Mission Carb Balance Tortillas

Lately, I've been eating these Mission Carb Balance whole wheat tortillas for breakfast.

They pack a whopping 21g of fiber per tortilla (in the large size), and if you consider that 25g of fiber is what the average person should consume each day, these tortillas pretty much keep your daily fiber intake regular.

They say that breakfast is the more important meal of the day for weight loss purposes. So I eat one of these tortillas for breakfast, plain with nothing on it.

As far as taste is concerned, they're not bad. They actually have a heavier wheat flavor than other whole wheat tortilla brands, and if you're a beer drinker like me, you tend to enjoy the flavor of grains, such as wheat. I don't put anything on these tortillas, just eat them plain.

Fiber is also a key component towards weight loss because it can't be digested. That is, the body still burns calories trying to break down fiber. So the more fiber you consume, the more your body is working, and that keeps your metabolism up.


These whole wheat tortillas are also pretty convenient for commuting to work in your car. Just roll one up and eat it while you drive. You can't do that with a bowl of oatmeal or cereal, and yet you're getting more fiber and whole wheat out of it.

You can pretty much find Mission Carb Balance Tortillas at most grocery stores. Make sure they are "whole wheat" because Mission sells a white flour variety in the Carb Balance line as well.
