WEBVTT - TNC Review: Protein Breads

0:00:00.720 --> 0:00:03.880
<v Speaker 1>Are you a carb or more specifically, bread lover. Have

0:00:04.000 --> 0:00:07.000
<v Speaker 1>you tried one of the new protein braced, lower carb

0:00:07.120 --> 0:00:11.680
<v Speaker 1>loafs in supermarkets? And more importantly, are they actually healthy? Today?

0:00:11.720 --> 0:00:14.440
<v Speaker 1>On the Nutrition Couch product review, we take a closer

0:00:14.480 --> 0:00:16.960
<v Speaker 1>look at two of the popular protein breads you can

0:00:16.960 --> 0:00:19.799
<v Speaker 1>find at supermarkets and see if they really are a

0:00:19.840 --> 0:00:20.440
<v Speaker 1>better choice.

0:00:20.520 --> 0:00:23.680
<v Speaker 2>Nutrition lead Hi, I'm Susi Burrow and I'm LeAnn Wood,

0:00:23.720 --> 0:00:24.560
<v Speaker 2>and we bring you the.

0:00:24.560 --> 0:00:27.640
<v Speaker 1>Nutrition Couch, a bi weekly chat on everything you can

0:00:27.720 --> 0:00:29.200
<v Speaker 1>find in the supermarket.

0:00:29.800 --> 0:00:30.040
<v Speaker 2>Now.

0:00:30.240 --> 0:00:34.239
<v Speaker 1>Leanne bread is controversial. Indeed, whenever I put any kind

0:00:34.280 --> 0:00:36.519
<v Speaker 1>of post up on my socials about bread, we get

0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:39.879
<v Speaker 1>a lot of feedback, and from our Nutrition Couch listeners,

0:00:39.920 --> 0:00:42.120
<v Speaker 1>we've had a lot of questions about bread in the

0:00:42.200 --> 0:00:45.120
<v Speaker 1>nine months or so we've been recording, and I think

0:00:45.159 --> 0:00:47.680
<v Speaker 1>one of the biggest changes in supermarkets is that we've

0:00:47.720 --> 0:00:50.600
<v Speaker 1>seen more and more protein breads, and I find my

0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:53.920
<v Speaker 1>clients get quite confused because there's low carb, high protein,

0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:56.880
<v Speaker 1>then there's lower carb which may not be necessarily high protein.

0:00:57.240 --> 0:00:59.000
<v Speaker 1>So we thought it was a really good opportunity for

0:00:59.080 --> 0:01:02.480
<v Speaker 1>us to break down a couple of these brands, and

0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:05.679
<v Speaker 1>we've chosen there's a few different ones out there, and

0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:07.880
<v Speaker 1>the other feedback we get is people will say, why

0:01:07.880 --> 0:01:12.759
<v Speaker 1>didn't you choose this one? And for full transparency, none

0:01:12.800 --> 0:01:15.200
<v Speaker 1>of these segments are sponsored. Certainly, if we ever do

0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:18.080
<v Speaker 1>revert to a sponsored product segment, we will be very

0:01:18.080 --> 0:01:21.960
<v Speaker 1>transparent on that. So these come down to products that

0:01:22.040 --> 0:01:25.000
<v Speaker 1>Leanna and I are familiar with. There's a particular reason

0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:27.800
<v Speaker 1>we may want to discuss it, we may really like it,

0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:31.000
<v Speaker 1>or sometimes it's just what we have time to quickly

0:01:31.000 --> 0:01:35.199
<v Speaker 1>put together. It really is random. Now for full transparency, again,

0:01:35.360 --> 0:01:39.440
<v Speaker 1>I've chosen two for quite specific reasons. I've chosen the

0:01:39.440 --> 0:01:42.080
<v Speaker 1>Herman Brothers Lower cub loaf, which was one of the

0:01:42.120 --> 0:01:46.520
<v Speaker 1>first available in Audi Supermarket because they bake for Audi.

0:01:47.000 --> 0:01:49.440
<v Speaker 1>So I've chosen that because yes it's a specialty bread

0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:51.280
<v Speaker 1>and you can get it in coals, but it's also

0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:54.559
<v Speaker 1>the same nutritionals as the high protein low car breadth

0:01:54.560 --> 0:01:57.600
<v Speaker 1>that's available in Audi, so it's ticking both of those boxes.

0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:00.160
<v Speaker 1>And that was a really revolutionary company who brought one

0:02:00.200 --> 0:02:02.960
<v Speaker 1>of the first ones to market. And then I've chosen

0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:05.960
<v Speaker 1>also the Woolies Macro myself just because I quite like

0:02:06.040 --> 0:02:08.200
<v Speaker 1>the profile of it and they've got quite a wide range.

0:02:08.240 --> 0:02:11.640
<v Speaker 1>They've got English muffins and bread rolls as well. So

0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:14.520
<v Speaker 1>as I said, there's no personal reason we choose it

0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:16.720
<v Speaker 1>other than we might like it, be interested in it,

0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:18.399
<v Speaker 1>or it just comes up when we're doing a quick

0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:22.240
<v Speaker 1>search so that's the background to that, or it's available at.

0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:23.680
<v Speaker 2>The shops when we're searching for products.

