Wow, I do freeze my bread and take out and toast what I am going to use and leave the rest in the freezer. I don't eat bread daily though. My uncle told me this a long time ago and he said toasted bread is easier on the stomach, he was the supervisor over nutrition at the hospital he worked in, he is now is 92 years old and in good health. He still drives and does gardening.
Congratulations Joyce!!! My father is 90 but got the Jab due to my evil sister so up until this jab he was very well and driving but now is begining to not remember how to get places. Things he has done forever like playing cards he now suddenly forgets how to play them which has all came on SUDDENLY so IDK I wish he'd of listened to me. Most all of my family took the Jab so I'm sad. 😭 😣🙏❤️
@@markrush5013 no, not a massive difference. You are confusing titles he holds a D. C. Which is a Doctor of Chiropractic degree; in the US the ability to confer degrees is monitored by the state (sometimes federal) governments and Regional Accreditation Councils. MD's, which is what you are thinking of, are Doctors of Medicine, I hold a PhD (Doctor of Philosophy) all 3 of us. Plus many more are entitled to be called "Doctor" as they are academically awarded degrees from the Graduate School they attended. The confusion is that each of these specialties, must be licensed to practice that specialty. I spent 6 years on a licensing board. established by state law and entitled to grant, amend or revoke licenses (within our specialty) MD's in some states are licensed to practice "Medicine and Surgery", DC's, practice as Chiropractic Physicians, other specialties are Dentists, Veterinarians. Counselors. Psychologists, etc. So, the key to the difference is NOT the term "Doctor" it is the academic preparation and the license one is authorized to practice under. Why? To protect, as much as possible, patients from unqualified practitioners. Each specialist is full competent and permitted to practice in accordance with the terms of their license. I hope this helps understand why different "Doctors" do different types of work. After all, they may be smart, but you don't want a Doctor of Astrophysics (also a PhD) doing brain surgery on you or your loved ones!
I started doing this because of the price and saving on gas to the store. I actually feel a lot better after about two weeks of doing this without ever seeing this video. This is very good news.
I am a pastry chef, and I learned in school the reason for this: certain starches (especially wheat, potatoes, and rice) go through a structural change called "retrogradation" when cooled, which makes them more rigid (rg also causes staling). Cooling changes the starch molecule's structure, making it "indigestible" or "resistant". This means our bodies cannot break them down as easily, thus they do not contribute to the glycemic spike nearly as much. I'm guessing the Maillard Effect (browning) that happens in the toaster also contributes to them becoming resistant, thus increasing the resistance quotient. Interestingly, retrogradation can be reversed in potatoes and wheat, but not in rice.
That's for this great info, I do this a lot bc I can't eat a loaf of bread in a week so I put it in freezer so it doesn't go mouldy but especially in hot conditions
Great ! Dr. Mandell made some claims, which are awesome, but didn't bother explaining WHY. It's great to give general info in the video, but for me personally quite annoying to not go that extra step and try to explain why. It makes the claim a lot more logical, even belivable also. And especially when explanation is so simple, it would take 20s of the video.Thank you.

