Approximately 80 percent of your body’s immune system is located in your digestive tract and is heavily influenced by the bacteria living there.
The healthiest fermented foods include;
Kombucha: Kombucha is made from a SCOBY (symbiotic colony of bacteria and yeast) mixed with sweetened black or green tea producing natural organic acids, B vitamins, and probiotic bacteria as a result.
Kimchi: This Korean favorite is one of the best sources of probiotics is made by fermenting vegetables, specifically cabbage, with probiotic lactic acid bacteria.
Kefir: Kefir is made by fermenting milk using kefir grains and has a larger variety of beneficial probiotics compared to yogurt, promoting healthy digestion and microbiome health.
Sauerkraut: In addition to its digestive health benefits, is a great source of fiber along with immune-boosting vitamin C and bone-building vitamin K.
Yogurt: Yogurt not only increases the number of good bacteria strains in the gut, but is also high in protein and calcium, which makes it a wise choice for maintaining balanced blood sugar and boosting bone health.
Not only are fermented foods delicious, they are also an important part of a healthy diet.
