Eat fermented! Fermented foods act as a probiotic to facilitate your digestion. They contain more nutrient and strengthen your microbiome. To create fermentation, add salt to your vegetable, leave to sweat for at least an hour, then transfer to a closed pot to limit the contact with oxygen. Leave to ferment for several days.
