Guest guest Posted March 14, 2006 Report Posted March 14, 2006 I still have a hard time understanding how fermenting can be good - I know the live cultures may be beneficial to our digestive systems, but isn't the food itself kinda rotten?! -Tiffany kefir_king <kefir_king wrote: here is an album of all my fermented goodies which include: Saur Kraut Gerkins + Dill Soya (Miso) Garlic Ginger Fermented Vegies http://pg.photos./ph/kefir_king/slideshow2?.dir=94c0 & .beg=0 & .sr c=ph Quote
Guest guest Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 Funny you should say that. It was exactly what I was thinking. I do know it wouldn't grow if you planted it so it isn't exactly " living food " . I know fermented foods can add flavor but I don't know if that's a good argument for eating them.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 definition of living food is that it has the Enzymes intact..its the enzymes that make a biological system a living system. Fermented foods are still enzyme rich and their enzymes have not been depleted. Plus all the primary materials , carbs, proteins etc have been broken down by the action of bacteria to simpler sugars and amino acids..so they are pre-digested foods.. cheers jerushy1944 <no_reply > wrote: Funny you should say that.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 All I know is that Ann Wigmore set great store by fermented foods, such as rejuvelac and nut and seed cheeses, and sauerkraut. That's good enough for me. Margaret rawfood , jerushy1944 <no_reply wrote: > > Funny you should say that. It was exactly what I was thinking.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 I thought that was the current definition of " raw " food. " Living " food is one that will grow if planted. A carrot top will sprout if put in water but it won't grow if it's blended or juiced but it's still raw. I know this is splitting hairs. Or enzymes?
