We had the privilege of learning from microbio Coach, Vanessa Hargrove, who recently spoke at the Weston A Price Foundation nutrition conference in Utah. We saw chronic disease and skin conditions greatly impacted by adding in fermented foods and saying no to processed seed oils.
As an Acupuncture team, we have found that many traditional ways of preparing food has been thrown to the wayside or simply forgotten about in exchange for processed foods or easier to grab meals. It turns out that what we’ve done for thousands of years is extremely beneficial, not only to our gut and our body as a whole, but also to our brains. Learning about the simplicity, and the power of homemade fermented foods is one of the lost cooking arts that should be most definitely brought back as soon as possible. Resiliency to stress is a huge benefit to fermented foods.
All of our Acupuncture team is now “enlightened” and reinvigorated to pursue simple nutritional solutions that make a bigger impact than any bottle of pills ever will. Ask your acupuncturist next time you are in about a fermented food you could start preparing today!
