Re: Fermented foods vs. probiotics

[Guest guest]

jennifer- a better way to get probiotics in homemade yogurt thats fermented

24hrs.

theculture to start is $30 for a years supply or an even cheaper way is you can

use store

bought yogurt to get the culture from. you can culture any type of milk, goat

is best but

nut milks, coconut milk, and cow milk. all the info on how to do it plus the

benifits are at

the breakingtheviciouscycle.info website under yogurt as well as pecanbread.com

BTW a

cup of homemade yogurt has 5 trillion living probiotics! much higher than any

expensive

probiotic plus it has all the benifits of lactic acid because that's what's in

yogurt. but read

all the info you have to start at a small amount and work up to 2 cups a day.

this is much

stronger than any store bought yogurt or probiotic and you can get bad die off

reactions if

you do too much.

hope this helps
