fermentation helps in breakdown of the products very easily better absorption feeds the good gut bacteria which in turn is beneficial for our health to prevent chronic diseases like obesity number one on the list is dla dla is prepared by soaking rice and lentils like Chad Dal then they are grounded to a batter and fermented overnight the overnight fermentation process is the key which is

previously fermented products packed with beneficial bacteria this fermented Bamboo shoe dish Corissa will help in digestion the only connection that my friend SAR has with bamboo is that he watches

extract fresh coconut milk from raw coconut and mix it with a plant species called Garcinia Inda also called as cokum you use garlic cumin seeds and other spices and grind it together the probiotic content in this traditional drink promotes gut health you have to be a little bit careful in the amount of coconut milk because even though it has healthy fats it is rich in calories my loyal

ragi kji whenever I get a chance I try to include that in diet let me know whether you have tried this beautiful dish before if not check out the link in the description for a video of how to make it the last super food my favorite superfood is Dosa Dosa like any other fermented food is rich in microorganisms rich in probiotics which will aid in digestion and promote good gut bacteria in fact wheat Dosa made from fermented vat batter is another excellent source of probiotics but the problem nowadays is they are adding so many things inside the Dosa except for the bacteria they're adding lots of ghee Oreo biscuit charcoal Dosa rasula Dosa the ghee roast is made so long that if it is placed on the plate of my friend saravanakumar in Tamil Nadu my friend abijit chakraborti from Bengal can eat it and people pull so much oil like hypertension swaha diabetes swaha obesity swaha homade dosas moderation in oil and number of dosas is the key my loyal subscriber subani records a video of a live Dosa in a marriage ceremony and watches it later as highlights when he's fasting let me know how many dosas you usually eat depending upon the size of the Dosa I always tell my patients that add lots of vegetables add lots of fibers along with Dosa so that you can decrease the number of dosas and you can increase the number of vegetables these are all my favorite fermented foods let me know which one you have tried which one you're going to try which video you're going to watch from the recipe link bottom line is any kind of fermented food is going to make your gut happy remember
