I'm a girl of 16 and I want to ask a question. I never eat any bread at all. I don't follow diets like everyone thinks, I just don't like pasta. This includes all kinds of bread, muffins, patties, croissants, pizza, donuts, sandwiches, etc. I only like pancakes, but I don't know if they belong to this group. Everyone around me eats a lot of bread and they quarrel with me every day and insult me that I don't eat. I am told that if I do not eat dough I will get sick and have eating disorders, problems, etc. Is it true?

The finished pasta offered by the Bulgarian (and not only) market contains mainly leavening agents, colorants, GMO crops (from which the flour is made), vegetable oils of dubious origin and in general, a person can prolong his life relatively much if he does not touch similar "foods". Most likely the attitude of the people around you is based on ignorance and simplicity (they are not at all aware of what is actually contained in this type of "food", where it comes from, how it is processed, what effect it has on the body) or envy (they are ready to they teach you that pizzas and donuts are the most useful thing in the world, just to cram in, lest you happen to be healthier and tighter than them). Eat lots of vegetables, at least three times a week tender roast meat or fish, whole milk products and fruits in moderation. Drink clean water or water in which the fruit has been soaked. If you get hungry, reach for fresh carrots, apple pieces, 2-3 dried apricots or some nuts. I guarantee you that with such a way of eating you will be number one - both healthy and very beautiful! And let the greasy pies, donuts and bread, which he considers a superfood, be stuffed. After a year, obesity, palpitations, stomach problems, etc. will have their say.
Nothing will happen to you. It also depends on what else you eat.
Haha, they envy you.
Nonsense! Nobly I envy you, where I could be like you!
No! There is nothing useful in pasta. Maybe fiber, but there are more of them in legumes. I have been told since I was a child that it is not normal to hate sugar and everything sweet. Sugar was food for the brain ... blah blah. In my opinion, they even envy us that our body has some intolerance to such harmful foods, and most people have to make an effort not to eat them.
Nonsense ... Eat pancakes and some black bread from time to time and you'll be okay. You won't get sick, but rather if you tread on such things, you could.
Of course not. You subconsciously follow the principles of a low-carb diet. It excludes fast sugars, including mostly what you describe. The sugar contained in pasta is harmful, pumps blood with insulin and accumulates in fat. You don't feel it now, but after a year or two, they will sing your song as they start gaining weight and gaining cellulite. Read about low carb diets and fast sugars and the harmful effects of sugar on the body. In fact, we take sugar from many places - fruit, whole grains, dairy, but this is healthy. Harmful is the dough, potatoes, carrots and jam. Excluding the latter, nothing will happen to you, calm down. Even your skin will clear (if you have pimples) because sugar causes inflammatory processes in the body. I repeat, there is a difference between fast and slow carbs. Excluding these foods, you will still take from them, but from healthy sources and in their healthy form. Once again I am convinced that Bulgarians have a very low health culture. PS Pancakes because they contain white flour are also in the group of fast carbohydrates. You can make them with wholemeal flour - they become the same. There are recipes for pancakes and bananas on the Internet.
Well done, you've excluded a few harmful things from your menu that others can't - that's why they tell you complete nonsense to tie yourself to them and get down to their level. Carbohydrates are a large group of macronutrients and you can't do without them. There are slow (wholemeal flour, fruit, brown rice) and fast (sugar, white flour, white rice). The latter are harmful to the body - when you eat them, your liver fails, the pancreas turns on with insulin and everything turns into fat, fat - into obesity, cellulite, diabetes, heart attack, etc. Rather, you should greet rather than talk such nonsense - or they are vicious and envious, or they are just very illiterate and incompetent on the subject of healthy eating.
Much depends on what else you eat and when you do not eat pasta. Whether you will get sick from not eating bread is possible. Whether a 16-year-old's body suffers from not taking in slowly degrading carbohydrates, plant proteins and other vitamins and minerals, yes. Bread is useful but in the right amount about 150 to 300 g per day and again depending on the lifestyle, if you have intense movement all day you will take 500 g of bread, if you lie on the couch all day and 150 g of bread are a lot. It is important to eat as many calories as you need according to age, physical activity and healthy logic. If, for example, you have decided to live without bread, you must make an account of where you will get the necessary calories, vitamins and minerals so that your 16-year-old body can nourish the cells of your internal organs, because no matter how big you think your ovaries are developing, kidneys and other organs, that's also why they need a favorable environment for their development and the elements and energy they need for growth. However, it is also important to calculate the amount and volume of food you eat. Of course today you can decide to eat only healthy broccoli, but to take the necessary 1800 calories for a 16g girl you have to eat over 5kg of broccoli, broccoli separately does not contain vitamin B9 or vitamin D, also if you take such an amount of broccoli you will be poisoned by the big amount of useful and not so useful substances and amino acids in them. Not to mention that the presence of 4, 450 liters of water in 5 kg of broccoli will harass your 16-year-old kidneys. The bottom line is that one has to think before deciding to do anything special when it comes to one's health,
Number 9, you're posting some true information here and there and pretending to be very competent. He made bread a super food, but he is not. Everyone except you has well advised the author not to eat dough. Carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals are not only obtained from bread.
