Fermenting what exactly is that? That’s a good question. For me now very normal but perhaps a bit of a mystery to you.
Fermenting is not something we do, microorganisms do that. With the help of fibers (prebiotics) from fruits, vegetables and legumes, microorganisms make substances such as natural antibiotics, short chain fatty acids and vitamins. This process is called fermentation.
Microorganisms are everywhere. On everything that lives in nature, in the air, water on animals, people and objects.

You can influence the composition of your microbiome by what you eat. If you eat a lot of fruit and vegetables, micro-organisms will develop that live on fruit and vegetables.
Refuel with the things that your body can use well. I really like green smoothies. After drinking them I feel completely fit again.