I've been freezing my bread for years, just because it kept it fresher, longer. But I had NO IDEA that it actually lowered the glycemic index. Thanks for posting this information!!
You may stop identifying as diabetic then, just learn how to eat right (as a human being, not as a diabetic) - been there, done that and it continues to be the most empowering and gratifying experience of my life (helping yourself in a positive way)
@@alexanderkovalyov5211 Eating bad did not cause my diabetes. I'm a LADA, caused by heredity. I've almost never been overweight and my BMI is excellent. This little trick with bread allows me to eat some bread without spiking my glucose dramatically.
How long do you freeze the bread? Do you freeze it for a day then let it thaw and use as needed or thaw what you need at that time? In other words do you need to keep it frozen?
@@ConcernedCitizen627 I keep my low carb bread in the freezer all the time and only remove slices as I use them. I toast the bread or I microwave it for a few seconds to thaw it.
Being a home baker, I have found bread to be one of the great pleasures of life, important to a good meal. A long life has no value in and of itself. I do freeze bread after baking it but not all of it because fresh-baked bread is just a great pleasure. I'm old and been eating bread all my life, have few health problems. Genetics have a lot to do with health fates.
I always freeze my bread, to keep it fresh longer, and use as needed. I usually lightly toast it to deforst it. It's nice to know that doing so is nutritionally helpful as well. Thanks Dr. Mandell!
Same, I have been trying to lower my carbs so I don't eat as much bread as before, even if it's "keto friendly" bread, which I have in the freezer now, I might eat a couple slices a week, so obviously I need to preserve it, good to know that what little carbs these have might also be lowered even more, by the freezing and toasting.
I’ve been freezing and toasting my bread on & off for years purely for convenience reasons, it never goes off that way, so no waste. Never knew it had health benefits before.
But I believe the guy in the video forgot to mention the acrylamide which is formed when the bread is toasted, and some of the vitamins which are destroyed. Not sure which is healthier compared to higher, or lower glycemic index.
That's great news Doctor. Being a single person and avoiding eating bread, I keep a loaf in the freezer and have done that for a long time; now toasting it is a double bonus. Thanks
greenbluemonkey: Same here - have always frozen all bread first, then eaten it toasted. With our family, it was always a case of being 'thrifty'.....you buy your week's bread at the supermarket, and freeze it all to make it last until the next time you go shopping. Makes for health and money-saving. Thanks for letting me know l was doing it right, doc!!😊
I been freezing bread since the 1980s mainly because I am single and buy 2 to 3 loafs at a time so I don't have to go to the store all the time to buy a loaf of bread. This way the bread stays fresh rather than sit at room temperature and get dried out.. Watching this video I have a Better reason to freeze bread. Thanks 👍😊👏
Read the label. Real bread contains only flour and water & is made not with yeast, but with a Starter made only from flour and water. Numerous videos abound as to the method. Also sold at artisan bakeries.
I'm 55 and I remember my mom having a little dieting book that said that toasting the bread helps you lose weight. I always thought that it was the most ridiculous thing but I learned something new today!
@@bobboscarato1313 yes, moms r always right. But I did not take some of her observations seriously since they were not backed with necessary scientific research. Now I realize what she said was correct
I've been diagnosed with diabetes in my late 60's. I freeze my Mello brown seeded loaf, I always toasted straight from freezer and has helped me tremendously. Only read this tonight. Thanks Dr Mandel for confirming. 👍👏
@@mjremy2605 Don't listen to idiots with fad theories, especially if you are diabetic or gluten intolerant! But workouts yes. Any kind of exercise is always beneficial for everyone, again, especially for diabetics.
Oh my gosh I've been freezing and toasting bread and tortillas for years. This is some of the best nutritional news I've heard in a long time. Thank you!
I've been doing the same only because I'm a single man who doesn't eat enough bread to go through a loaf before it goes bad so I freeze it and when I want toast with my eggs and toast a slice or two. I had no idea it was the healthier way to go. Have a Great day Dolly.
I have been doing the same with the last few slices of my bread and I always toast it to defrost it. When the date is off I freeze it before it goes green. Now I'm going to freeze the lot as soon as I get it
Living in rural Ireland & quite a long drive to the nearest village, I freeze my brown seed loaves - when removed from freezer, they are as fresh as the day they were baked. So this is very good news to me, thanks, Doc❣️
@@anneknight3875 I was doing this all along anyway. The exact same for me, I don't eat (sprouted Ezekiel and whole wheat) bread fast enough so I freeze and toast it.
@@eylab1541 I would be cooking an throwing it away. Brown rice can't be cooked in different ways only steamed. We don't eat steam rice. Why would you say that ? You don't have any idea of how I cook rice some many ways and adding some vinegar dose Not change the flavor of any of my recipes. Brown rice would definitely Not work.
I always freeze and refrigerate my breads, cakes, pastries and other baked goods. Especially during warmer months and whenever I have excessive amounts. I do this in order to prevent it from molding. But it’s nice to know that it’s making these foods a little more healthier too.
I have been freezing assorted breads since I learned from my Great-Grandma, years ago. It is great to have a loaf or two on back up. Thank you for the breakdown. Stay healthy.
Beware! As I say above. Since white bread sets the glycemic benchmark at 100, reducing it to 69 is not as good as we'd hoped. I'm a diabetic who loves bread the most. Damn!
I've been freezing my bread for years because I don't eat bread everyday. I only eat it when its toasted with breakfast or on a sandwich. Didn't know about these health benefits but I'm glad I've been doing the right thing. Thanks for pointing this out to me.
@@gerrimcgrath6878 that's it. I take two slices out at a time and put the rest back in the freezer. I use the double wrapped bread like Arnold or Petridge farm. I don't know if that helps but it lasts for a good while without tasting freezer burnt.
That's great news....we have been storing our bread in the deep freezer section of the house refrigerator just to keep them "good" for a longer period of time..never knew what a really "good" job we have been doing.. thanks a lot doctor for this video ...
Same lol. Although sadly sprouted wheat/rye/whatever bread is a scam here, you can add any amount of sprouted flour and the rest normal flour and sell it as sprouted. That's why I buy 100% whole wheat since there is a actual law that requires you to actually have it be whole wheat.
DR.MANDELL, YOU ARE A SAINT AMONG MEN! Thank You, for CARING to HELP US w/out any concern for the "almighty" dollar, just, FOR OUR WELL-BEING! I Watch Every Video you Make. Thank you for the brevity as well. We have learned so much from your generous knowledge & heart! God Bless You & Yours!
I couldn’t figure out why I eat bread A LOT, and I’m still skinny, whereas everyone else in my family who avoids bread like the plague, has always had weight problems. I’ve always frozen and toasted my bread. Every time, all the time. Now it’s starting to make sense 😃 Of course I WALK a lot.
I actually found this out through trial and error…found that by freezing and toasting that my stomach felt so much better. …thought it was my weird digestion system…so cool to find out it’s a fact and not my weird feeling ! So brilliant, thank you so much for this video and information!. ❤️
Sometimes we do the right thing purely by chance! As a senior living alone, I always freeze the bread to keep it fresh. And since I heard, way back in the 70's, that toasted bread is healthier, and happen to prefer the crispness of toast, I always toast the frozen bread. Happy to hear the good news, thank you!
My mother has been freezing bread for years for the same reason and now I do the same. I almost never have white bread, always whole wheat and other multigrain breads. They taste better.
OMG! We’ve been freezing our bread like forever, reason being, it’s as fresh as when you bought it when it’s defrosted. Then we toast it. I have been sharing this idea with friends but no one seems to like the idea of frozen bread! With your video and a doctor’s standpoint, I hope it catches on. Thank you for this, Doc! FYI, we also freeze pizza and toast it in a pan, low heat. It turns out crispy at the bottom, and soft and gooey on top. I hope your followers try it, too!
Agreed on reheating pizza in a frying pan. I’m always careful because it’s very easy to burn the bottom while trying to get the top ingredients warm/hot. So it helps me to zap it in the micro first to get hot all the way through, then a quick spin on the frying pan drives off moisture from the crust for the nice crunch. Good luck all and cheers. !
Thank you Dr Mandel I would always put my bread in the freezer because I would buy extra trying to save money and now you're telling me that it's a great idea for my health thank you again
@Judy same, freeze to reduce waste. Now l have 2 reasons. However, l will be looking at who provided & who paid for the studies as history shows how health experts are paid to say whatever. 💚 this channel so much. We must be aware of what we eat as Bill Gates is trying to control the food #RefuseBillGatesFactorySlop SEC is finally looking into why GATES motives. #BillGatesBioTerrorist
Very edifying, Doc! I live in a small town w/ one store. Can't buy any good breads, fruits or Vegetables. I'm 73 and in good health but I no longer labor under the magical delusion of immortality. My fake hawian bread just went into the freezer! I met a very active 103yo who told me the secret of longevity was, " EAT VERY LITTLE!"
What a happy coincidence: I’ve been baking my own bread for years, slicing the just-baked loaves, and freezing the slices in ziplock bags just to keep the bread fresh. I did not know that this lowered the glycemic index.
When I was growing up we lived in the Country and my mother made batches of white bread, mostly in the winter time. She always put our loaves of bread wrapped up in the freezer for the duration of the winter. When she served it - it was so fresh like the day she made it. Now, thanks to your video - I know it was a healthy way to eat it as well. I am going to start freezing our bread. Thank you Dr. Mandell. ツ
Thanks for informing those of us who know eating (white) bread isn't all that healthy - but still do, for various reasons. Those who are more accomplished don't eat any bread of course, but Dr Mandell don't look down on people, but wants to help everyone.
I make my own bread with preferably a mix of different kinds of flours. Every now and then I make a white loaf. ALL my bread goes in the freezer since I am alone and I eat maybe 3 or 4 HALF slices a week. I never knew freezing bread is good, but now I am feeling quite happy that I’ve been doing this for years! Thank you Dr Mandell!
I'm glad my husband has been freezing our bread ever since I met him, we did not know about this but we really appreciate the news and it's great thank you Dr. Mandell GOD bless you. ❤️❤️❤️
We've been freezing our bread forever too & I always toast mine because it just tastes better to me, and I like the texture more too. I was unaware that freezing makes it that much better for you since I'm a diabetic this is great news to me thanks DOC!👍
My mother never knew this all those years ago when she'd freeze loaves of bread. Groening up 35 miles from town, I learned to make shopping trips count and how to store food away. This is brilliant
Quick note: My mother and grandmother have been freezing bread for years before using. I didn't know until now that not only does it keep it fresh, but toasting it was still frozen was healthier still for a person on a restricted-glucose diet. I just thought it tasted better! Also, glad to hear some of my favorite breads are >/= whole wheat. Thank you. Kind Regards.

