Fermented Foods
Fermented foods like kimchi, sauerkraut, kefir, and yogurt can be rich in live microbes that benefit your gut. These natural probiotics may help support digestion, immunity, and microbiome balance.
Tip of the day: Add one serving of fermented food to your meals this week — just a spoonful of sauerkraut or a cup of plain yogurt is a great start.
But be mindful: not all fermented foods contain live cultures. Some are pasteurized, and others are packed with sugar or salt that may counteract the benefits. Check the label — look for “live and active cultures” and minimal additives.
Quality matters when it comes to feeding your gut.
