DIY Kimchi
Kimchi is a traditional fermented Korean staple side dish made from a combination of salted vegetables.
Kimchi is a nutrient powerhouse! It is absolutely full of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, prebiotics, probiotics, digestive enzymes, fiber and more.
Kimchi is delicious, nutrient dense, and is widely recognized to have powerful detoxifying properties and is especially great for digestive function and liver health.

Why Choose
Fermented Foods?
-
Did you know that the microbes (yeasts, bacteria, fungi) living on and in your body outnumber the actual cells that make up your body 10 to 1?
-
Humans have a symbiotic relationship with our microbes and we each have our own personal population of microbes called the microbiome.
-
Supporting the ‘good’ microbes and maintaining a healthy microbiome is essential to good health and consuming fermented foods is one great way to support them!