I am single, so the only way I've kept my bread fresh for the past 13 years is by freezing it. This is great information. I always put mine on the iron grill to toast it., so it must be more than 31% reduction! Thank you.
@@vanhuvanhuvese2738 Ummm. . . Maybe more than a month? The longer it's in the freezer more ice will build up. What i do is take the bread out of the bag and scrape ice off the bread and empty the bag, if you don't and just let it thaw you will have soggy bread. Hope this makes sense.
To reduce waste I regularly freeze portions of bread. I'm delighted to hear how much healthier it is and I usually defrost it by toasting it. Brilliant 😃
Oh yeah, doc! I've been doing that for a long time, freezing bread to keep it out of the mold and toasting it to make it eatable This is so much a natural process.
I love making my own bread from scratch. As I learn how to make it, I start to look into healthier breads. That said we don't eat that much that quick so I stick it in the freezer. Thanks for explaining this to me. 🤩
Your presentation, as with all of your presentations is absolutely pleasant, Dr. Mandell! I absolutely respect all of your work even more when you post the journal(s). Thank you for all you do for our embetterment. Bless you, Dr Mandell and all of your family.
When I was a young mother, I always froze bread, because it kept longer, and was fresh tasting when thawed and/or toasted. I also used pieces of the frozen bread for my babies to teeth on, because I didn’t trust the safety of the teething rings with cool gel in them. I had tried the teething biscuits, which my babies loved, but they made huge messes. They loved the frozen bread; they could chew on them, numbing and working the soreness out of their gums; and they didn’t make a big mess!!!
thanks doc , Ive been doing this with bread , rice , pasta and potatoes for years. I live alone and cook and freeze . Many pasta dishes 9lasagne , risotto , just plain rice for other dishes , ravioli and even home made Pizza. I am IB , so my tolerate to gluten changes a bit but I find freezing gives a bit of a head start.freezing also enhances flavours of Italian , Indian , Asian dishes ect. Loves your videos Dr Mandell , you are a true humanitarian!
I learned from my DAD since I grew up as a child in the 1960s to freeze bread to make it last longer, nothing in our house was wasted because my DAD was a chronic reader on saving and using everything to its utmost capacity. Little did we all know it was also more healthy to freeze bread. Thank you for the info, DR. Mandell.
Being alone now I just keep the bread ithe freezer as i don't use it up fast enough to prevent mold spoilage otherwise...used to be i would bake in large batches for sale. Now I buy it...rn
This is fantastic news. I always thought toasting my bread will reduce the calories, but now I know freezing then toasting is even better. Way to go doc.
Hi Dr Mandel I've known people to say that white bread is not good to eat which type of bread is the best white wheat whole grain could you should add some light on that please or does it matter
@@joebrooks3824 … I actually did a search on the internet after I inquired and there are lots of sources regarding this phenomena … I’m surprised I had never come across this information before as it isn’t all that new … but it’s a game changer for me! … especially in the possibility of cook ahead meal preparation …
Thank you for explaining something I noticed myself years ago.....You have also explained why a lady I knew 40 years ago could only eat cold food which had been cooked and refrigerated! You are brilliant.
Excellent information which should exponentially be shared. I only obtain groceries once fortnightly so the bread goes straight into the freezer and is only used toasted as part of breakfast food ... glad to know this is worthwhile contribution to health - thank you Doc for info !!
As with many of your viewers, we routinely freeze white bread soon after purchase because we don't eat it very quickly and then toast it after bringing it out of the freezer. Didn't realize we were helping ourselves metabolically by doing this, so that's a plus! Thanks for yet another informative video!
I have always been freezing my bread to keep it fresh for longer. Then toast with butter in a frying pan . It taste good but never knew that it could lower the glycemic index. Thank you Dr. Mandel.
I have often wondered about freezing bread and now I know . Thank you Dr. Mandell I watch you everyday and practice your advice. Also tell others about you!!! ❤
Thank you for this valuable information. I been freezing my sprouted breads, sourdough and pumpernickel the last 15 yrs to make them last longer. Didn't know this is also healthier!
This is so awesome to hear as I’ve been doing this for a while now anyway, however it was primarily as a way to keep my bread fresher for longer so to hear I’ve been actually helping my body is great news. Thanks Doc! 🙏🏼
jaja! I've been freezing and toasting my home-made bread (white and brown) since FOREVER! I didn't know all this, but it makes me happy to know I've been eating a little healthier unknowingly. Great video!
That is fascinating. I get sick from normal bread to the point where I wondered whether I was sensitive to gluten, but when I fry the bread in olive oil with garlic, it gives me more energy than any other food and I don't get sick. And I always keep the bread I use for that in the freezer. I always thought it had to do something with olive oil or the garlic, but this gives a completely new perspective.
@@akuma4u There is a video out that says to place in refrigerator for at least 12 hrs and they become resistant starches as well. So I have started to cook my rice, pasta and potatoes and refrigerate. Next day we eat it. I find that I feel different as it does not spike my insulin levels as if I eat freshly cooked starches the same day.
@@akuma4u yes just refrigerate. You can warm up in micro, oven whatever... It doesn't revert. It remains a resistant starch (low glycemic starch.) I freeze my rice sometimes if it is too much and just thaw and reheat.
This is fascinating. I alway freeze bread as I can’t eat it quick enough to keep from going stale. After freezing I prefer to toast as it is never quit like a fresh unfrozen slice to me. Now I understand why I never seem to have spike after eating my home made sandwiches as opposed to a sandwich shop treat.
This is so great! My A1C has been creeping up, 5.8. I could just live off bread & I really miss it! I'm a widow, living alone & freezing makes even more sense now, saves the bread & slows down my eating of it.
Amazing information Dr. Mandel! I always freeze my whole wheat bread, and bagels to preserve it to not spoil or get moldy. Most of the time, I toast it after thawing for my avocado toast sandwiches! Never new the other benefits of freezing bread.

