It has to do with the way your body breaks down sugars. White bread has simple sugars, which are empty calories. Wheat bread has more complex sugars, and provide more energy.
Also, wheat bread has more fiber.
Whole wheat bread has the whole kernel of wheat crushed and used in the bread. I don't think there is much difference nutritionally between plain non-whole wheat bread and white bread. A lot of wheat (non-whole wheat) bread is just colored brown to make it look healthier. Whole wheat bread is healthier than white bread. It will keep you fuller longer than white bread which has little nutritional value.
A couple of months ago I got a coupon for a free loaf of bread. I brought it home and it sat on the counter for about six weeks. It never got moldy. I finally tossed it. It was obviously full of chemicals to keep it from molding. (I felt like I was doing a food test like they did at the end of the movie SuperSize Me! LOL) Its important to know what you are putting into your body.
There are quite a few things that wheat bread can have that white bread doesn't. These things include essential vitamins.
If presereved then yes
White bread does not necessarily mold faster than other bread. It depends upon the formulation, the quality of the ingredients and the conditions under which the bread was made, transported and stored.
Whole grain (brown) bread is better than white (refined) bread nutritionally. Whole grain bread, which is typically made with wheat, rye, or oat flour, retains the entire grain when producing the bread. Whole grains are very good for you. White bread contains refined flour, typically refined wheat flour, which is not whole grain.
Mould would grow the fastest on the Wheat Bread since it has no preservatives. second in number would be Multi-grain bread and the last would be White bread. Mould Growth Speed: - Fastest --- Wheat/brown bread. second fastest --- multi grain bread slowest --- White bread There is no way that anyone can tell you which will mold the fastest since we don't know all the variables, like moisture, the formulation of the bread or the conditions under which they were produced. In the U.S., all breads could have preservatives. And white bread is a wheat bread. Given that white flour is 'cleaned up' - bran and germ removed - it would seem logical that those exterior parts of the grain would carry more mold and that white flour would then naturally contain less mold than a whole grain flour. But if the white flour is milled and packaged in a facility where sanitation is poorly controlled or the grain was of poor quality, the mold might not be greatly reduced.This could be a good topic for a science project, but you still would not know the amount of preservatives used, the mold load from the environment or ingredients, or if the ingredients are even all declared.
The purpose of my experiment was to discover how the type of bread affected the amount of mold. The bread was cut and placed in separate Ziploc bags. The bread was measured for mold every day and was recorded on the data sheet. Whole Wheat bread was the type of bread that grew the most mold, while white, wheat, and sourdough did not grow any mold. When Whole Wheat bread was left to mold, it grew an average of 60.91 square cm. When sweet bread was left to mold, it grew an average of .58 square cm. of mold. When white, wheat, and sourdough were left to mold, they grew no visible mold. Mold eats only organic material as they primarily degrade cellulose, often found on plants. Cellulose is not digestible by humans and is often referred to as 'dietary fiber' or 'roughage'. In Whole Wheat and sweet bread, there is more cellulose than the other types of bread. In the whole wheat bread, there is at least 70 percent of the wheat germ, and since 33 percent of all plant matter is cellulose, there is the most cellulose in the whole wheat bread. IN Addition: Breads with the higher moisture levels have the greatest chance of molding first because they have a larger amount of medium for the mold to grow upon. Breads like banana nut bread, sourdough, and pumpernickel last the shortest time for me. I refrigerate my breads until i need them. Human contact can also effect this test.
Brass hinges last longer than steel hinges.
White bread doesn't necessarily mold faster than whole wheat bread. (White bread is usually made from wheat.) It depends upon the formulations, the quality of the ingredients, the processing conditions, storage conditions and the handling by all parties involved.Check the wheat bread ingredients. If it contains honey, the honey could be acting as an antimicrobial.In my experiences, yes it has. That is why I always buy wheat bread. And if I do buy white bread I refrigerate it.

I believe that if you keep bread in the freezer, it will last longer than if it was at room temperature or if it was in the fridge.
I actually did my last year's science fair on this... In theory, the store-bought bread will mold more slowly than the bakery bread. This is because the store bought bread is baked with all kinds of preservatives to give it a longer shelf life. However, most bakery breads are not.

Answer:White bread decays first as it holds more moisture, whereas brown bread has more chemicals to keep it fresh. Answer:The rate at which bread will deteriorate depends upon many things including: the formulation, the use of preservatives, the quality of the ingredients, the cleanliness of the production facility and the handling of the product after cooking. I have seen white bread last much longer than some brown breads, and vice versa. Answer:Both ~ about the same.
Does bread last longer on the counter or the refridgerator
no white do than red
No
They last longer.
After it is done baking, putting white cake in the fridge will make it last longer.
