Probiotics in Sauerkraut


My first batch of sauerkraut. Go big or go home, no?

You must know that our gut is responsible for part of our immunity, our well being. 
It harbors both good and bad bacteria.  
Ideally, you want 80% good bacteria (probiotics) and 20% bad guys (they're inevitable)
Most people have this ratio switched; 80% bad guys :'(

As Lamar would say, "Don't just take my word for it"
If you are serious about your well being, 

don't just take my word for it...... try it :]

Other sources of probiotics:
- Apple Cider Vinegar 
(unfiltered, raw, with mother)
- Kefir
- Yogurt
- Kimchee
- Kombucha
- Cheese (don't go crazy now,kids)
- Miso
(Pretty much fermented things)

For my extra credit bunnies ^__^: Research what a pre-biotic is and know that every time you have soluble fiber, you are feeding your probiotics (yay chia seeds!)