Fascinating points! We usually freeze our bread as it is because we don't consume so much that it turns dry before we can finish it otherwise. Good to know that it is actually healthier too!
Hey❤️ I may not know you personally however I care about you deeply because I know how much you mean to Jesus Christ The King of ALL CREATION . I want to tell you that Jesus Christ loves you so much, he died for our sins so that whoever believes in him wouldn’t have to perish in hell but instead have eternal life in heaven. You need to understand that HEAVEN and HELL are 1000% REAL they aren’t imaginary , and hell is a horrible place I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. God doesn’t want you to end up there he wants you in heaven and so he is giving you a chance to accept the sacrifice of his son Jesus Christ and be saved. Day by Day the world is falling apart because we are literally living in the last days of Earth there is no doubt or debate about it, Jesus Christ is coming faster then you think to bring judgement to the world and to destroy it. This really is URGENT, it’s NOT A JOKE ,Tomorrow isn’t promised to anyone, you can be alive one minute and gone the next, please take this opportunity to be on the side of Mercy confess your sins and wicked ways to Jesus , sincerely REPENT/turn away from them, ask for his forgiveness, and be baptized at a real bible believing church- ask him to enter your heart and to be your Lord and Savior before it is too late , truly believe in him and he WILL do it because it is his promise. It’s important that you seek the righteous and Holy path of the Most high God so that you may inherit eternal life and be spared of Hell fire. You can begin a new life in Christ and have a genuine relationship with him, please repent. Jesus changed my life and he will change yours too🥰, He is coming NOW! not SOON- when you least expect it!, therefore repent and make sure you are prepared. May the Lord be with you eternally💕🙏🏾
This is fascinating! I’ve always enjoyed my toast from frozen bread as it actually improves the taste and texture. Now I know it’s also better for me too! 🍞
We regularly freeze and then toast our bread (most of the time, sometimes make sandwiches without toasting). We've always done it for convenience so thanks for letting us know it's healthier. A little secret I learned years ago is when you buy it take the time to put a fresh clean paper towel on the top of the bread and one on the bottom the reseal the bag. You will find your bread survives freezing much better with no negative effects & also once it's out of the freezer keep the paper towels in place, it will stay fresh longer. Gad ypou posted this video!
I think it's sad that so many people stopped eating bread. Moderation is the key. I've been freezing my bread for many years. I buy different kinds of bread for different uses. I love toast and do enjoy sandwiches too. I grew up on bread and would never eliminate it from my life. I understand some people do have health issues and have to avoid it but most people can have some just as people have been eating bread for centuries. It's a lot healthier than eating many foods people eat today. Cheaper too.
It is good to know that a Doctor inform us what are the harmful food we are shoving in our mouth & has bad advantages, Thank you Dr. Mandell for informing us because i grew up with bread & my wife had told me this before but i ignore her & from now on i will stay away from white bread since i bake it too
Thank you Dr. Mandel you just answered a question I asked, when you talked about putting the spaghetti 🍝 in the refrigerator. I know now I can freeze the spaghetti 🍝 for a few hours before I eat it. This is great news.❤

