This is an anaerobic process where yeast and bacteria break down sugars, turning them into other products like acids or alcohol.<\/p>\n<p><strong>This is precisely what makes fermented foods so attractive in taste, aroma and look.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You can find thousands of different types of fermented food and drinks. Some of them are, for instance, cultured milk and yogurt, beer, tempeh, kimchi, sauerkraut and so on.<\/p>\n<p>This type of food have been extremely valued through history because the process made the food last longer while still smelling and tasting equally <strong>unique and amazing<\/strong>. Fermentation can also make some of the inedible food very edible &#8211; <em>take olives, for example<\/em>. Raw, they are bitter because of their phenolic compounds but when you ferment them, they <strong>taste great.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fermentation also has many health benefits:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Reduced risk of cardiovascular disease<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Lower risk of developing diabetes<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Reduced risk of obesity &#8211; better weight management<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Better mood and brain activity<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Increased bone health<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Better recovery after exercise<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So, how do they help the heart? Well, they may decrease the lipoprotein cholesterol but the evidence of this is still limited. Another explanation would be that they have bioactive peptides, vitamins produced during fermentation. These elements have some of the <strong>key roles in the body<\/strong> like immunity, nerve function and blood health.<\/p>\n<p>Health benefits of fermented foods and drinks depend on the type of food and drink that you take. So, for instance, fermented milk can reduce muscle soreness while yogurt reduces the risk of type 2 diabetes.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3978 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/7-Probiotic-Rich-Foods-to-Improve-Your-Gut-Health.jpg\" alt=\"7 Probiotic-Rich Foods to Improve Your Gut Health\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/7-Probiotic-Rich-Foods-to-Improve-Your-Gut-Health.jpg 900w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/7-Probiotic-Rich-Foods-to-Improve-Your-Gut-Health-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/7-Probiotic-Rich-Foods-to-Improve-Your-Gut-Health-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/7-Probiotic-Rich-Foods-to-Improve-Your-Gut-Health-180x120.jpg 180w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/7-Probiotic-Rich-Foods-to-Improve-Your-Gut-Health-561x374.jpg 561w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/7-Probiotic-Rich-Foods-to-Improve-Your-Gut-Health-364x243.jpg 364w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/7-Probiotic-Rich-Foods-to-Improve-Your-Gut-Health-758x505.jpg 758w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/7-Probiotic-Rich-Foods-to-Improve-Your-Gut-Health-608x405.jpg 608w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/7-Probiotic-Rich-Foods-to-Improve-Your-Gut-Health-72x48.jpg 72w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/7-Probiotic-Rich-Foods-to-Improve-Your-Gut-Health-144x96.jpg 144w, https:\/\/naturalwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/7-Probiotic-Rich-Foods-to-Improve-Your-Gut-Health-313x209.jpg 313w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>7 Probiotic-Rich Foods to Improve Your Gut Health<\/h3>\n<p>Fermented foods and drinks are also excellent probiotic, <strong>keeping your gut healthy and clean.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h1><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Probiotics_are_good_bacteria\"><\/span>Probiotics are good bacteria.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n<p>We have a lot of them in our digestive systems and they help us maintain weight, digest and process food better and more.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Consuming fermented food helps you maintain the healthy level of probiotics in your body.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Here are <strong>seven<\/strong> great fermented items that you can get to increase your gut health:<\/em><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Kefir\"><\/span><strong>1.
