What You Should Know

You'd find this loaf in the refrigerated or specialty bread aisle—often by other sprouted or organic breads—picked up for healthy sandwiches or morning toast. It feels wholesome and intentional, geared toward practical, health-focused routines rather than indulgence. The presence of isolated starches, gums and added oils/sweeteners points to an industrially formulated texture and shelf stability, hallmarks of ultra-processed products.

NOVA Score:4 / 4

Ultra-Processed

Why this score?

Despite sprouted grains, the long list of processed components (potato starch, tapioca flour), functional additives (xanthan gum, psyllium), added oil and sweetener indicate industrial formulation for texture and shelf life, consistent with NOVA group 4.

Common Questions about Organic Sprouted Original 3 Seed Bread, 24 OZ

The 3 Seed Bread can be a healthy choice, especially if you're looking for something that’s made with organic ingredients and has no added sugars or preservatives. It's low in sugar and provides some fiber from the seeds, but it's not a protein powerhouse. So, if you’re aiming for a balanced diet, consider pairing it with a nut butter or avocado for a more rounded meal.
