⭐5 Super Healthy Probiotic Foods⭐
We tend to think of bacteria as a bad thing—and it can be. But our bodies typically have a combination of both good and bad bacteria.
Keeping a healthy balance of the two is key to good health. Having enough of the good bacteria, or probiotics, helps to fight off the bad bacteria when there’s too much of it. Not to mention, probiotics also improve digestion and generally boost your immune system.
While we have a certain amount of probiotics in our body naturally, we can increase the benefits by eating probiotic foods. Here are 5 super healthy probiotics to consider adding to your diet:
1. Yogurt: In addition to being high in protein and calcium, yogurt is also a good source of probiotics.
2. Sauerkraut: A type of fermented cabbage, sauerkraut is a popular side dish and condiment in many cultures today.
3. Kefir: Kefir is made of fermented milk and, while it’s similar to yogurt, it’s thinner in consistency and actually contains more probiotics than yogurt.
4. Kombucha: A type of fermented tea, kombucha is high in antioxidants and may help prevent conditions like diabetes and cancer.
5. Kimchi: A spicy side dish from Korea, kimchi can be made out of cabbage, radish, or cucumber and is flavored with a mix of seasonings. Its lactic acid bacteria is great for digestive health.
