Re: good bug, bad bug

An update,

I am finding that eating either yogurt and/ or kefir helps

with the same symptom. as the sauerkraut does. Sorry I cannot

say for sure which it is as I make my own and my starter batch

now has both kefir and yogurt in it

I am about to try making sauerkraut again as I need it

or kefir /yogurt with every meal for my stomach .. As I

would prefer drinking sauerkraut juice to eating it I want

to cut the costs .. Heck their is a limit to eating things I

dislike that much. !!!--semiLOL==

From my readings people find sauerkraut helps with candida,

and with constipation too.
