Well, I made my first batch of kimchi, and it was seriously pungent but really good! However, I'm not sure if I over did it, or if it's just my Crohn's. I had three servings (I know, probably too much, especially since it's a new food for me) and a few days later I came down with a low grade fever. Fevers are one of my main symptoms for Crohn's and can get really high. So, I'm assuming kimchi is like any probiotic and can cause die off. Not sure if I should completely eliminate it for a while or not. I've just recently tapered from prednisone, and it was what really kicked back my flare, so it could just be that too. Hmm. What do you guys think, just stay away from the kimchi for now? I'm sad, because I heard it's not good raw after a week. Then you have to put it in soups and stews (and then I'm wondering if that kills all the probiotics off.)I still struggle with knowing how to tell the difference between die off and

just plain old Crohn's.Thanks!Amber

Hey Amber!

 

This sounds great! As is so often the case with me, I read the recipe and d*** it! Garlic and ginger! I am supposedly highly sensitive to both according to my IgG results. Two very important flavors to so many things and I'm not supposed to have it. But I will save it into my recipe file and when further healing has occurred I'll give it a go. Thanks for sharing.
