I haven't done this for a while, between being busy with life, death, disease and depression, but I've started again on request.  Hopefully I will get one every day.


Today's interesting fact has to do with Rye Bread.


Rye bread is a traditional bread, that used to be made in most western countries, but has been supplanted almost completely by easier made wheat breads, which is a shame.


While Rye flour has some gluten in it, it doesn't seem to be enough to to trigger coeliac disease or IBS, which gluten has been linked to.


Rye bread is also good for those with insulin issues (such as diabetics) as it doesn't trigger glucose spikes.

Ask at your local supermarket for Rye bread and get this traditional foodstuff back on the shelves.
