Fermented foods like sourdough starter, sauerkraut, or kimchi are not only healthy for your gut biome, but when thinking about stocking up on food during a time of crisis, these items can last a long time, AND they have healing properties, so they are a much better choice to have on hand for emergencies, instead of highly processed foods.  Processed foods are often laden with unhealthy additives, preservatives, sugars, fats, and too much sodium.  Hear our episode on how to get FREE online entertainment -including books and magazines on health benefits, plans, and recipes.
