Listen, the best answer is to listen to your body. If you’re intrigued and just have to try the wheat bread, go for a tiny nibble. See if your stomach flips you off or gives you a high-five. Usually, the flip-off is very predictable.
For now, be boring. Be gentle. Reach for the squishy, soft, unassuming white bread. It’s not a celebration of health, but it’s a tool for survival. Once you’re back to normal, by all means, go back to your hearty, seedy, fiber-packed wheat loaf. But give your gut a few days of vacation mode first.
Your stomach will thank you. And you’ll have a cool little story about the time white bread saved the day. Now, go grab a glass of water and a slice of the simple stuff. You’ve got this.
