One of my favourite ingredients to support gut health is activated charcoal, known for its ability to bind to unwanted toxins in the digestive tract and support bloating and discomfort. One of the easiest (and most delicious) ways to enjoy it is this nourishing, high-fibre bread that’s loaded with a blend of seeds, psyllium and healthy fats. It’s as supportive as it is satisfying. A beautiful client first gifted me a loaf, and I haven’t stopped making it since 🤍
