One of the best ways to ensure your body is well-balanced is by looking after your gut health. Optimal gut health can support our digestion, increase nutrient absorption from food, and support our immune system, making it invaluable in supporting our overall wellness. Consuming fermented foods, such as sourdough bread, is an excellent way to increase the variety of beneficial bacteria in your gut. Here are some top tips on how to begin fermenting your very own sourdough starter.

However, we can find ways to care for ourselves, protecting our energy and health throughout the stresses we encounter in daily life.
