Did you know that a healthy gut is dependent on a diet rich in probiotic foods? The good bacteria in probiotics helps your body break down food and absorb nutrients, boost immunity, and aid in weight loss, which is why it’s important to regularly consume fermented foods and drinks.
Not sure where to start? Below, we’re sharing the tastiest fermented recipes that will lead you to better digestion and a healthier gut.
Mak Kimchi
Kimchi is a staple in Korean cuisine and pairs well with heavy, flavorful dishes. If you’re new to making kimchi, try mak kimchi, which essentially reduces the salting and fermentation time by chopping the cabbage up into small pieces beforehand.
