I’m having a difficult time finding SWG products; is there something on the ingredients list that I should be looking for? I went to my local New Foods and could only find one loaf of bread that was Sprouted Whole Grains.
If you can’t find SWG, then look for 100% whole grain products – the “100%” is a very important indicator.
SWG stands for sprouted whole grains. You can read more about it here http://www.trimdownclub.com/what-is-swg-bread/
I was wondering about “Open Nature Nuts & Seeds” bread. I get it from Safeway; Nutrition facts: Per slice, Calories 110 (from fat);Total Fat 2.5g(4%); Saturated Fat 0g; Trans Fat 0g; Cholesterol 0mg; Sodium 150 mg (6%); Total Carbohydrate 17g (6%), Dietary Fiber 3g (12%); Sugar 2g & Protien 4g.Ingredients: Whole Wheat Flour, water, wheat flour, whole grain oats, whole grain bulgur, sugar, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, yeast, hazelnuts, walnuts, sunflower seeds, wheat gluten. Contains 2% or less of each of the following: Sunflower oil, seasalt, calcuim sulfate (source of calcium) corn meal, vinegar, cultured whey (milk), soy lecithin. May Contain Hazelnuts, Walnuts, Sesame seeds. Sounds pretty healthy to me, but what do you think?
I am having difficulty as well trying to find someone who bakes swg bread here in Motueka New Zealand. 🙁

If that doesn’t work for you, then just use 100% whole grain bread.I am a very new member. I live in England in the West Midlands
Have had no success at all finding SWG anything!!! The best I could find is wholemeal 100% bread.
I feel for some of the people who live over seas and don’t have health food stores. When it comes to bread. Alot of your breads don’t have the junk that our breads in the states have. plus you could make a lot of it yourself. Just use better flours and such. America is the land of cutting corners. Which is why americans like myself are over weight.
I am a new member and I am very excited to get started. I am wondering if Killer Dave breads qualify as a SWG bread? I live in Anchorage Alaska and have enjoyed the above noted bread here and in Oregon. I am wondering if this bread will be something I can bring into my new way of eating?
Hi, Lori19. Dave’s Killer Bread has a sprouted wheat. Other than that, their breads are generally very high-quality.
I was talking to someone today who noted that wheats have fungus in them….what are your thoughts about fungus and whole grains? This was new news to me about the fungus…