0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:25.720
<v Speaker 1>We do try and really choose products that are readily

0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:27.880
<v Speaker 1>available for people too. And as I said, the reason

0:02:27.919 --> 0:02:30.000
<v Speaker 1>I like this Herman Brothers one is that is the

0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:32.640
<v Speaker 1>AUDI product too, So it's ticking both of those boxes

0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:35.520
<v Speaker 1>for people who like to shop at Audi as I

0:02:35.560 --> 0:02:40.680
<v Speaker 1>often do for some great savings. So this is an

0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:42.400
<v Speaker 1>interesting product because it was, i want to say, the

0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:45.919
<v Speaker 1>first lower car bread that was widely available. It's got

0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:49.120
<v Speaker 1>five health star rating in Audi. It retails for about

0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:51.520
<v Speaker 1>five dollars a loaf, and it's slightly more for the

0:02:51.560 --> 0:02:54.000
<v Speaker 1>bread version. I think it's six or seven in coals.

0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:59.280
<v Speaker 1>Nutritionally per two slices, and the slices of a protein

0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:03.160
<v Speaker 1>bread we want to the main difference nutritionally is that

0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:06.320
<v Speaker 1>to make a protein bread, it either needs to be

0:03:06.360 --> 0:03:11.080
<v Speaker 1>a very special flour to concentrate the protein or it

0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:14.919
<v Speaker 1>needs to have a very heavy seed and grain base.

0:03:15.040 --> 0:03:17.320
<v Speaker 1>So what that does is really significantly bump up the

0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:21.880
<v Speaker 1>protein and good fat content and it lowers the available carbohydrate.

0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:25.440
<v Speaker 1>So certainly in the case of this bread, it's slightly

0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:28.560
<v Speaker 1>different because they do it does use a soy protein

0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:31.960
<v Speaker 1>as well to increase the protein content. So and that's

0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:34.120
<v Speaker 1>why the slices, i should say, are much smaller, because

0:03:34.120 --> 0:03:36.840
<v Speaker 1>it's a denser slice, because you're not getting that traditional

0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:39.280
<v Speaker 1>wheat flour that makes bread soft and fluffy. So that's

0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:42.600
<v Speaker 1>the first difference. It's certainly not bread as we would

0:03:42.640 --> 0:03:44.840
<v Speaker 1>be as familiar with bread. It's much more like a

0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:51.160
<v Speaker 1>European heavy dense loaf. Perserve two small slices, almost channdred

0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:53.880
<v Speaker 1>and fifty calories twenty three point six grams of protein,

0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:57.160
<v Speaker 1>which is huge. Normally in a bread you'd get sort

0:03:57.200 --> 0:03:59.640
<v Speaker 1>of eight grams if it's a heavy grain bread and

0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:03.080
<v Speaker 1>souper market. It does have what would appear to be

0:04:03.120 --> 0:04:05.960
<v Speaker 1>reasonably high levels of fat twelve point eight grams purchase

0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:08.400
<v Speaker 1>slices compared to say half of that if you are

0:04:08.440 --> 0:04:11.200
<v Speaker 1>looking at a grain bread, or even lower. But most

0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:13.840
<v Speaker 1>importantly it's very low saturated fat. As you would expect

0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:16.720
<v Speaker 1>it one point seven grams or less than three percent

0:04:17.360 --> 0:04:21.640
<v Speaker 1>carbo hydrates only five grams compared to twenty thirty forty

0:04:21.680 --> 0:04:24.960
<v Speaker 1>to fifty grams in regular sour dough or larger slices,

0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:28.840
<v Speaker 1>or about twenty four for something like a bergen sugars.

0:04:28.880 --> 0:04:31.520
<v Speaker 1>The sugars, I wouldn't be overly worried. People often think

0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:33.719
<v Speaker 1>sugar is added to bread. It's not the case. It's

0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:37.440
<v Speaker 1>just secondary to the baseline flour load ten point seven

0:04:37.440 --> 0:04:40.160
<v Speaker 1>grams of dietary fiber, which is enormous. So again high

0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:42.640
<v Speaker 1>fiber bread you may get sort of four or five

0:04:42.760 --> 0:04:45.120
<v Speaker 1>if you're lucky. This is enormous because of that heavier

0:04:45.160 --> 0:04:48.600
<v Speaker 1>grain load. Sodium's not overly high for bread at three

0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:52.560
<v Speaker 1>fifty milligrams purchase slices. But the big difference in this

0:04:52.680 --> 0:04:54.560
<v Speaker 1>loaf compared to some of the other ones is I

0:04:54.640 --> 0:04:57.400
<v Speaker 1>said the formulation. So the first ingredients water, followed by

0:04:57.400 --> 0:05:01.480
<v Speaker 1>wheat protein, so protein loopine, protein, soy meal, soy grits.

0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:06.920
<v Speaker 1>So they're really using a special formulation of protein flowers

0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:11.400
<v Speaker 1>to achieve this loaf. So that's quite different. So my

0:05:11.560 --> 0:05:16.040
<v Speaker 1>general recommendation with protein breads is First of all, it

0:05:16.120 --> 0:05:17.760
<v Speaker 1>has a role and we'll talk about that in a secondly,

0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:20.719
<v Speaker 1>and because I'm interested in your perspective on them with clients,

0:05:21.720 --> 0:05:24.720
<v Speaker 1>but I will say to the client's the main difference

0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:26.560
<v Speaker 1>is that ingredient list. And if you're someone who's not

0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:29.520
<v Speaker 1>a massive soy fan, it's probably this isn't probably the

0:05:29.520 --> 0:05:33.599
<v Speaker 1>one for you because some medical conditions or preferences will

0:05:33.680 --> 0:05:36.760
<v Speaker 1>people will be preferring to avoid soy, and that is

0:05:36.839 --> 0:05:39.279
<v Speaker 1>the difference with this. But in terms of taste, it's

0:05:39.279 --> 0:05:42.480
<v Speaker 1>a great taste. It's very, very filling. My personal use

0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:45.760
<v Speaker 1>of it is as a way to get protein breakfast

0:05:45.800 --> 0:05:49.760
<v Speaker 1>time without using foods like eggs or smoked salmon or dairy.

