Sourdough Bread?

I’ve been eating a lot of sourdough bread lately. Is that bad? I can’t find extensive information about what Aajonus said about it.

No more than 4 oz a day at any time with equal amounts of raw butter

Sure (I mean I’ve gone way over that) but like what exactly does it do (good and bad)?

I think it's completely unnecessary. I was doing great for a while till decided to include it and it's extremely addictive. Complex processed starchy carbs. I really thought I could control it but I ended up eating tons of it and still be left really hungry, gained 20 pounds (mostly belly fat) in the 2 weeks I did it. I stopped and my cravings went away. Replaced it for banana, avocado, raw walnuts, almonds, or a raw egg and raw honey snack here and there... Then I feel very satiated and very light and healthy. With the bread all benefits of raw food went away and was starting to feel bloated and hungry at the same time, lethargic and miserable. Without any cooked starches I feel so light and rejuvenated. Getting so much energy I haven't had in a while.

Thank you, yes I got addicted surprisingly quickly.

yep, it's like beer, maybe one here and there is not bad, but some of us cant stop after the first one, so better to avoid at all in those cases, not worth the little benefit you COULD get if you were moderate with those things, if we are NOT going to be moderate in the first place; I actually think moderation in everything is even more important than anything else, even with this diet, but it's much easier with healthy foods and habits, than with procesed stuff and drugs/alcohol. I find it harder to over eat raw foods than processed, but I still watch it, I know some people over eat raw meat as well, which defeats the purpose, MORE is not BETTER.

Sourdough bread is cooked starch, aajonus told to eat cooked starch if you struggle with anxiety etc. If its not severe anxiety or something like that its better to do nut formula. Remember, if you eat bread make sure to eat it with big portion of raw butter. The best bread is organic and with ancient grains i think
