RE: Water Kefir Drinking Vinegar Goodness!
Ohhh great... i think if i have to pick a favourite right now it would be water kefir... however my teacher at the Fermentationist Certification Programme (which i am yet to learn a lot from !! ) believes that probiotic foods are best taken in small amounts with each meal and very varied..i.e. many different ferments throughout the day and in small amounts - obviously this gets you most variety in bacteria... will be posting loads more as i continue learning. Nice to meet you @artedellavita
@phytosophia Fermentationist Certification Programme sounds amazing! I love both kombucha and water Kefir, however, I was careless in my kombucha drinking. It was a busy 2 years in the midst of moving out of state and being pregnant & then tending to a newborn (&3 more kids)while living in a travel trailer for 18 months. I would often drink kombucha with breakfast and dinner, then immediately brush my teeth. I damaged the enamel of my teeth horribly, beyond the point of remineralization. I just never thought about it until it was too late. I still love fermented drinks. In fact, my family loves water kefir I just encourage kombucha (and coffee) drinkers to swish with water to avoid my mistake.
Yes acidic drinks can do that to you! I only drink kombucha and kefirs in the warmer months and different types of probiotic food during cooler months. Oh how I love fermented foods!
We've made simple fermented carrot sticks and broccoli stem matchsticks and the kids just love them! So good! I'm a little obsessed with Wildbrine's new fermented hotsauces.
