Importance of Fermented Foods for Gut Health
Johnny Drain, author of Adventures in Fermentation, highlights the benefits of incorporating fermented foods into daily routines.
Fermentation occurs when microbes, such as bacteria, yeast, or mold, break down carbohydrates in food, resulting in new compounds. Examples include yogurt, where bacteria convert milk sugar into lactic acid, and bread, where yeast ferments dough sugar into carbon dioxide.
With the current gut health boom, many are turning to fermented foods like kimchi, kefir, sauerkraut, and pickles to improve their well-being.
The internet offers numerous answers, but a balanced approach is key to reaping the benefits of fermentation.
A balanced diet with fermented foods can have a positive impact on overall health.