0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:52.120
<v Speaker 1>So it's really handy for people who are looking for

0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:55.120
<v Speaker 1>a plant based diet or who are over eggs or

0:05:55.160 --> 0:05:57.400
<v Speaker 1>hot breakfast, so they really want to have toast for

0:05:57.440 --> 0:06:01.360
<v Speaker 1>breakfast with a bit of avocado or a bit of vegie.

0:06:01.920 --> 0:06:04.240
<v Speaker 1>But because I like carbs in the morning, I'll then

0:06:04.240 --> 0:06:05.560
<v Speaker 1>try and get them to add a little bit of carb,

0:06:05.600 --> 0:06:07.920
<v Speaker 1>which may be banana with peanut butter on the toast.

0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:10.800
<v Speaker 1>It's not low calorie, it can really be quite high

0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:13.200
<v Speaker 1>in calories and if you're then starting to have protein

0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:16.680
<v Speaker 1>toast with avocado or with banana and peanut butter, you're

0:06:16.680 --> 0:06:18.359
<v Speaker 1>looking at, you know, a four hundred even up to

0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:20.839
<v Speaker 1>five hundred calorie breakfast. So that's really important to be

0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:23.320
<v Speaker 1>aware of. It may be lowering carb, but it's certainly

0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:26.680
<v Speaker 1>not lowering calories, and it really depends on your personal

0:06:26.720 --> 0:06:29.760
<v Speaker 1>dietary goals, but it's a viable option. I do routinely

0:06:29.839 --> 0:06:32.479
<v Speaker 1>use them, and that's probably the main differentiating factor and

0:06:32.480 --> 0:06:36.000
<v Speaker 1>feedback I'll give clients is taste, because obviously they do

0:06:36.080 --> 0:06:40.600
<v Speaker 1>taste quite different between the brands availability where you're buying

0:06:40.640 --> 0:06:43.480
<v Speaker 1>it from. But also if you're someone with a preference

0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:46.560
<v Speaker 1>for Sawyer'd just be mindful that that is a baseline ingredient.

0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:47.960
<v Speaker 2>So tell me.

0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:50.200
<v Speaker 1>I've never asked Julia and about protein breads and what

0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:51.920
<v Speaker 1>you do with your clients.

0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:54.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I love them. I myself eat them regular and

0:06:54.360 --> 0:06:56.240
<v Speaker 2>I recommend them for my clients as well. So I'll

0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:59.920
<v Speaker 2>just clarify that it's the Hermand brought, not Herman Brother

0:07:00.720 --> 0:07:02.960
<v Speaker 2>and the Aldi one. If you're looking in it, I

0:07:02.960 --> 0:07:05.760
<v Speaker 2>think it's called the something like the ninety five percent

0:07:05.839 --> 0:07:08.400
<v Speaker 2>lower carb, higher protein Toast so it's slightly different label.

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:11.000
<v Speaker 2>We might wax some photos up on our Instagram accounts

0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:13.240
<v Speaker 2>so you guys can follow along there. And I actually

0:07:13.240 --> 0:07:15.400
<v Speaker 2>came across this bread years ago Ceasy. I found it

0:07:15.440 --> 0:07:19.280
<v Speaker 2>in my Ida, my local Ija sort of did specialty breads.

0:07:19.560 --> 0:07:21.480
<v Speaker 2>I hadn't seen it. I think it's only recently come

0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:23.720
<v Speaker 2>into Coals, but it's been around for quite a few years,

0:07:23.760 --> 0:07:25.320
<v Speaker 2>and I've been eating it for quite a few years.

0:07:25.520 --> 0:07:27.520
<v Speaker 2>And the way I see it is that a lot

0:07:27.560 --> 0:07:31.040
<v Speaker 2>of myself included and my clients like to put things

0:07:31.160 --> 0:07:34.360
<v Speaker 2>like jam or honey, like honey and banana on toast. Right,

0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:37.720
<v Speaker 2>So when you're adding honey, which is a carbohydrates of sugar, banana,

0:07:37.720 --> 0:07:40.360
<v Speaker 2>which is a carbohydrate for just to sugar, and bread,

0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:43.200
<v Speaker 2>which is a carbohydrate, you're adding two serves of carbs

0:07:43.240 --> 0:07:46.760
<v Speaker 2>onto more carbs. From a health and a weight loss perspective,

0:07:46.880 --> 0:07:49.720
<v Speaker 2>that's not the best option for the majority of people.

