whole grain bread

I am about to re-embark on a low carb diet. I came across your site thru 'your lighter side of low carb on facebook. I want to eat healthier, and pull myself out of my sugar addiction, but it sure can be so difficult.

One question I have is about my children. I am not planning on having them low carb, they are quite thin already. I make bread for them from freshly ground whole wheat. (freshly ground as in I grind it myself right before making the bread) I saw you list flour as a bad food.

I agree that white flour, processed flour, etc, is unhealthy, but would you put freshly ground flour in the same vein? I understand that it cannot be a part of a weight loss phase for me, as an adult, but I am curious about its value for my children.

sorry if this is off topic.

Thank you.