WOW, why would I not freeze or freeze and toast packaged sliced breads? Genius! I might not be able to always resist tearing off a hunk of bakery bread as soon as I bring it in but now maybe I can apply the same principles to the remainder of those gorgeous loaves as well! Thank you, Dr. Mandell!
Wow, I do freeze my bread and take out and toast what I am going to use and leave the rest in the freezer. I don't eat bread daily though. My uncle told me this a long time ago and he said toasted bread is easier on the stomach, he was the supervisor over nutrition at the hospital he worked in, he is now is 92 years old and in good health. He still drives and does gardening.

I am a pastry chef, and I learned in school the reason for this: certain starches (especially wheat, potatoes, and rice) go through a structural change called "retrogradation" when cooled, which makes them more rigid (rg also causes staling). Cooling changes the starch molecule's structure, making it "indigestible" or "resistant". This means our bodies cannot break them down as easily, thus they do not contribute to the glycemic spike nearly as much. I'm guessing the Maillard Effect (browning) that happens in the toaster also contributes to them becoming resistant, thus increasing the resistance quotient. Interestingly, retrogradation can be reversed in potatoes and wheat, but not in rice.
That's for this great info, I do this a lot bc I can't eat a loaf of bread in a week so I put it in freezer so it doesn't go mouldy but especially in hot conditions
Very interesting. How can you reverse the retrogradation of potatoes and wheat? Inquiring minds an all..
Great ! Dr. Mandell made some claims, which are awesome, but didn't bother explaining WHY. It's great to give general info in the video, but for me personally quite annoying to not go that extra step and try to explain why. It makes the claim a lot more logical, even belivable also. And especially when explanation is so simple, it would take 20s of the video.Thank you.

