Key Health Benefits of Authentic Sourdough

• Enhanced Digestibility: The fermentation process by lactic acid bacteria and wild yeast breaks down complex starches and gluten, making it easier on the digestive system.

• Better Nutrient Absorption: By reducing phytates (anti-nutrients) that block absorption, sourdough allows for higher bioavailability of minerals like magnesium, iron, and zinc.

• Blood Sugar Management: Sourdough has a lower glycemic index (GI), causing a slower, more stable release of glucose into the bloodstream.

• Gut Health (Prebiotic Effect): The lactic acid bacteria produce compounds that act as prebiotics, feeding beneficial bacteria in the gut, which can support immune health.

• Natural Preservation: The acidity produced during fermentation naturally inhibits mold growth, often eliminating the need for preservatives found in commercial bread.

• Rich in Nutrients: Contains a variety of B vitamins, Vitamin E, iron, and antioxidant compounds.
