\"bread\"<\/p>\n

Apparently Icelanders aren’t eating enough whole-grain bread, which is hard to believe, because that’s the first thing I’d be covering in smj\u00f6r \ud83d\ude42 Regardless, the Directorate of Health would like to remind you that it is in fact good for your health, and please try to eat more than the half-slice that Icelanders eat per day on average \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

“It is desirable that people eat more whole-grain bread and other whole-grain products to support improved health,” says news from the Directorate of Health<\/a>. Icelanders eat only half a slice of bread per day on average.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

“Research indicates that consumption of coarse grains reduce the risk of heart and blood-vessel illness, and type-2 diabetes,” says the Directorate. “In addition it has long been known that fiber-rich products have a good influence on digestion, and research indicates that consumption of fiber-rich food from the plant world reduces the probability of colon cancer.”<\/em><\/p>\n

I guess the most interesting thing I found in the article was the phrase draga \u00far l\u00edkunum<\/strong>, which I finally figured out was similar to reduce the risk\/likelihood\/probability<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n
