The verdict

Whole-wheat bread keeps the bran and germ, so it has more fibre, protein, and micronutrients and a gentler effect on blood sugar. White bread is softer and milder but largely stripped of fibre. Look for '100% whole grain' as the first ingredient — 'wheat flour' or 'multigrain' alone isn't the same thing.
