Overview

This book is a great introduction to probiotic foods for both Paleo and non-Paleo dieters. Traditionally, the human diet consisted of fresh foods in their natural form, free of harmful chemicals, pesticides and processed flours and sugars. Pretty much every food we ate was packed full of probiotic bacteria that helped balance the bacteria levels in the stomach and small intestines. These probiotic foods don't just promote good gut health, they free up the immune system to dedicate resources to other areas of the body, leaving you healthier and happier as a result. Probiotic foods are living foods teeming with beneficial bacteria. Your body needs these bacteria to thrive. Fermented foods and beverages are natural sources of probiotic bacteria that can be eaten to resupply the body with the bacteria it needs.
