For many years carbohydrates such as white bread and pasta have been seen as the enemy for anyone trying to keep their waistline slim. But doctors are concerned with the increasing trend that's seeing people cut whole food groups out of their diets, especially healthier options like wholegrains. As revealed by the Daily Mail on Tuesday, experts warn that shunning an entire food group is unsustainable, can damage one's relationship with food and could be doing more harm than good. Australian dietician and nutritionist Susie Burrell agrees with the research that points to white bread and heavily processed carbohydrates as contributors for weight gain, but says this is no reason to cut all carbs out completely.

'Bread has been a dietary staple for thousands of years, and the more advanced technology has become, so too the more processed our bread, resulting in the soft, almost sticky common white loaf many families base a number of meals around each day,' she told Daily Mail Australia. 'Bread, white or otherwise is a rich source of B group vitamins which are crucial for energy production, and hence bread remains a major contributor to energy and the running of energy systems in the body. 'Less processed varieties of bread also offer a range of other nutrients including dietary fibre, Vitamin E, zinc; iron and long chain unsaturated fats, which is generally why loaves of grain based bread contain more fat than white bread,' she added. The nutritionist said there is a distinct difference in the nutritional value of white and grain bread, there's also a disparity in the glycaemic index (GI). The best: Tip Top 9 Grain (right) and Helga's Lower Carb (right) came highly recommended from Susie Burrell . 'As white, wholemeal and flat breads have all had the grains ground down in their processing, they have a relatively high GI compared to wholegrain bread, meaning that they release glucose into the bloodstream much more quickly than wholegrain breads,' Ms Burrell said. 'Over time, this means that choosing processed breads as a dietary staple will be resulting in regular glucose peaks and troughs, and subsequent insulin release. 'High insulin levels over time are related to weight gain and increased risk of developing Type 2 diabetes,' she added. This comes as experts in the UK have warned of the long-term effects of completely cutting out one food group from your daily diet. In light of this the diet guru has compiled a list of the five most nutritious, and five worst breads Australian consumers can buy. BarleyMax wraps also rated highly on the Australian nutritionist's list, coming in third in her top five . Baker's Delight Cape Seed loaf (left) was given the nod by the nutritionist, as was Burgen's Soy Lin (right) 'One of the most commonly asked questions in relation to bread choice is whether ‘wholemeal’ is a good choice. While whole meal bread does contain more dietary fibre than standard white bread, it is still a high GI choice,' Ms Burrell revealed. Swap it: Australian nutritionist Susie Burrell says while too many processed carbohydrates can be bad, people shouldn't generally be eliminating them entirely but instead looking at healthier options . She said Turkish breads can be one of the worst as people tend to eat it in higher quantities and fill the holes with butter or margarine. 'The average adult will need just 2-4 slices of bread each day and be mindful of the increasing sizes,' the nutritionist warned. 'Some large, thick slices of bread can contain up to double the amount of carbohydrates and are really not necessary for the majority of us who would ultimately like to drop a few extra kilograms. 'As many Australians eat bread on a daily basis, it is imperative that our choice of bread is gold standard, and this means grain bread,' she added. Ms Burrell also warned parents to be cautious of the bread they're serving their children, as they will learn what they know. 'If you continue to buy white bread, they will continue to eat it, and it is not the best choice nutritionally for their health long term,' she said. While it's widely accepted that processed carbohydrates, such as white bread and pasta, can contribute to weight gain and its associated diseases, doctors are increasingly concerned about a trend for excluding all carbs - even healthier wholegrains, where the grain is left intact and not processed. People who do this could suffer from a lack of energy, mood swings, poor concentration and gut problems - and may even put on weight. Those who shun carbs say they are bad for us because they convert into sugar in the body, and can cause weight gain because we store excess sugar as fat. Lawson white bread was named as the worst nutritionally, due to its high calorie and sodium counts . Lebanese bread (left) and Turkish bread (right) were also listed unfavourably by Ms Burrell . But while many experts agree that overweight people often do eat too many carbs, they also say that these foods have been unfairly demonised. 'Carbs are seen by many as the "devil" food, but any dietitian will tell you they are an essential part of a healthy, balanced diet - the general guidance is they should make up a third of our intake,' says Helen Bond, spokesperson for the British Dietetic Association. 'They are a ready source of fuel for the body. Cutting them out can cause headaches, tiredness and lethargy. 'You won't be able to perform so well during exercise and concentration is likely to be affected, too, because carbohydrates also fuel the brain.' She adds that where people go wrong is in treating all carbs as the same. Burgen Soya & Linseed Bread . Calories: 111kcal . Carbs: 12g . Fibre:  4.1g . Sodium: 0.13g .