0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:52.080
<v Speaker 2>Let's put it that way. If you're somebody who you

0:07:52.120 --> 0:07:54.440
<v Speaker 2>know is a huge high level athlete, or you're in

0:07:54.520 --> 0:07:56.840
<v Speaker 2>eating disorder recovery or something like that, perhaps yeah, that

0:07:56.840 --> 0:07:58.640
<v Speaker 2>could be a great option for you. But for the

0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:01.200
<v Speaker 2>bulk of our listeners and the bulk of austrains. It's

0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:03.360
<v Speaker 2>not a great option to just keep adding carbon carbon

0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:05.600
<v Speaker 2>cap on carb It's not going to keep you full

0:08:05.600 --> 0:08:07.400
<v Speaker 2>for very long, and it just really doesn't have the

0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:09.680
<v Speaker 2>amount of protein and healthy fats that we want. So

0:08:09.720 --> 0:08:12.240
<v Speaker 2>this is a great option. But as you said, for me,

0:08:12.280 --> 0:08:15.120
<v Speaker 2>it's too low in carbohydrates. So I use this to

0:08:15.160 --> 0:08:17.840
<v Speaker 2>tick my protein and my fiber box. Ten point seven

0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:21.040
<v Speaker 2>grams of fiber in two slices is unreal It is amazing.

0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:23.160
<v Speaker 2>For some people who have a sensitive gut, it might

0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:26.200
<v Speaker 2>be too much. They might find themselves running to the bathroom.

0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:29.840
<v Speaker 2>But for the majority of healthy people it's a great load.

0:08:30.120 --> 0:08:32.319
<v Speaker 2>And because it's super low in carbohydrate, then you can

0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:35.000
<v Speaker 2>actually put your carbohydrate on the toast without any issues.

0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:37.599
<v Speaker 2>So adding something like jam and fruit on top of

0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:39.800
<v Speaker 2>this is an awesome option. So I love to do

0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:41.839
<v Speaker 2>something like this is a bit cheeky, but as a

0:08:41.880 --> 0:08:43.520
<v Speaker 2>bit of a treat, I might do some like nintella

0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:45.720
<v Speaker 2>and some slice fruit or something onto something like this

0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.400
<v Speaker 2>protein bread. But as you mentioned, it is because it's

0:08:48.400 --> 0:08:51.200
<v Speaker 2>heavily based on fats, it is quite you know, more

0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:53.800
<v Speaker 2>energy dense than you know two normal slices of bread.

0:08:53.840 --> 0:08:55.760
<v Speaker 2>So I think it's a great option. It's super filling.

0:08:56.200 --> 0:08:58.320
<v Speaker 2>Of course, it doesn't taste anything like white bread, but

0:08:58.360 --> 0:09:01.920
<v Speaker 2>it is it's feeling, it's and it's a great nutritional profile.

0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:04.839
<v Speaker 2>But it is lower in carbohydrates. So just having this

0:09:04.920 --> 0:09:07.160
<v Speaker 2>with say some nut butter on top isn't actually a

0:09:07.200 --> 0:09:10.160
<v Speaker 2>great post workout you know, snack or post workout meal,

0:09:10.320 --> 0:09:12.439
<v Speaker 2>because you're not getting that amount of carbohydrate in to

0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:15.040
<v Speaker 2>refuel your muscle. So I would definitely say if you're

0:09:15.120 --> 0:09:17.280
<v Speaker 2>if you're using this option as sort of a toaster

0:09:17.360 --> 0:09:20.360
<v Speaker 2>or breakfast option, I would definitely be putting carbohydrate on that.

0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:22.800
<v Speaker 2>So fruit is probably the easiest option, or a little

0:09:22.800 --> 0:09:24.720
<v Speaker 2>bit of jam or honey or something like that to

0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:27.640
<v Speaker 2>get in some beneficial carbohydrates at breakfast time. But I

0:09:27.760 --> 0:09:30.400
<v Speaker 2>routinely use these myself, SUSI, and also for my clients

0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:32.280
<v Speaker 2>because I think that they're I think they're great options,

0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:34.200
<v Speaker 2>but their price is probably a little something to be

0:09:34.240 --> 0:09:36.600
<v Speaker 2>aware of. It's probably two to three times that of

0:09:36.640 --> 0:09:39.640
<v Speaker 2>a normal you know, well these branded loaf of bread,

0:09:39.920 --> 0:09:41.520
<v Speaker 2>and there are a couple of allergens as well. I

0:09:41.520 --> 0:09:44.160
<v Speaker 2>think people need to be aware of mainly wheat, soy

0:09:44.320 --> 0:09:47.280
<v Speaker 2>lupin as well and also balley other allergens in this,

0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:50.400
<v Speaker 2>so unfortunately for as celiacs it's a no no. And

0:09:50.480 --> 0:09:53.480
<v Speaker 2>it's also got some trace may contain you know, milk,

0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:56.680
<v Speaker 2>sesame seeds and tree nuts as well, so it's process

0:09:56.720 --> 0:09:59.240
<v Speaker 2>in a factory that has other products containing those things.

0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:01.440
<v Speaker 2>If you have an alley gin and you're particularly sensitive,

0:10:01.720 --> 0:10:03.800
<v Speaker 2>you probably want to avoid something like this. But I

0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:06.920
<v Speaker 2>think it's overall a great product and really I do

0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:09.280
<v Speaker 2>really use it for a lot of my clients, you know,

0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:11.400
<v Speaker 2>in the right occasion, not every day, but when they

0:10:11.440 --> 0:10:13.080
<v Speaker 2>do wants them toast and they're really craving a bit

0:10:13.120 --> 0:10:14.880
<v Speaker 2>of honey or jam. I think this is a great option.

