Commercial yeast is a trigger for my gut. Its used because it's cheap and gives consistent results, not because its good for you. I do make my own sourdough, and can cope with using normal white bread flour for that, and I've found that I can tolerate a little bit of the commercial white stuff if I preload in the day with some sourdough.
Yes. Yes!!!
If you get a piece of bread or bread roll and rip the crust off and squeeze it into a ball it's almost dough again. That's going in my gut and that's why I feel shit and sluggish.
