For those who are trying to watch their weight, eating bread is a no no! The good news is that you dont need to banish bread from your diet entirely because there are other healthy alternatives such as sourbread. Not only is it tasty, but its packed full of healthy ingredients. Sourdough is no ordinary bread; it does wonders for the body; here are some interesting facts about this much-loved treat:

It Boosts Gut Health: Sourdough starter is the main ingredient in sourdough, this is what causes it to rise and its packed with living good bacteria. The starter is high in probiotics and prebiotics, both of which are powerful nutrients for the gut.

It Digests Well: One of the many complaints about eating store-bought bread is that it causes bloating and constipation. You wont have this problem with sourdough because the good bacteria ferment the sourdough and this process pre-digests it before youve even cut a slice.

It Helps the Body Absorb More Nutrients: Phytic acid is a chemical found in wheat, it prevents the body from absorbing many of the minerals and vitamins in wheat. However, the sourdough starter breaks down phytic acid which enables the body to absorb the vitamins and minerals it needs from the wheat.

Now that you have some interesting facts about sourdough, its time to start making this delicious bread.
