As per the researchers this practically means that it leaves us satisfied and relives us from the hunger pangs.
Whole grain bread:
The bread is a natural source of fibers and complex carbohydrates and one don’t need to get feared of it. It is the butter, margarine or cream cheese which you apply on it is fattening.
