by Wendy Humphris, ROHP Fermented foods are defined as foods which have undergone a process called “fermentation” wherein natural bacteria feed on starch and sugar on foods creating lactic acid. The fermentation process preserves food and creates highly beneficial enzymes such as Omega 3 fatty acids, B vitamins and several strains of probiotics. Natural food fermentation has also shown to effectively preserve food nutrients and break down foods to forms that are easier to digest.

by Wendy Humphris, ROHP It never fails: you decide now is the time to lose some weight or change your eating habits and you suddenly start craving sugary, high-calorie food. These cravings are both physiological and psychological, and a lot may have to do with your gut microbe. Neuroscientists have evidence that specific types of gut flora are responsible for helping detect which nutrients are missing in the body and what food is required in order to fulfill the need.
