Sauerkraut, along with other types
of fermented foods, has many health benefits. Therefore, if you're
looking for a great way to improve the way you eat, adding sauerkraut to
your meals at dinner time might just be your answer.
One health benefit is that it's great for your digestive system. It's a probiotic, which means that it's packed with all the good bacteria that your digestive tract requires. These good bacteria include Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria - both of which help break down lactose, sugars, and starches which ultimately helps aid digestion.
However, the benefits are not all stomach-related. Sauerkraut can improve skin conditions, oral health, and vaginal health. Furthermore, it can also prevent allergies as well as help maintain a healthy immune system. If this isn't enough, it can also help with weight loss.
Whether you are a long-time lover of sauerkraut, or whether you'd like to try it for the first time, below is just the recipe for you. This recipe will give you one gallon of sauerkraut.
