Foods like yogurt, kefir, ginger, and fiber-rich fruits and vegetables can support a healthy gut. Here's what each one does and how to get the most from them.
Sauerkraut is fermented cabbage with a strong probiotic profile and a meaningful amount of vitamins C and K. Unlike kefir, it's dairy-free, making it a good option for people avoiding animal products. The fermentation process also produces enzymes that help break down food in the digestive tract. One important note: buy refrigerated sauerkraut rather than shelf-stable canned varieties, as the canning process kills the beneficial bacteria.
