I recently had an extra special opportunity to speak with Dr. Alan Logan about fermentation. He’s an expert on the topic and has done some serious in-depth research, so I figured I might as well ask him all the questions that have been circulating in my brain the last little while.
Fermented foods have been getting a lot of attention lately and there are loads of misunderstandings about what they are and more so, how imperative they are for our health. See, fermented foods have a direct positive impact on our gut microbiome. It was Hippocrates who declared that all disease begins in the gut. By the same measure, health can also begin in the gut.
The health of our microbiome impacts our hormone balance, energy levels, mood, libido, memory, cognitive response, mobility, weight, appetite…do I need to go on?
There is a lot of confusion around the best types of fermented foods to eat, how much to eat, and the difference in benefit between fermented foods, probiotics and prebiotics.
