Brown bread is made with flour that retains some of the wheat grain’s outer layers. These figures describe it after toasting. Per 100g, it provides 54g of carbohydrate, 6.4g of fibre, 10g of protein and 1.3g of salt. Carbohydrate is its main source of energy.
Fibre supports normal bowel function, while protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake. Toasting removes water, so nutrients become more concentrated by weight compared with untoasted bread. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.

About these figures
Values are per 100g of the food as described (11 samples, 8 brands. Calculated using 22% weight loss). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.