0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:17.160
<v Speaker 1>And I will say it originates. It's a German and

0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:21.200
<v Speaker 1>French group that bring it here to Australia. I'm just

0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:23.440
<v Speaker 1>checking if it's baked here or not. But hence the

0:10:23.679 --> 0:10:26.600
<v Speaker 1>I guess link to being a very dark, fibrous type

0:10:26.600 --> 0:10:30.679
<v Speaker 1>of loaf. And there's also crackers in the range. There's

0:10:30.840 --> 0:10:33.079
<v Speaker 1>raps I've seen, there's pasta, so.

0:10:33.040 --> 0:10:34.520
<v Speaker 2>It's a really it's granola as well.

0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:37.040
<v Speaker 1>It's a really interesting company, as I said, because I

0:10:37.040 --> 0:10:38.439
<v Speaker 1>will try and find out in the next couple of

0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:41.480
<v Speaker 1>minutes if it's baked here, but that's where it originates from.

0:10:41.520 --> 0:10:44.040
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, it's a great product. As I said, it's

0:10:44.080 --> 0:10:47.560
<v Speaker 1>really I think spurred Australian suppliers to make a different

0:10:47.679 --> 0:10:51.400
<v Speaker 1>range of lower carb high protein loaws, but I couldn't agree.

0:10:51.559 --> 0:10:55.600
<v Speaker 1>I use them as you do as an option, but

0:10:55.640 --> 0:10:57.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm also keen for people to have their carbohydrates for

0:10:58.000 --> 0:11:00.640
<v Speaker 1>fuel in the morning. I'm certainly not eating those and

0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:02.520
<v Speaker 1>using them in that space. I also use it as

0:11:02.520 --> 0:11:04.839
<v Speaker 1>a filling afternoon snack, like a slice of that with

0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:08.040
<v Speaker 1>some nutspread or avocado and tomato if people get home

0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:10.319
<v Speaker 1>hungry or maybe they're going to the gym, to give

0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:13.440
<v Speaker 1>them that real full factor. It is quite a dense

0:11:13.480 --> 0:11:16.480
<v Speaker 1>and has that ability to feel So yeah, I absolutely

0:11:16.559 --> 0:11:20.720
<v Speaker 1>use them and am really excited that they have been

0:11:20.800 --> 0:11:24.360
<v Speaker 1>around here and encouraged other Australian companies to make similar products.

0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:27.360
<v Speaker 1>Which leads me to the other product that I've chosen,

0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:32.600
<v Speaker 1>which is the Woolli's Macro brand, which is a small

0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:36.240
<v Speaker 1>green loaf that sometimes in the health food section at Willies,

0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:40.000
<v Speaker 1>sometimes in the main grocery. Admittedly, I would say it's not.

0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:44.479
<v Speaker 1>It's probably more in the metro as opposed to widespread

0:11:44.480 --> 0:11:47.360
<v Speaker 1>Willie shops, just because of the specialist product that it

0:11:47.440 --> 0:11:49.800
<v Speaker 1>is in. I live in the inner city of Sydney

0:11:49.840 --> 0:11:52.800
<v Speaker 1>and certainly the two three four loaves that come up

0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:55.440
<v Speaker 1>at the Woolies get sold out every day. I've certainly

0:11:55.480 --> 0:11:59.400
<v Speaker 1>seen demand and increase and probably that's led to them

0:11:59.400 --> 0:12:03.320
<v Speaker 1>to also so now be making the English muffins and

0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:05.400
<v Speaker 1>also the bread rolls I should say the Herman Brot,

0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:09.320
<v Speaker 1>not Herman Brothers Herban, but also have bread rolls available

0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:13.400
<v Speaker 1>in that Audi branding as well. And I like this

0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:17.640
<v Speaker 1>product land. I like the nutritionals of it because its

0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:21.760
<v Speaker 1>first ingredients water, then wheat, gluten, limbed seed, sunflower seeds,

0:12:21.760 --> 0:12:25.920
<v Speaker 1>so it's really giving us a beautiful polyunsaturated fat load

0:12:25.920 --> 0:12:28.280
<v Speaker 1>of those really good fats that we often will we

0:12:28.400 --> 0:12:31.120
<v Speaker 1>only really get from wheellyfish or in plant foods from

0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:34.480
<v Speaker 1>walnuts and limb seeds and sunflower and pepeds, so it's

0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:36.280
<v Speaker 1>one of those rare foods that is going to be

0:12:36.320 --> 0:12:38.920
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't list the poly unsaturated content, but I imagine

0:12:38.920 --> 0:12:40.800
<v Speaker 1>it would be quite high, which is why I lean

0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:45.920
<v Speaker 1>towards it. Similar In the nutritional amounts perserve, you're looking

0:12:45.960 --> 0:12:48.080
<v Speaker 1>at just over two hundred and fifty calories twenty one

0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:51.120
<v Speaker 1>grams of protein. Again, the fat's quite high, almost sixteen

0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:53.880
<v Speaker 1>grams perserve. We're getting a little bit more saturated fat

0:12:53.880 --> 0:12:56.960
<v Speaker 1>two point three because of that seed load. Carbohydrates even

0:12:57.000 --> 0:12:59.480
<v Speaker 1>lower at three point six grams, and funnily enough, Woolies

0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:02.560
<v Speaker 1>are not listed the dietary fiber content. I'm not sure why.

