What is SWG?

[GerrysGirl]

I haven’t been able to find this in any of the ebooks. What does it stand for? It’s part of several description on foods.

[jane]

I don’t know either, and i would like to know too!!

[jane]

OK, I just read: SWG is sprouted wheat grains.

[Winn]

I have. Idea why they don’t indicate what this is somewhere … It would prevent confusion, etc

[Mary Ellen]

I not a dummy but I’m pretty lost on some of these suggested foods.. How about you.. Give me hints as to where I can find them.. Safeway sure doesn’t have any in my area..grin..grinn

Most stores now carry SWG products ib the freezer section…perhaps even safeway : )

I found some SWG bread at the Atlantic Superstore. It was in the health food section with the frozen products. I also noticed a glueton free pizza crust that I may try.

Health-oriented chains like Whole Foods and Trader Joes (and if you’re in California, New Leaf Market) tend to have good selections of SWG products. The breads are even on a regular shelf.

Trim Down Club has done a good job putting an asterisk beside the initials SWG, and then you scroll down to where they tell you SWG stands for Sprouted Whole Grains. Here in Sarasota we just had a Trader Joes grocery story open up on Tamiami Trail (this was the original road from Tampa to Miami before the new I-75 was built).
They are more expensive than Publix, but carry a wide range of SWG products. At age 76 I am willing to pay a few pennies more for nutritous healthy food.

I too noted that SWG was used before the Sprouted Whole Grain was explained. Usually the acronym will follow it the first time. Sprouted Whole Grain (SWG) and then just used SWG.

I am in UK (Lincoln). Are there any bread products that I can buy locally or branded alternatives? Thanks Ossie