I've been freezing my bread for years, just because it kept it fresher, longer. But I had NO IDEA that it actually lowered the glycemic index. Thanks for posting this information!!
Dumb question but does it stay lower on the glycemic index after it's warmed back up?
Same here.

wow,Dr. Mandel,thanks so much for the vital inform. what about if the bread is over its date of expiry? can we still keep on freezing it?
@@km3470 . Thanks and true.....so what's the answer? 🤔😂
I'm a diabetic and have tested this several times. It really works!
Thanks for sharing your experience.
You may stop identifying as diabetic then, just learn how to eat right (as a human being, not as a diabetic) - been there, done that and it continues to be the most empowering and gratifying experience of my life (helping yourself in a positive way)
@@alexanderkovalyov5211 Eating bad did not cause my diabetes. I'm a LADA, caused by heredity. I've almost never been overweight and my BMI is excellent. This little trick with bread allows me to eat some bread without spiking my glucose dramatically.
How long do you freeze the bread? Do you freeze it for a day then let it thaw and use as needed or thaw what you need at that time? In other words do you need to keep it frozen?
@@ConcernedCitizen627 I keep my low carb bread in the freezer all the time and only remove slices as I use them. I toast the bread or I microwave it for a few seconds to thaw it.
Being a home baker, I have found bread to be one of the great pleasures of life, important to a good meal. A long life has no value in and of itself. I do freeze bread after baking it but not all of it because fresh-baked bread is just a great pleasure. I'm old and been eating bread all my life, have few health problems. Genetics have a lot to do with health fates.
I always freeze my bread, to keep it fresh longer, and use as needed. I usually lightly toast it to deforst it. It's nice to know that doing so is nutritionally helpful as well. Thanks Dr. Mandell!
I use microwave to defrost it, it makes the bread tender as if it was just out of the oven.
We do the same thing.
Same, I have been trying to lower my carbs so I don't eat as much bread as before, even if it's "keto friendly" bread, which I have in the freezer now, I might eat a couple slices a week, so obviously I need to preserve it, good to know that what little carbs these have might also be lowered even more, by the freezing and toasting.
@@En_theo You need to be careful with the microwave - five seconds too long and it turns into mush!
@@JohnJones-qy5ko
Np there, I just use the same time for the same amount of bread each time :)
I have been doing this for years because I live alone 😊 Now I know it's better for you. Thank you 🤗
I’ve been freezing and toasting my bread on & off for years purely for convenience reasons, it never goes off that way, so no waste. Never knew it had health benefits before.
But I believe the guy in the video forgot to mention the acrylamide which is formed when the bread is toasted, and some of the vitamins which are destroyed. Not sure which is healthier compared to higher, or lower glycemic index.
Me too
And me. Never thought it makes me still thin even eat quite a lot portions each time for many years. 😊
That's great news Doctor. Being a single person and avoiding eating bread, I keep a loaf in the freezer and have done that for a long time; now toasting it is a double bonus. Thanks
Finally hearing something I do all the time, is actually the healthiest thing to do.
Me too! 🤗
greenbluemonkey: Same here - have always frozen all bread first, then eaten it toasted. With our family, it was always a case of being 'thrifty'.....you buy your week's bread at the supermarket, and freeze it all to make it last until the next time you go shopping. Makes for health and money-saving. Thanks for letting me know l was doing it right, doc!!😊
Yes. I bake my own bread rolls, freeze them, then nuke for 30 seconds to thaw. They come out just like fresh baked.
@@ralphm6901. Any microwaved food is very unhealthy. Regular toasting is better.
I been freezing bread since the 1980s mainly because I am single and buy 2 to 3 loafs at a time so I don't have to go to the store all the time to buy a loaf of bread. This way the bread stays fresh rather than sit at room temperature and get dried out.. Watching this video I have a Better reason to freeze bread. Thanks 👍😊👏
Read the label. Real bread contains only flour and water & is made not with yeast, but with a Starter made only from flour and water. Numerous videos abound as to the method. Also sold at artisan bakeries.

I've been doing the same only because I'm a single man who doesn't eat enough bread to go through a loaf before it goes bad so I freeze it and when I want toast with my eggs and toast a slice or two. I had no idea it was the healthier way to go. Have a Great day Dolly.
I have been doing the same with the last few slices of my bread and I always toast it to defrost it. When the date is off I freeze it before it goes green. Now I'm going to freeze the lot as soon as I get it

As a Korean, our main is not bread but rice. Rice is same like bread :) To drop glucose it is best to serve after reheating frozen cooked rice 😊.

I always freeze and refrigerate my breads, cakes, pastries and other baked goods. Especially during warmer months and whenever I have excessive amounts.
I do this in order to prevent it from molding. But it’s nice to know that it’s making these foods a little more healthier too.
I have been freezing assorted breads since I learned from my Great-Grandma, years ago. It is great to have a loaf or two on back up. Thank you for the breakdown. Stay healthy.
I have been avoiding bread for the past one year and life has lost its lustre but now your video is game changer, can’t thank you enough.
Beware! As I say above. Since white bread sets the glycemic benchmark at 100, reducing it to 69 is not as good as we'd hoped.

Beware of the gluten issue too which is more than likely not sufficiently balanced out by the resistant starch.