0:13:02.559 --> 0:13:04.440
<v Speaker 1>It seems rather odd that they wouldn't be doing that,

0:13:04.480 --> 0:13:07.000
<v Speaker 1>given it's a real health product sitting in that space.

0:13:08.400 --> 0:13:10.800
<v Speaker 1>So we got any feedback from Willies on why that fiber,

0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:12.480
<v Speaker 1>but it would be quite high. I would imagine it

0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:14.680
<v Speaker 1>would be sort of up around that eight grams per serve.

0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:18.520
<v Speaker 1>It's a really nice tasting product, you know. I guess

0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:22.000
<v Speaker 1>in food industry are really trying to support Australian brands

0:13:22.040 --> 0:13:24.760
<v Speaker 1>and small Australian brands where we can, but credit where

0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:28.440
<v Speaker 1>credit is due. Wilies. It's a good product. It's got

0:13:28.480 --> 0:13:31.480
<v Speaker 1>a really nice profile. If I read through the other ingredients,

0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:33.920
<v Speaker 1>So the seeds are high thirteen percent seed, thirteen percent

0:13:33.960 --> 0:13:36.000
<v Speaker 1>some flower seeds, which is incredibly that's more than a

0:13:36.080 --> 0:13:39.800
<v Speaker 1>quarter of The loaf is from a seeded base, bamboo fiber,

0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:42.080
<v Speaker 1>canola oil, so you a flower, vinegar, yeese, so these

0:13:42.080 --> 0:13:45.520
<v Speaker 1>are just minor ingredients to fill it out. So it's

0:13:45.600 --> 0:13:47.880
<v Speaker 1>a great tasting bread. It freezes really well. So we

0:13:47.920 --> 0:13:50.960
<v Speaker 1>should also say we don't generally use these breads to

0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:55.360
<v Speaker 1>make sandwiches. They I better toasted. But it's a great

0:13:55.360 --> 0:13:58.560
<v Speaker 1>tasting product that my clients always really enjoy. It retails

0:13:58.559 --> 0:14:01.240
<v Speaker 1>at about six dollars a loaf, I think from memory.

0:14:01.000 --> 0:14:01.760
<v Speaker 2>Four dollars fifty.

0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Actually I was tenty four to fifty. So I encourage

0:14:04.120 --> 0:14:06.000
<v Speaker 1>people to keep it in the freezer because it's a

0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:08.800
<v Speaker 1>great backup for that quick and easy breakfast if you've

0:14:08.800 --> 0:14:10.880
<v Speaker 1>only got some veggimite or as you describe, some jam

0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:14.199
<v Speaker 1>at home, and it freezes really well because of that

0:14:14.240 --> 0:14:16.559
<v Speaker 1>fat profile that will keep it really stable, Whereas you'll

0:14:16.559 --> 0:14:18.120
<v Speaker 1>find that if you leave it out for too long

0:14:18.120 --> 0:14:21.320
<v Speaker 1>that the good fats because of those seeds can turn.

0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:24.000
<v Speaker 1>Whereas freezing it's a really good way to preserve those

0:14:24.240 --> 0:14:26.000
<v Speaker 1>and be able to keep it and really make sure

0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:27.880
<v Speaker 1>you're not wasting it, which I think because we all find,

0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:30.240
<v Speaker 1>don't we with loaf bread, we're often throwing it around,

0:14:30.360 --> 0:14:31.440
<v Speaker 1>throwing it away a little bit.

0:14:31.960 --> 0:14:33.760
<v Speaker 2>And I really like to freeze it because I don't find,

0:14:33.760 --> 0:14:37.240
<v Speaker 2>Susie that these you know, I guess better quality or

0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:39.840
<v Speaker 2>better macro type loaves are good for sandwich loaves. I

0:14:39.880 --> 0:14:41.760
<v Speaker 2>just can't eat this type of bread because it's so

0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:44.480
<v Speaker 2>dense as a sandwich. Is not like the nice, light, fluffy,

0:14:44.800 --> 0:14:46.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, sandwich type bread that I like to eat

0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:48.960
<v Speaker 2>with my sandwich. Like, I can't eat these loaves unless

0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:51.280
<v Speaker 2>it's toasted. So I just freeze mine anyway, because I'm

0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:53.160
<v Speaker 2>going to toast it. So I do find that freezing

0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:56.000
<v Speaker 2>it is a better option because you know, defrosts quite

0:14:56.000 --> 0:14:58.480
<v Speaker 2>easily in the toaster. I've just looked up on wools

0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:00.880
<v Speaker 2>dot com and the fiber con t is eleven point

0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:03.280
<v Speaker 2>six grams, so it is actually incredibly high. And it

0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:06.360
<v Speaker 2>just because one of those ingredients is bamboo fiber. And

0:15:06.440 --> 0:15:09.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to say controversially, a Susi, I actually don't

0:15:09.360 --> 0:15:11.280
<v Speaker 2>like the taste of this one. I think it's because

0:15:11.280 --> 0:15:13.400
<v Speaker 2>of the bamboo fiber. It's something to do with the texture.

