More and more people are experiencing intestinal problems that are also directly related to mental health, metabolism, skin, inflammation or the immune system. And our lifestyle doesn't help much.
Fortunately, we can implement habits to improve our microbiota. One simple option is to introduce natural probiotic foods into our daily diet.
Probiotics are bacteria and other microorganisms that help us keep pathogens at bay and help us improve digestion and nutrient absorption. In addition, They prevent harmful bacteria from causing inflammation, gas, discomfort and any discomfort that affects intestinal health. They are our best allies!
The best thing is that there are foods that contain them naturally and you can find them in any supermarket.
7 foods with natural probiotics
1. Yogur
Probiotics are responsible for giving yogurt its wonderful flavor and texture. How long have you been consuming it without realizing it? Make sure you buy a good quality yogurt, one that is not skimmed, since we want it to contain all its good fats.
2. Kombucha tea
You're probably imagining a "lazy" drink, but nothing could be further from the truth - it's delicious! Kombucha is obtained by fermenting black or green tea with sugar, producing organic acids, vitamins, and beneficial probiotics. This process results in a slightly carbonated drink with a sweet, acidic taste.
3. Sauerkraut
It is a natural probiotic food made from cabbage that has been fermented with salt. It is used quite frequently in certain European countries such as Germany, France or Poland. It is a very good source of vitamin C, vitamin K and fiber.
4. Cheeses: Mozzarella, Gouda and Cheddar
If you are also a cheese lover, this is good news for you. These are cheeses made through a fermentation process that facilitates the digestion of lactose. In addition, they are an excellent source of protein, calcium and essential vitamins. This dairy product is different from the rest because it has not been subjected to pasteurization to reduce live microorganisms. Therefore, the result is a more intense and natural flavor. A delight for fresh cheese lovers.
5. Apple cider vinegar
Although in Spain it is more common to consume wine vinegar, raw and unfiltered apple cider vinegar is a very good option for dressing your salads as it contains probiotics. It is obtained by fermenting apple juice with fungi and bacteria. It can also help us regulate blood sugar levels and promote satiety.
6. Goat kefir
It is native to the Caucasus Mountains, where it has been consumed for centuries. It is obtained from the fermentation of goat's milk, which is generally much easier for humans to digest than cow's milk, making kefir a good option for those who are lactose intolerant. It has very beneficial properties for intestinal health.
7. Probiotic supplement
If you also want to add probiotics to your diet in an easy and delicious way, we suggest our Microbiotic Creamer . It contains probiotics, prebiotics (the food for these good bacteria that help us so much), and Lion's Mane (a fabulous mushroom for intestinal mucous membranes). All its ingredients are scientifically proven. You can mix it with your coffee or favorite drink at any time of day that suits you best.
Go ahead and incorporate them into your routine! Over time, you will notice the difference!
