Publisher's Synopsis
The modern diet is based on highly-processed and refrigerated foods, and this has brought with it a huge downside: the elimination of amazing probiotic foods, filled with helpful bacteria, like kimchi. This change has wreaked havoc on our internal gut biome, leading to weight gain, increased inflammation, lower immunity, and even emotional distress.Enter the ancient Korean wonder food: kimchi, a simple dish of fermented vegetables (including cucumbers, mustard greens, cabbage and more) that can be incorporated into any diet-keto, paleo, vegan, and more. This isn't about starvation, deprivation, or an extreme eating plan-it's about adding one single food and watching your body transform!The Kimchi Diet walks you through an eight-week, step-by-step plan to make, ferment, and store kimchi in your own home, giving you all the health benefits of this plant-based food and its powerful probiotic content. Even for those who have never tried kimchi, the book details amazing, mouthwatering recipes-in spicy and non-spicy versions-that can all be made with very little prep time and no cooking. Just chop, salt, mix, and store!Furthermore, this book details the slew of recent scientific studies that reveal why making and eating kimchi with your family is one of the single best things you can do for your health, especially for anyone concerned with obesity, diabetes, anxiety, cancer prevention, heart disease, and more.
