Adding live cultures for a healthier diet
Want to eat healthier food but not sure how? Adding fermented foods to your diet can be daunting but Hayley Barisa Ryczek’s new book, Fermented Foods At Every Meal can help.
In the book, Hayley uses the top 10 live-culture foods to make quick and easy recipes. Fermented foods like yoghurt, sauerkraut and kombucha nourish our bodies with probiotics. Although we should be incorporating fermented ingredients into our diet, many people are not sure how to eat them on a daily basis.
Why fermented foods are so good for you
Each chapter introduces a core food and teaches readers how to make it at home, then offers 10 ways to use each one. Hayley is the voice behind the healthy cooking and natural lifestyle blog, Health Starts in the Kitchen. After a diagnosis of Celiac disease in 2010, Hayley eliminated grains, gluten and legumes from her diet and set up a blog to help others enjoy a traditional, real-food diet. She became a Holistic Health coach certified by the Institute of Integrative Nutrition in 2012.
