[@gphx]

Chapter timeline, references, and a transcript. Very impressive.

[@ucsolutionsgivingmore]

Yes please make a video on sourdough bread 😊. Thank you in advance. Good videos I learning a lot

[@alvinkim1305]

One thing I really valued about this video was the fact that fermented foods can manufacture vitamins. Thank you for sharing~

[@HandmaidenOfDistinction66854]

🙋🏾‍♀️Yes please, create the sourdough video if you haven't already done so. Thank you.🌷🌱

[@earlysda]

sourdough bread is not as healthy as regular, non-sour bread.

[@AliOlshan]

Appreciate your information! Grew up in Ukraine on fermented foods! Great memory going into the underground cellar! Much love.

[@williammcduff6531]

Thanks for the video I just finished making some home made sauerkraut and added about 10% grated carrots to the cabbage. I checked some commercial sauerkraut and the salt content was 7% and I only make it with 2.5% which is much less.

[@Martysmarch]

This is great. Thanks a lot. Finding some benfit from ferments for my painful joints and imflammation. Lots of sports injries.

[@ozdoits]

Plain basic fermented Sourdough recipe and health benefits video - yes please!!! We've been taught that all flour is bad for health! Plus bread makes us want thick butter, also maybe not so healthful? Please teach us!

[@danaaustin554]

Grassfed butter and butter from A2 cows are super wonderful for us! :)

[@jessekay9171]

Grassfed butter is superbeneficial when paired with fermented foods. It produces a by-product in the gut called butyrate. Prevents lots of cancers and good for mood and the absorption of vitamins.

[@timtimnono2492]

Yes, please make a video about sourdough bread. Thank you!

[@Americansikkunt]

Very informative! Thank you!

[@joelstrom7671]

Thank you. I will seek out some recipes. And a special thank you for the prompt reply!

Hi. I have GERD and have started consuming yogurt and sourdough bread. Unfortunately, I have been experiencing stomach discomfort and suspect the sour taste might be the cause. How can I go around this problem and continue consuming probiotics? Thanks.

[@andsoitgoes1142]

PLEASE be very careful when you start eating fermented food. I have stomach issues and thought fermented food would help. I am so sick now, with histamine intolerance. I have had an extremely bad reaction to these foods. It’s like a severe allergy that I can’t get under control.I can’t sleep and there are very few foods that won’t make me sick now. I caused my immune system to go into overdrive and I cannot stop it. Be very careful.

[@Aansherin7173]

I started eating fermented vegetables and my stomach burns, I am confused why is that and can you tell me early symtoms of histamin intolerance, please😢

[@jonphinney1456]

I’d love to see a segment on sourdough bread

[@realpandit874]

Please have a video on fermented food methods to create vitamin K recipes.

[@joygobin]

Amazing! Going to make it x

[@ryanc5663]

I ate sauerkraut 2 weeks ago on a thursday, woke up on sunday and could only remember that i had to puke once and all that came out was the sauerkraut, went to the toilet on sunday and what came out of my bumhole and the way it smelled was like death, havnt been myself since and still feel really strange and bad, cant sleep for the last 1,5week. Dont know if the sauerkraut was bad or was histamine intolerance but i am neverrrrrr everrrrrr eating it again. I have never felt so strange , felt like my soul was disconnected from my body . I felt like i was poisoned and was going to die 👎🏼 still here tho

[@vladimirshiryaev2563]

спасибо! про хлеб на закваске интересно....

[@patrickjosephelvin3043]

Can fermented rice increase blood sugar level that is my very concerned question.

[@carnicavegirl7214]

Redmond sea salt is wonderful to use and I regulates blood pressure 😉

[@leelarani6345]

Hello, I am new to fermenting. Please tell me if making sauerkraut using cabbage + carrot mixed with salt, can destroy the cabbage worms like cabbage hooper worms. This is a matter of grave concern to me. Please share your knowledge. Regards.

[@hitreset0291]

Just eat the worms and count them in your protein intake.

[@CoreBalance]

Love it!

[@dna1238]

With blood pressure one is expected to consume less salt, so does the salt content in fermented foods impact BP? I know you said it helps but can thus be clarified, ie what happens to the salt during the fermentation process?

[@ozdoits]

Here's an option: Those who need less salt can use fermented foods as the only salty flavorful seasoning on otherwise no-added-salt meals. I could give examples if you like. Also, this channel has a no salt sauerkraut recipe that you might like to consider. Hope this is useful.

[@bestairdrops858]

Can we ferment in steel utensils?

[@HappyBellyfish]

It's not recommended. Best choice is a glass or ceramic/clay container.

[@elizabethbrauer1118]

Sourdough video please!

[@angelagrosso2162]

Thanks for a great video. Could you have fermented food when you have SIBO and severe digestive issues.

[@earlysda]

Talked about side effects of fermented foods, and didn't even touch on the increased cancer rate of people/countries that eat a large amount of fermented food?

[@HappyBellyfish]

Thank you for this comment, we do extensive research before we share any information on this channel. Please can you support this claim with links to data/research, so that I could look into it?

[@HappyBellyfish]

If you refer to studies made on Kimchi, I'd like to share an article with you that does a brilliant research analysis and has plenty of references. In a nutshell: it's not FERMENTATION that increases the risk of cancer, and it's definitely not fermented foods as such. In fact, some fermented foods reduce the risks of certain types of cancer. The problem is the SALT, and the amount of it to be precise. In either case, there is conflicting data to make any strong claims of this sort. Here is the link to the article: www.ift.org/news-and-publications/food-technology-magazine/issues/2017/april/columns/food-medicine-and-health-link-between-gastric-cancer-kimchi-consumption

[@earlysda]

@@HappyBellyfish Kimchi in Korea, Miso and Natto in Japan. Yes, fermentation has some bad side-effects that should be made more widely known.

[@HappyBellyfish]

Please see my comment above about Kimchi, it refers to other foods as well. If you know of some side effects and can share them here in comments, with the links to information sources, it would be helpful for the community. Thank you!

[@earlysda]

@@HappyBellyfish "there have been debates whether kimchi and soybean paste are protective factors or risk factors for gastric cancer. Messina et al[7] suggested that there was an inconsistent relationship between intake of soybean foods and stomach cancer; the risk seemed to increase with intake of fermented soybean foods and decrease with intake of nonfermented soybean foods. Kimchi and soybean pastes have been reported as risk factors for gastric cancer in some epidemiological studies[3,6] and as protective factors against gastric cancer in others[8]."

Looking for safe sodium levels in fermented veggies which I already make and eat..yummy xx n

[@Kattycha]

It can also cause Insomnia... still delicious, togh.

[@joelstrom7671]

Can you mak sourdough gluten free bread?

[@HappyBellyfish]

Yes, it's possible with a mix of gluten-free flours

[@jiensuyang3915]

Pickles are not fermented by definition. 😂😂😂 Pickles are shelf stable till opened. Fermented foods have to be refrigerated.
