The Benefits of Sauerkraut

Thank you for continuing to order STELLA bread, today is the last February bread day. If you have any feedback please send it my way I am always trying to improve things and really appreciate your input. If you would like to continue receiving bread in March be sure to order yours soon.
​This week we have raw lacto-fermented sauerkraut samples from My Living Nutrition. This is a sample of the Kraut you can order for the first Thursday of every month to be delivered/ picked-up with your bread (www.mylivingnutrition.com). Fermented foods are one of the most healthy and nutritious things we can eat. Lacto-Fermented Kraut is a great source of vitamin C, B and K, has high levels of...

...magnesium, calcium, potassium as well as iron, copper and manganese and the fermentation process increases our bodies ability to absorb these nutrients. My Living Nutrition’s Kraut contains live lactobacilli and the fiber and probiotics improve digestion and promote a healthy bowel flora. It is a super food! Every ethnic cuisine in the world has fermented foods and most cultures eat something fermented with every meal. Germans love their bread, sauerkraut and pickles, a French meal wouldn't exist without cheese, cured meats and wine. In Japan it is hard to imagine a meal without miso, soy sauce or pickles. A lot of African countries eat fermented porridge made with millet. The modern American diet has been stripped of naturally fermented foods and our bodies are the tell tale sign of it. This is your chance to add two fermented foods to your diet. Both made with local, organic ingredients, right here in Bozeman. Put some Kraut on your toast and enjoy the delicious and healthy world of fermentation!!
