[@lizamwebb]

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.

[@beatles7238]

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

​@@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!

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

[@px4gaminghdr525]

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!👍

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
