Zymurgy—What?
Recently a reader made a comment on this blog mentioning that she ferments some of her food and is quite healthy and fit. Ironically, it was just a few days prior to that comment that I was first exposed to food fermentation for nutritional purposes. Having heard of this process from a scientist/doctor that I highly respect, I knew I had to do more research on the topic. After all, I’m all about being as medically independent as possible. If there’s one more arrow in my quiver in favor of health that doesn’t rely on pills and surgery, I’m all for it. I enjoyed what I’ve learned and thought it merited sharing with all of you.
Up until about a week ago, the only “food” that I knew of being fermented was beer. Boy, were my eyes opened; never considering beer as a health food, it wasn’t exactly on my radar.
