The Health Benefits of Fermented Foods

Stanford researchers found that eating a diet high in fermented foods increases the diversity of gut microbes, which is associated with improved health and decreased signs of inflammation. 

Popular fermented foods:

  • Kimchi (vegetables)

  • Kombucha (tea beverage)

  • Pickled vegetables (carrots, cucumbers, onions, etc.)

  • Yogurt (milk)

  • Sauerkraut (cabbage)

  • Kefir (milk beverage)

  • Tempeh (boiled soybeans)

  • Miso (soybean paste)

  • Sourdough (bread)

What exactly is fermentation?
It’s a natural process where carbohydrates are converted into alcohol or organic acids using yeast or bacteria.

Note kefir can be made from water and fruits as well. In such case, it's called "water kefir", or sometimes "fruit kefir". You associate water kefir grains with sugar (to feed the kefir), water, lemon, and whatever fruit you'd like to experiment with :-)
