From Kombucha to Kefir: Fermented Foods and Gut Health
Set up a free, 30-minute Gut Healing Breakthrough Session with Lindsey to discuss your gut health issues and hear about my 5-appointment gut health coaching program. Set up an individual, 1-hour consultation here.
Fermented foods like kefir, kombucha, pickles and sauerkraut have been shown to improve digestion and increase the availability of nutrients. Hear about the numerous benefits of these probiotic foods and peer reviewed studies on their ability to alleviate IBD symptoms, reduce constipation, heal SIBO, protect against candida, decrease inflammation, build bone strength, boost the immune system, maintain healthy gut bacteria and more.
