I know, Michael. My digestion is much better. I still take the Custom Probiotics twice a day and the sauerkraut.

but so far so good!

I don't understand why my homemade sauerkraut makes me gassy- with really foul-smelling gas. The gas smells like a sulfur pit. Do you think it is the cabbage and that I'm heterozygous on CBS 699? (The sauerkraut is not rotten-and it tastes really good!!)

TNT, have you tried drinking Kefir?

That replaces gut bacteria and reduced gas for me.
I have not tried homemade saurkraut.

Thanks Carol,

I like kefir(homemade and store-bought), but my bowels have not been able to tolerate it for about a year. It makes my bowels loose. Though, I haven't tried it lately, so not sure how I would tolerate it.

I am on my second jar of my first successful batch of fermented veggies.

They are SO crunchy, so flavorful (I used dill) and slightly tangy.

I used green cabbage, fresh dill and about 6 billion cfu or renew life VS probiotics in each liter jar.

It is like joyous crunchy dill pickles, except with cabbage.

My favorite snack. I just have to be sure not to eat too much.

It also seems to be stimulating my appetite.

Fantastic, wish I had been eating the homemade veggies for years.

Very good, Greta!! I love the dill too!! I agree on wishing I'd been eating them all my life. I'm German and my mom did not carry on the tradition. Dang it.

I have 2 questions about fermented food and antibiotic. I am taking amoxicillen and probiotics. I was told that if I take the probiotics too close to the antibiotic the probiotics would cancel out the antibiotics. I have some kimchee fermenting and wonder if I need to make sure to eat it 2 hours after the antibiotic?

Ok another question. We make our own kraut but once it has fermented we heat it up and can it. Does that kill off all of the probiotic qualities of the kraut?

Just to give the fermented foods a head start, it might be good to take them away from the abx, but I suspect it is not a big issue. (?)

And yes, I believe heating them would kill out the good bacteria. The jars of sauerkraut should be fine in the refrigerator for about 6 months.

Thank you. I will eat some kimchee at lunch.

Next time we make kraut, some is going into the fridge before the rest gets canned. Last year my sister picked up a tray of cabbage plants for the garden. The same day our uncle brought home a tray of cabbage plants and our mom brought home a tray of cabbage plants. We had cabbage coming out our ears last year. Did not need to make any kraut this year.

A word of caution with fermented foods. If there is a chance you have SIBO, (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) eat with caution.

Excellent video about wild vs lacto fermenation. Also covers the histamine response to SIBO.

Thank you all for the valuable info.

Anyone here is drinking the juice of it?

What are you favorite veggies to ferment?

I am using broccoli, and even beet root (all raw), they do taste good.

Has anyone used Chinese cabbage? I just wonder if they will stand fermentation (specially the green parts...)