Same lol. Although sadly sprouted wheat/rye/whatever bread is a scam here, you can add any amount of sprouted flour and the rest normal flour and sell it as sprouted. That's why I buy 100% whole wheat since there is a actual law that requires you to actually have it be whole wheat.

I was just thinking about giving up bread all together, but now I don’t have too. Thank you Dr. Mandal
Exactly my plight! Super excited with this news.
Much respect to the Doc, but I think people should test themselves to find the impact on themselves.
OMG! We’ve been freezing our bread like forever, reason being, it’s as fresh as when you bought it when it’s defrosted. Then we toast it. I have been sharing this idea with friends but no one seems to like the idea of frozen bread! With your video and a doctor’s standpoint, I hope it catches on. Thank you for this, Doc! FYI, we also freeze pizza and toast it in a pan, low heat. It turns out crispy at the bottom, and soft and gooey on top. I hope your followers try it, too!
Pizza! Great idea!
I been doing that too.. so that's great
What a good idea - I’m going to try the pizza trick.
Leftover Pizza is the best reheated in a pan!!!
Agreed on reheating pizza in a frying pan. I’m always careful because it’s very easy to burn the bottom while trying to get the top ingredients warm/hot. So it helps me to zap it in the micro first to get hot all the way through, then a quick spin on the frying pan drives off moisture from the crust for the nice crunch. Good luck all and cheers. !

With what I have learned after changing doctors you are hitting the nail on the head.
When I was growing up we lived in the Country and my mother made batches of white bread, mostly in the winter time. She always put our loaves of bread wrapped up in the freezer for the duration of the winter. When she served it - it was so fresh like the day she made it. Now, thanks to your video - I know it was a healthy way to eat it as well. I am going to start freezing our bread. Thank you Dr. Mandell. ツ
Thanks for informing those of us who know eating (white) bread isn't all that healthy - but still do, for various reasons. Those who are more accomplished don't eat any bread of course, but Dr Mandell don't look down on people, but wants to help everyone.
I make my own bread with preferably a mix of different kinds of flours. Every now and then I make a white loaf.
ALL my bread goes in the freezer since I am alone and I eat maybe 3 or 4 HALF slices a week. I never knew freezing bread is good, but now I am feeling quite happy that I’ve been doing this for years! Thank you Dr Mandell!
I'm glad my husband has been freezing our bread ever since I met him, we did not know about this but we really appreciate the news and it's great thank you Dr. Mandell GOD bless you. ❤️❤️❤️

Quick note: My mother and grandmother have been freezing bread for years before using. I didn't know until now that not only does it keep it fresh, but toasting it was still frozen was healthier still for a person on a restricted-glucose diet. I just thought it tasted better!

When I was a young mother, I always froze bread, because it kept longer, and was fresh tasting when thawed and/or toasted. I also used pieces of the frozen bread for my babies to teeth on, because I didn’t trust the safety of the teething rings with cool gel in them. I had tried the teething biscuits, which my babies loved, but they made huge messes. They loved the frozen bread; they could chew on them, numbing and working the soreness out of their gums; and they didn’t make a big mess!!!

That is fascinating. I get sick from normal bread to the point where I wondered whether I was sensitive to gluten, but when I fry the bread in olive oil with garlic, it gives me more energy than any other food and I don't get sick. And I always keep the bread I use for that in the freezer.
I always thought it had to do something with olive oil or the garlic, but this gives a completely new perspective.
What happens when u eat rice, pasta, potatoes ?

So I have started to cook my rice, pasta and potatoes and refrigerate. Next day we eat it.

@@healthismywealth9668 u refrigerate but dont freeze. So do u warm it in microwave before eating?
@@akuma4u yes just refrigerate. You can warm up in micro, oven whatever... It doesn't revert. It remains a resistant starch (low glycemic starch.) I freeze my rice sometimes if it is too much and just thaw and reheat.
This is fascinating. I alway freeze bread as I can’t eat it quick enough to keep from going stale. After freezing I prefer to toast as it is never quit like a fresh unfrozen slice to me. Now I understand why I never seem to have spike after eating my home made sandwiches as opposed to a sandwich shop treat.
Wow! I've been freezing and directly toasting it on high! Phew! Thanks!

