"The next item in the morning I want to talk to you about and show you is our breads. Read the labels on baked goods you’ll be surprised many of them do have saturated fats and even a carrot cake or carrot muffins that you think you’re getting something healthy cause it has carrot, check the labels for saturated fats, for hydrant anted oils or partially hydrant anted oils or the trans and fats. So this is my favorite choose it’s a sprouted grain bread ezecko sesame and with sprouted breads you’re getting the most nutrient that’s inside the grain because it’s sprouted so it’s less processed and lets just take a look at this label here and see what we’re getting ourselves into right, zero saturated fats love it, zero trans fat, zero cholesterol, 80 milligrams of sodium that’s okay and 3 grams of fiber excellent, 4 grams of protein. So let’s just take a look here let me show you what the sprouted bread looks like…oh my eggs cooking pretty nicely, you can cover this to little it’ll help it cook faster but you know I like things cause I have a little 4 year old, I like meals that are quick and easy cause we’re all busy but I also want you to just spend the extra time in the market being a label detective and checking those labels out and spend some time thinking about what you want to eat. Think and prepare before you’re really starving cause when we’re really starving that’s when we’ll just pop anything in our mouth, so see look that looks like a very nice piece of bread for toast. You know if you can’t find spouted bread where you live just look for whole grain, this again can read the label here it’s a whole grain, the first ingredient is 100% whole wheat not enriched flour or enriched bread but whole wheat and again this is great it’s got zero grams of saturated fat, zero trans fat, zero cholesterol, sodium for those of you who are checking your sodium this is 125 milligrams of sodium, 4 grams of protein, 5 grams of fiber very good we like this product, 16 grams of carbohydrate. So just be mindful when you’re making your bread and you’re making your toast, so there you have it here’s a breakfast that I just demonstrated to you, you take the time to think and read the labels, you’re getting good food with no saturated fat."
