Finding new “ready-to-eat” super foods that taste great and are actually truly healthy is no easy task! Karthein’s Organic Unpasteurized Sauerkraut is prepared the old fashioned way. The sauerkraut is naturally fermented, meaning it is aged in a brine of salt and its own juice. It contains:
- No vinegar
- No preservatives
- No destructive heat processing
- Certified organic cabbage and unrefined grey sea salt
This strict recipe and process encourages the proliferation of lactobacillus, a probiotic microorganism that is beneficial to the flora in your gut, akin to the beneficial bacteria that can be found in other fermented superfoods such as yogurt and kefir.
An ancient practice, fermentation has been keeping humans and their microflora happy for over 6,000 years (that we know of!).
Left untreated, kraut delivers a staggering range of health benefits: the bacteria populate your gut, aiding in good digestion, proper nutrient extraction of the foods you eat, and more.
Pioneering neuroscience is even calling the gut the “second brain”, as new research suggests that gut health may directly influence our neurological health and could even play a role in the regulation of depression and anxiety.