0:15:13.440 --> 0:15:14.880
<v Speaker 2>I just I've tried it a few times and I

0:15:14.920 --> 0:15:16.840
<v Speaker 2>can't get my head around it. So for me, I'm

0:15:16.920 --> 0:15:18.640
<v Speaker 2>much more of a fan of the Herman Brought one

0:15:18.680 --> 0:15:21.160
<v Speaker 2>from a taste and a texture perspective, but this is

0:15:21.200 --> 0:15:24.080
<v Speaker 2>all a really individualized sort of taste thing. You know,

0:15:24.120 --> 0:15:26.680
<v Speaker 2>one person will enjoy it and another person won't, so

0:15:26.920 --> 0:15:29.120
<v Speaker 2>really give it a well yourself, you know. From a

0:15:29.120 --> 0:15:31.600
<v Speaker 2>cost perspective, it's a little bit lower. It's four dollars fifty.

0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:35.360
<v Speaker 2>Will listed this as a price drop option, so hopefully

0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:36.880
<v Speaker 2>that's sort of a price that will stay a little

0:15:36.920 --> 0:15:39.400
<v Speaker 2>bit lower, so it's a little bit more affordable than

0:15:39.440 --> 0:15:42.600
<v Speaker 2>the hermane Brought one. But I don't know, SUSI I can't.

0:15:42.640 --> 0:15:44.240
<v Speaker 2>I think it's a texture thing. For me, just the

0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:47.680
<v Speaker 2>bamboo fiber. I'm not loving it as much as some

0:15:47.760 --> 0:15:50.280
<v Speaker 2>of the other I really do like a nice dense bread,

0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:53.040
<v Speaker 2>so for me it doesn't quite tick the taste sort

0:15:53.040 --> 0:15:55.600
<v Speaker 2>of box. But as you said, the ingredient list is

0:15:56.080 --> 0:15:59.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, is excellent really but it is very low

0:15:59.200 --> 0:16:02.840
<v Speaker 2>in carbohydrate and I think in terms of two slices,

0:16:02.880 --> 0:16:05.680
<v Speaker 2>two hundred and sixty five calories for two slices, So

0:16:05.800 --> 0:16:08.800
<v Speaker 2>definitely not a lower calorie sort of bread option, but

0:16:08.840 --> 0:16:11.880
<v Speaker 2>a really really strong nutritional profile for a product like

0:16:11.920 --> 0:16:14.440
<v Speaker 2>this and go wool is they really do have some great,

0:16:15.200 --> 0:16:18.360
<v Speaker 2>you know, sort of better options in their ranges for

0:16:18.640 --> 0:16:23.160
<v Speaker 2>people with specific health conditioners or specific I guess goals

0:16:23.240 --> 0:16:25.920
<v Speaker 2>in their life that some of their products really do tickboxes.

0:16:25.920 --> 0:16:28.400
<v Speaker 2>We've done their pizza base on the podcast as well,

0:16:28.600 --> 0:16:30.360
<v Speaker 2>very early on, and we really liked that one.

0:16:30.360 --> 0:16:32.520
<v Speaker 1>Didn't we We did, And that will also lead me

0:16:32.560 --> 0:16:34.720
<v Speaker 1>to two other points. So actually I just want to check.

0:16:34.760 --> 0:16:37.640
<v Speaker 1>So you prefer the Herman Brock taste wise.

0:16:37.520 --> 0:16:40.000
<v Speaker 2>I do. I think it's more of a texture thing

0:16:40.040 --> 0:16:41.640
<v Speaker 2>than a tastes thing for me. I don't think this

0:16:41.720 --> 0:16:44.360
<v Speaker 2>necessarily tastes bad. I just don't enjoy the texture as

0:16:44.400 --> 0:16:46.720
<v Speaker 2>much as what I enjoyed the texture of the Herman

0:16:46.760 --> 0:16:48.560
<v Speaker 2>Brot one. That's just my own personal preference.

0:16:49.360 --> 0:16:51.680
<v Speaker 1>So a couple of things the Herman Brock company do

0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:54.280
<v Speaker 1>bake here in Australia. I've had a couple of feedback

0:16:54.320 --> 0:16:56.320
<v Speaker 1>on my social media that they're frozen breads.

0:16:56.320 --> 0:16:56.520
<v Speaker 2>Now.

0:16:56.800 --> 0:16:59.600
<v Speaker 1>Supermarkets may be freezing these breads again to prolong this

0:16:59.640 --> 0:17:01.880
<v Speaker 1>shelf life a little bit because of these high seeded

0:17:01.880 --> 0:17:04.800
<v Speaker 1>amounts of times. But no, Herman Brot do not import

0:17:04.800 --> 0:17:06.520
<v Speaker 1>the bread It is baked here. I've just checked that,

0:17:07.040 --> 0:17:09.040
<v Speaker 1>and the other point I'll make we're not covering in

0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:12.440
<v Speaker 1>this today, but in I have noticed in my Inner

0:17:12.440 --> 0:17:15.840
<v Speaker 1>City Coals that there has been a low carb, high

0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:19.520
<v Speaker 1>protein white loaf. Now I was so shocked by this

0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:22.919
<v Speaker 1>nutritional profile that I actually contacted the Coals nutritionists to

0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:25.840
<v Speaker 1>ask her if it was legit, and they have indeed

0:17:25.880 --> 0:17:29.080
<v Speaker 1>formulated a flour, but I don't believe it's widely available,

0:17:29.080 --> 0:17:31.200
<v Speaker 1>which is one of the reasons we didn't cover it today.

