Is sourdough bread healthy?

I’ve always appreciated Paul’s “I don’t do this, but if you do, here’s what you need to know, ” approach.

I appreciate that you’ve recently been providing content like this. It’s important to tell people that a reduction in inflammatory compounds is still beneficial.

Baker: “is he talking shit about my bread?”

I think a general rule of thumb is that if a food is fermented it's easier on your gut and has more bioavailable nutrients.

Gluten is not the problem.
It is the wheat as it has been modified for decades and sprayed with useless poisons

I really like his point “if you’re thriving with it, go ahead”. He’s giving advice without ramming it down people’s throats. Very smart and informative

I really appreciate when you say, “If can tolerate it, then go for it”. ❤

Celiac here and I’m thriving on sourdough

Paul your channel has changed me and my family's lives. We make our sourdough from organic unbleached flour but would like to grind our own from organic heritage wheat berries. It would be awesome if you could have an expert on that could go into detail on this topic. Thank you again for all that you do!

Over in Europe we only have sourdough bread. That and all the other old school things that are good for you. American supermarkets were a shock to me.

Eating sourdough bread in Germany is so different than eating American sourdough bread. I thrived eating food in Germany for years, but here in the US it's a daily struggle. Carnivore based has helped greatly so thank you Dr

I eat the sourdough from rye flour. I love the energy that'd provides me.

I make my own sourdough bread and i can say it is MUCH better than yeasted dough. I also use high protein flour which allows me to use more water in my dough. The results: A lighter, airier bread with better taste and it's healthier for my gut!

Sourdough is best homemade so that you have control of the oils. Store bought is often made with canola oil.

Organic buckwheat, einkorn flour, rye is perfectly fine. We make our own buckwheat bread, it's delicious

It really depends what flour you use.Einkorn for example is ancient grain and much lower gluten.. Ikaria, which is a blue zone thrive on it.

I’ve been making proper sourdough at home for the last 6 months and, while I could probably do without bread and wheat in general due to digestive and allergy issues, I’ve found that my simply made sourdough feels so much more real and digestible than yeast-based, more highly processed, commercial breads. It’s effectively just flour, water and salt, so really simple, and the natural fermentation process really is one of nature’s wonders. It’s nature watching out for us.

Just make sure you're consuming vinegar. This should solve phytic acid issues

I seem to do okay with my home made, organic Einkorn flour sourdough bread with extra long rising time. But I don't eat it everyday. Einkorn flour is an ancient wheat grain and has much less gluten.
