support the immune system, digestion and the assimilation of nutrients. Try eating a small amount of fermented foods (approximately one to two tablespoons, one to two times each day) to experience the benefits. More isn’t more, however. Eating too much at a time can cause gas and bloating.
When purchasing a fermented food, look for the words “naturally fermented” on the label to ensure it contains probiotics. Additionally, when you open the jar, you should see bubbles, which indicate live, healthy bacteria. Some great fermented foods to add to your diet are sauerkraut, kimchi, dill pickles and kombucha.
