steadier blood sugar levels, improved gut health by feeding beneficial bacteria, and more sustained energy. Studies show freezing and defrosting white bread can reduce post-meal blood glucose spikes by up to 30 percent.
