Fermented Foods Benefits

A recent study reveals that a high intake of fermented foods significantly boosts microbiome diversity while reducing inflammatory markers, such as interleukin-6. Surprisingly, increasing fiber intake did not enhance microbiota diversity as expected. Consistent consumption of fermented foods over time proved more beneficial than just the quantity consumed, highlighting the importance of incorporating low-sugar options like yogurt, kimchi, and sauerkraut into daily diets.