@@christinebeames2311 What I put on the avocado toast is; 1st: spread smashed up avocado on toast, 2nd: add small chunks of cut up tomatoes on top of that, 3rd: sprinkle everything bagel seasoning on it, 4th: drizzle some balsamic glaze on top, then eat!
@@19dd57chv thanks sounds good , i haven t heard of bagel seasoning but I’ll find some ,the balsamic I have , thank you , isn’t he just the best doctor , i had a really stiff painfull upper arm , couldn’t fasten my bra at the back ,he advised , in the shower to rub down on muscles with soapy hard sided object , repeatedly I used a shower bottle , it cured it 50% in one go and it cleared up over the week , my doctor said I was stuck with it , encapsulated muscles she said , thank goodness for you tube xx
I have been freezing our Bread for a long time. Didn't know that this was such a good thing. Everytime I see your Videos I learn more each time. You are AMAZING thank you ❤
Great video . Bread lasts a long ,long time in the freezer and when thawed, you cant tell the difference. But this is an extra benefit. Thank you Doc.
Fascinating points! We usually freeze our bread as it is because we don't consume so much that it turns dry before we can finish it otherwise. Good to know that it is actually healthier too!
Hey❤️ I may not know you personally however I care about you deeply because I know how much you mean to Jesus Christ The King of ALL CREATION . I want to tell you that Jesus Christ loves you so much, he died for our sins so that whoever believes in him wouldn’t have to perish in hell but instead have eternal life in heaven. You need to understand that HEAVEN and HELL are 1000% REAL they aren’t imaginary , and hell is a horrible place I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. God doesn’t want you to end up there he wants you in heaven and so he is giving you a chance to accept the sacrifice of his son Jesus Christ and be saved. Day by Day the world is falling apart because we are literally living in the last days of Earth there is no doubt or debate about it, Jesus Christ is coming faster then you think to bring judgement to the world and to destroy it. This really is URGENT, it’s NOT A JOKE ,Tomorrow isn’t promised to anyone, you can be alive one minute and gone the next, please take this opportunity to be on the side of Mercy confess your sins and wicked ways to Jesus , sincerely REPENT/turn away from them, ask for his forgiveness, and be baptized at a real bible believing church- ask him to enter your heart and to be your Lord and Savior before it is too late , truly believe in him and he WILL do it because it is his promise. It’s important that you seek the righteous and Holy path of the Most high God so that you may inherit eternal life and be spared of Hell fire. You can begin a new life in Christ and have a genuine relationship with him, please repent. Jesus changed my life and he will change yours too🥰, He is coming NOW! not SOON- when you least expect it!, therefore repent and make sure you are prepared. May the Lord be with you eternally💕🙏🏾
Im diabetic i always freeze my bread
My family throws away lots of bread because they think it’s not right to freeze it. Now I can forward this video to them.
This is fascinating! I’ve always enjoyed my toast from frozen bread as it actually improves the taste and texture. Now I know it’s also better for me too! 🍞
We regularly freeze and then toast our bread (most of the time, sometimes make sandwiches without toasting). We've always done it for convenience so thanks for letting us know it's healthier. A little secret I learned years ago is when you buy it take the time to put a fresh clean paper towel on the top of the bread and one on the bottom the reseal the bag. You will find your bread survives freezing much better with no negative effects & also once it's out of the freezer keep the paper towels in place, it will stay fresh longer. Gad ypou posted this video!
Thank you Doc! This is so very helpful! Glad to hear there is a way to make our breads healthier for us.
I think it's sad that so many people stopped eating bread. Moderation is the key. I've been freezing my bread for many years. I buy different kinds of bread for different uses. I love toast and do enjoy sandwiches too. I grew up on bread and would never eliminate it from my life. I understand some people do have health issues and have to avoid it but most people can have some just as people have been eating bread for centuries. It's a lot healthier than eating many foods people eat today. Cheaper too.
I agree, The Bible speaks about bread several times!
had to stop eating the heavy wheat stuff, white bread easier to digest, freezing makes it taste better too

Many thanks Doctor. I always freeze my bread and toast it. I'm glad that I have been doing the right thing for ages 😊😚🤗
It is good to know that a Doctor inform us what are the harmful food we are shoving in our mouth & has bad advantages, Thank you Dr. Mandell for informing us because i grew up with bread & my wife had told me this before but i ignore her & from now on i will stay away from white bread since i bake it too
Thank you Dr. Mandel you just answered a question I asked, when you talked about putting the spaghetti 🍝 in the refrigerator. I know now I can freeze the spaghetti 🍝 for a few hours before I eat it. This is great news.❤
That's nice for you to do this video for the world to know. I have a lot of southern in my family so my grandmother and other's grew up doing that, 💗🕊
Loved this information. As a cancer survivor I try not to eat bread at all but I just may at times now freezing and toasting a healthier bread.
Sorry to learn that. Hope you are doing well. You are a survivor 👍❤️
I also went through cancer and am battling again. We are survivors. Now will eat a little more bread as well. Organic bread only for me.

This is the healthiest news I've heard all year. Thanks Doc
Your videos are very evidence based which makes them worth listening to. Thank you.

I have been freezing bread as , I live alone and not able to consume it fast. Now this is an added bonus. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you! I'm wheat sensitive and gluten free but I want bread sometimes!!! Now on occasion I know how to do so!! I thank you not only for this but for everything, everyday that you post that's so motivational not only to me but all you reach. Peace and Blessings 🙏
WOW, why would I not freeze or freeze and toast packaged sliced breads? Genius! I might not be able to always resist tearing off a hunk of bakery bread as soon as I bring it in but now maybe I can apply the same principles to the remainder of those gorgeous loaves as well! Thank you, Dr. Mandell!
