Looking for Ways to Eat Healthier? Start With Sourdough

What if I told you the secret to a healthier diet begins with bread? 🥖

I’m not talking about just any bread, to be clear. I’m talking about sourdough—and how adding it to your diet can revolutionize your approach to healthy eating. 

Did you know sourdough bread has health benefits including better digestibility, fewer carbohydrates (meaning lower blood sugar spikes), and more antioxidants and nutrients than other types of bread?

As a registered dietitian (and big sourdough fan) who spends her time helping clients find joy in healthier habits, I want to introduce you to Wildgrain—an innovative bake-at-home service that delivers fresh sourdough, artisanal pastries, and fresh pasta straight to your door. 

Here’s why I think Wildgrain is one of the best (and easiest ways) to take a big step towards a healthier diet: 

Quality and Consistency… Without the Prep Work

I always find that one of the biggest hurdles to maintaining a healthy diet is finding the time to prep and cook, especially when you’re making things from scratch.

Wildgrain's bake-from-frozen sourdough bread is a breath of fresh air in this regard. 

Picture this: with bake times around just 25 minutes from freezer to plate, you can enjoy fresh artisanal bread, pasta, and pastries without the hassle of kneading, proofing, or messy clean-up. 

Considering all the ways bread can supplement meals at any time of day—think toast for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch, and as a versatile side for dinner—Wildgrain has been a meal-time game-changer in my house. 

Wildgrain has boxes ranging from $69 to $109 that always ship free. Whether you’re interested in bread and rolls, pastries and desserts, or exploring vegan options, you can always customize your boxes and delivery schedule to suit your needs!

Out-of-This-World Taste 

Can frozen breads and pastries really rival fresh ones?

I’ll admit, I was a bit skeptical at first. I value food that nourishes both body and soul, and Wildgrain’s sourdough impressed me by delivering on both fronts. 

As soon as these loaves come out of the oven, the crust is crunchy, the interior soft, and the bread has that authentic, artisanal flavor you’d expect at high-end restaurants—I immediately realized grocery store sourdough couldn’t hold a candle to Wildgrain.

Clean Ingredients (and Clear Health Benefits)

Unlike the bread on most grocery shelves that can be loaded with additives and preservatives, Wildgrain products are crafted with clean, non-GMO ingredients and are always free from artificial colors and preservatives. 

Plus, the long fermentation process of Wildgrain’s sourdough not only contributes to irresistible flavor and texture, but also enhances digestibility, reduces blood sugar spikes brought on by carbohydrate consumption, increases nutritive properties, and naturally extends shelf life. What’s not to like about that?  

Options to Complement Every Meal, Every Day

Opening a Wildgrain box is a lot like visiting your local market or bakery.

Whether it's Wildgrain’s hearty sourdough bread, delicate artisan pastries, or fresh, handmade pasta, there’s always an option to complement every meal for every member of your household. 

Wildgrain’s variety not only caters to different tastes but also encourages a more wholesome diet. Unlike at your local bakery—where loaves start to go stale the moment they hit the shelves—Wildgrain ensures your baked goods are always oven-fresh. 

Giving Back to Local Artisans and Communities

As if all these benefits weren’t enough, Wildgrain also has a strong dedication to supporting artisans and local communities. 

By partnering with small bakeries, Wildgrain supports small businesses to deliver the highest-quality baked goods. Also, for every new Wildgrain membership, the company donates four meals to The Greater Boston Food Bank. 

Because my work revolves around helping people to eat healthily regardless of their background, this initiative really resonated with me. It’s always nice when your choices can lend an extra hand!     

Wrapping Up

I've always believed that healthy eating shouldn't be a chore. That’s why I’m so head-over-heels about Wildgrain.

Not only has Wildgrain transformed how I think about baking, they’ve also consistently delivered flavor, health, and convenience to me and my family. 

I also love how flexible Wildgrain’s memberships are. Once you’re signed up, you can choose the frequency of your deliveries and the types of products you receive, which makes it easy to plan your meals. If you travel often or are frequently on the go, you can always reschedule, cancel, or skip an order at any time.

If you want to make a simple yet impactful change to your diet, I encourage you to try Wildgrain! Trust me, your body—and your taste buds—will thank you.
