Here is a great excerpt about what this bread is from authoritynutrition website
Awareness of the harmful effects of wheat has increased quite a bit in the past few years.
Given that wheat is a large part of most people’s diets, many are looking for healthy alternatives.
Several people have asked me about Ezekiel bread, which is different from most other types of bread.
What is Ezekiel Bread?
Ezekiel bread is different for several reasons.
Whereas most breads contain added sugar, Ezekiel bread contains none.
It is also made from organic, sprouted whole grains. The sprouting process changes the nutrient composition of the grains significantly.
In contrast to most commercial breads, which consist primarily of refined wheat or pulverized whole wheat, Ezekiel bread contains several different types of grains and legumes:
-
4 types of cereal grains: Wheat, Millet, Barley and Spelt.
-
2 types of legumes: Soybeans and Lentils.
