bread, starch‐reduced Bread is normally 9–10% protein and about 50% starch; if the starch is reduced, either by washing some of it out of the dough or by adding extra protein, the bread is referred to as starch‐reduced, and is often claimed to be of value in
slimming and
diabetic diets. Legally, the name ‘starch‐reduced bread’ may be applied only to bread containing less than 50% carbohydrate, and claims for its value as a slimming aid are strictly controlled.

...old declamatory method did not really die out until the early 20th cent., and such great 18th- and 19th-century actors as Lekain, Sarah Siddons , Edmund Kean , and Junius Brutus Booth would probably seem overly histrionic to modern audiences. Part of...
