"I like this recipe, number one, it's Gluten Free, and 2, it really fills you up! "Hunza Diet Bread is a delicious, dense, chewy bread that's very nutritious and is almost impervious to spoilage. The following recipe makes a huge batch of approximately 48, 2 inch squares, high in protein, vitamins and minerals. Keeps weeks at room temperature, even longer in the fridge and indefinitely in the freezer." When I received the e-mail to sell me this bread, it stated that a housewife created it trying to duplicate a recipe from the Hunza's and it resulted in people not being hungry for 6 or more hours."

Suggestions to lose weight with HUNZA DIET BREAD:
There are many ways to do it. This is another benefit. It's flexible. Here are some typical plans. Each piece of bread is thinly spread with butter for a total of approximately 100 calories.
Plan A: Eat 1 piece every 5 hours of the 16 hours you're awake. That's 3 pieces which total 300 calories. This is the fastest way to lose weight I know of. It works faster than any high protein diet. Why? You have more energy and burn more calories. Second, the high fiber bread keeps your digestive system regular. Third, your body stays healthy. A healthy body means a properly functioning metabolic system.
Plan B: Really gorge yourself with the bread. Two pieces every four hours for a total of 8 pieces but only 800 calories. You'll feel full all day. In fact, I doubt many people could eat this much of the bread.
Plan C: Eat a piece in the morning for breakfast and a piece 3 hours before your dinner and you will eat a great deal less.
Plan D: Eat a piece of HUNZA DIET BREAD, 10 minutes before you eat your regular meal. When we do this we eat only a fraction, such as 1/4 of what we would normally eat. If we wait longer than 10 minutes we don't want to eat at all.
Plan E: Eat the bread at the end of meals that don't fill you up enough, such as low calorie meals. This is a perfect way to use the bread. You eat a low calorie meal, enjoy it, then eat a piece or two of bread to fill you up. Perfect! No suffering and no urge to snack.
Plan F: Alternate Plan A, B, C, D. We recommend an alternation of the plans, but some people who just want to get the weight off as soon as possible will use Plan A exclusively.

I surely don't want to loose weight with this, but as my strange metabolism needs fuel all three hours never mind what I've eaten before, I thought this could be a good idea for my vacations when I'm plannning to walk in the mountains a lot. So I made this today, and when it was cooled, I was really hungry and tried it. As I spread it a bit too thinly I got about 70 2x2 inch squares of which I ate eight for lunch. That was at 2 pm - now it's half past five pm and I'm still so full that I can't even imagine wanting to eat something! Great stuff, I don't think I'll ever get desperate again during a 6 hour walk :D

This recipes works very well. I have tried quite a few times, and determined that there are factors will depend on its coming out well. First, higher elevation makes a difference. Add a little more water, and possibly some more or less 'cook' time. Second, spray the pan before you pour the batter. Otherwise as it drys it will stick to the pan. Third, the lowest setting on my oven was 170F, so I had to dry it for 1.5 hours on that setting, and it was just fine. Other than that, I highly recommend this - and I really was full after eating about 2-3 pieces.
