Enzymes

1. Improved Digestive Health: Enzyme-rich fermented foods can help restore the balance of friendly bacteria in your gut. This may alleviate symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), such as bloating and irregular stool frequency 1.

2. Enhanced Immune System: The gut microbiome significantly influences your immune system. Fermented foods, due to their high probiotic content, can give your immune system a boost and reduce the risk of infections like the common cold1.

3. Nutrient Bioavailability: Fermentation enhances the availability of nutrients in foods. When enzymes break down carbs during fermentation, the resulting products are more easily absorbed by your body.

4. Neutralization of Anti-Nutrients: Fermentation neutralizes anti-nutrients like phytic acid, commonly found in nuts, legumes, and grains. These anti-nutrients can otherwise interfere with mineral absorption2.

5. Improved Taste and Variety: Fermented foods offer unique flavors and textures, making your meals more interesting and diverse.
