- Fermented vegetables: Cultured or fermented foods have a very long history in virtually all native diets, and have always been highly prized for their health benefits. The culturing process produces beneficial microbes that are extremely important for human health as they help balance your intestinal flora, thereby boosting overall immunity. Moreover, your gut literally serves as your second brain, and even produces more of the neurotransmitter serotonin — known to have a beneficial influence on your mood — than your brain does, so maintaining a healthy gut will benefit your mind as well as your body. Fermented foods are also some of the best chelators and detox agents available, meaning they can help rid your body of a wide variety of toxins, including heavy metals.
As with kefir, you’ll want to avoid any product that’s been pasteurized or contains preservatives or other additives. Fortunately, culturing your own vegetables is much easier than you might think, and more economical than buying from someone else. For instructions on making your own, see this previous article featuring an interview with Caroline Barringer and discusses the health benefits of fermented vegetables in greater detail.
