I have been having this for a good two weeks. I have been exploring ways to restore health
to my gut area.
I know that naturally Sauerkraut is the way to go since it is a natural probiotic and now I hear that Kefir is yet another option for those of us suffering from (Bloating, gas, indigestion, yeast etc.).
I personally do not know how I am going to handle it because as I understand, it has to be mixed in
with milk and I cannot tolerate that.
As you all know, your GO TO product to get yourself back in order is yogurt, however, that is packed full of sugar and yeast feeds on sugar. So honestly, you are doing more harm than good at this point.
The amount of live probiotics in the yogurt we consume is not enough to over power the sugar that are in your brands like yoplait.
Your best bet is to go the natural way:
- Sauerkraut
- Plain Yogurt
- Soft cheeses (Make sure they are gluten free)
- Milk with probiotics
- Sour pickles
- Probiotic supplements
When it comes to probiotic supplements make sure you are getting a good natural brand.
You don't want to buy probiotics that have a huge amount of fillers in it and not enough of the
good stuff. Look for the words "Raw" "Organic" and "Made with real food or food based".
That way you know you are getting the best.
My personal GO TO brands for this is:
GARDEN OF LIFE
&
MAGAFOOD
Both of these brands make natural food based products. If you look on the ingredients of a bottle of supplements and you do not recognize the ingredients, that is a clear indication that there are fillers inside. Look for ingredients you do recognize like raw vegetables and fruits & how much live probiotics are in there. If they state that it is best that you refrigerate the probiotics, this is yet another indication that you have found some good supplements.
I think soon here, I will be making some sort of saurerkraut soup for myself to enjoy.
Why not, it tastes good and it good for you. :)
Hope this has helped!
