Why Symbiota?
Research on the benefits of fermented foods shows that when we are regularly eating fermenting foods, the diversity of our gut microbiome is significantly boosted. Furthermore, the potential health benefits include improved bone health, gut health, heart health, regulated blood pressure, physical health, and long-lasting improvements to mood and mental health.
Home-based food lacto-fermentation is a natural and safe process which allows the naturally probiotic and beneficial lactic acid bacteria to thrive, and prevents the growth of less healthy microorganisms. Home-fermentation is a great way to safely preserve foods without artificial preservatives, enhancing the nutritional value of all foods, and extending the shelf life.