0:17:31.640 --> 0:17:33.679
<v Speaker 1>So I believe we will start to see even some

0:17:33.840 --> 0:17:39.439
<v Speaker 1>white loaves that are higher in protein, but nutritionally as dietitians,

0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:42.399
<v Speaker 1>we will generally, unless people cannot tolerate seeds and grains,

0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:45.840
<v Speaker 1>we will generally prefer those both because of the nutritional

0:17:46.240 --> 0:17:49.879
<v Speaker 1>offerings they have. And I'm always going to go back

0:17:49.880 --> 0:17:51.680
<v Speaker 1>to a grain or seeded bread over a white loafe.

0:17:51.680 --> 0:17:53.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't care how much fiber they pump back in it.

0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:55.800
<v Speaker 1>But watch this space because at some point we will

0:17:55.800 --> 0:17:58.720
<v Speaker 1>come back and cover those growing range of sort of

0:17:58.720 --> 0:18:02.080
<v Speaker 1>healthier white bread alternative once I'm sort of certain that

0:18:02.119 --> 0:18:04.919
<v Speaker 1>those breads are widespread and not just being made for

0:18:04.960 --> 0:18:07.800
<v Speaker 1>the city bakeries or on trial at coals at the moment.

0:18:08.119 --> 0:18:10.080
<v Speaker 2>And to your point with in terms of the freezing,

0:18:10.080 --> 0:18:12.840
<v Speaker 2>the Hermon range is definitely frozen. Every single time over

0:18:12.840 --> 0:18:14.719
<v Speaker 2>the last probably four or five years that I've been

0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:17.800
<v Speaker 2>buying that range, it's always been frozen. So and as

0:18:17.800 --> 0:18:19.520
<v Speaker 2>I said, I actually before that way because I think

0:18:19.520 --> 0:18:21.840
<v Speaker 2>it is too dense as a fresh sandwich bread. I

0:18:21.960 --> 0:18:24.919
<v Speaker 2>just wouldn't enjoy it as a sandwich bread option. I

0:18:25.000 --> 0:18:28.400
<v Speaker 2>very much will get a fresh, beautiful grain loaf from

0:18:28.440 --> 0:18:30.120
<v Speaker 2>my bakery if I wanted to have a nice, fresh

0:18:30.160 --> 0:18:33.280
<v Speaker 2>sandwich awesome rolls, I wouldn't use that brand as a

0:18:33.359 --> 0:18:35.199
<v Speaker 2>I just think it's too dense for a sandwich loap.

0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:38.520
<v Speaker 2>It is really nice as a toasted bread toast option

0:18:38.640 --> 0:18:42.040
<v Speaker 2>for breakfast and freezing. I have no concerns about freezing bread.

0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:45.040
<v Speaker 2>So when someone had commented that, oh, it's frozen, I

0:18:45.200 --> 0:18:47.239
<v Speaker 2>was like, I wouldn't bother me, because to me, that

0:18:47.359 --> 0:18:49.959
<v Speaker 2>ensures the freshness is being retained a little bit like

0:18:50.320 --> 0:18:52.720
<v Speaker 2>frozen veggies, because as I said, as soon as you

0:18:52.760 --> 0:18:55.960
<v Speaker 2>get that high quantity of good fat in there from

0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:59.200
<v Speaker 2>seeds in particular, they go rancid really quickly. So That's

0:18:59.200 --> 0:19:01.760
<v Speaker 2>why when you go to the baking section in supermarkets

0:19:02.160 --> 0:19:05.080
<v Speaker 2>and you buy like walnuts or pecans, they don't taste

0:19:05.119 --> 0:19:08.600
<v Speaker 2>as crunchy and fresh because those fats are so unstable.

0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:10.399
<v Speaker 2>They go a little bit rancid really quickly, and you

0:19:10.440 --> 0:19:14.520
<v Speaker 2>get that funny taste after taste. So the benefit for

0:19:14.600 --> 0:19:16.520
<v Speaker 2>me with these products is that if they've been frozen,

0:19:16.520 --> 0:19:18.199
<v Speaker 2>they've been snap frozen, so they're going to be is

0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:20.719
<v Speaker 2>just good of quality when you consume them. So a

0:19:20.760 --> 0:19:23.119
<v Speaker 2>bread that was frozen would be no concern to me,

0:19:23.160 --> 0:19:25.679
<v Speaker 2>and I'm with you. I only suggest these breads be

0:19:25.760 --> 0:19:26.560
<v Speaker 2>used as toast.

0:19:27.080 --> 0:19:29.359
<v Speaker 1>I am like you. I would prefer a softer loaf

0:19:29.359 --> 0:19:32.280
<v Speaker 1>if I was actually making bread with it. Some people

0:19:32.440 --> 0:19:34.399
<v Speaker 1>of my clients don't mind it as bread, but on

0:19:34.440 --> 0:19:35.840
<v Speaker 1>the whole we do tend to use it as like

0:19:35.880 --> 0:19:38.119
<v Speaker 1>a toasted sandwich or a toast in the morning, and

0:19:38.160 --> 0:19:39.800
<v Speaker 1>hence it works well in the freezer, so you get

0:19:40.119 --> 0:19:41.439
<v Speaker 1>through the whole loaf and you don't have to keep

0:19:41.480 --> 0:19:44.000
<v Speaker 1>throwing out the fresh bread. All right, we look for

0:19:44.080 --> 0:19:46.040
<v Speaker 1>to your feedback. I think this will be of interest

0:19:46.119 --> 0:19:48.320
<v Speaker 1>to many people today. But that brings us to the

0:19:48.440 --> 0:19:51.000
<v Speaker 1>end of the nutrition Couch product review for another week.
