Nutrient Density in Sourdough

When the calories we eat bring plenty of nutrients to the plate as well, we can consider that a nutrient dense meal. Bite-for-bite, nutrient-dense foods give your body more vitamins, minerals, and beneficial fats and fiber. Further, Stone House sourdough bread has even greater appeal because its natural fermentation process helps unlock more of the nutrition that’s already in the grain.

During the slow rise, wild yeast and bacteria break down parts of the flour that can reduce the amount of nutrients your body can absorb. That means the minerals, fiber, and plant compounds in whole grains become easier to use. Sourdough also holds on to more protein and B-vitamins than many conventionally-made loaves.

The best part? You don’t have to think about it while you eat. Each slice of our sourdough brings together traditional methods and smart nutrition to give your body more of what it needs to feel its best.
