Research is emerging that confirms that your microbiome not only influences your mental health, but that if you have certain “stress” organisms in your microbiome, their byproducts feed neural pathways, so that you continue to feel “stressed”.
So a healthy microbiome not only helps you feel physically better. But also supports your mental health. And practices that calm your nervous system also support your microbiome.
Maybe none of this is a surprise. After all we are all familiar with that “gut feeling”. That if we’re upset, our gut doesn’t feel good. And vice versa.
We are more microbe DNA than human DNA, and we have more microbe cells than humans cells in our bodies. So, of course, by changing those microbes, we change ourselves. And that is so dynamic and alive.
We are like a great big party of dancing micro-organisms.
No wonder no human is the same as another. We are as diverse as the various combinations of trillions of microbes.
And, of course, no one probiotic can help us all.
What’s needed depends on your unique environment, and that’s where wild fermentation comes in. Wild fermented foods dynamically shift in composition depending on your changing environment. Hence the microbes in the live sauerkraut made in your kitchen will differ from that made in you neighbours kitchen. And that’s cause you need different microbes than your neighbour.
While popping a pill may seem so much easier. Supplement probiotics have their limitations. And don't even get me started on the corruption within some of these supplement companies, and the lack of reliability of the strains in those products.
Wild fermented foods are the best probiotic that you can get.
Have I done enough to convince you to start making your own unique individualized wild fermentated food?
Whether its sauerkraut, kimchi, pickles, kefir, kombucha.. now is the time to get your own personalized probiotic going on your own kitchen counter.
Here’s a link to a simple sauerkraut recipe to start: RECIPE
*Bonus - sing or speak to your ferment.
We all know the power of Emoto’s water experiments, multiply that into millions of microbes dancing in your fermented food.
And you have the potential to make some amazing medicine.
Enjoy your microbes,
