@@pamelareynaud8502 High amounts may affect the thyroid Some evidence suggests that consuming cabbage in high amounts may affect your thyroid. Substances called goitrogens in cabbage can inhibit iodine transport to the thyroid, a process necessary for normal thyroid function. In fact, a few studies have noted a correlation between cruciferous vegetable intake and the risk of thyroid cancer, although the results were somewhat inconclusive. Furthermore, goitrogens are found in higher amounts in raw cabbage, so those with thyroid conditions, such as hypothyroidism, may choose to avoid consuming cabbage juice. However, a significant amount of research on cruciferous vegetables and disease prevention suggests that the benefits may outweigh the potential risks. Koreans and germans consume cabbage a lot by the way. I suggest you to check your Iodine level regularly if it's the case for you.

Sauerkraut is fermented cabbage. I am Pennsylvania Dutch and as a child I could smell it at dinner time from every house on the street. It is eaten daily. I like the Bavarian type as it is not so sour.

grandparents grew up during the great depression. They always had saurkraut or potatoes. They lived past a lot of doctors expectations and foods like this is proof that eating healthy is great for you at the end of your life cycle.

Another similar superfood is Korean Kim Chi. It's fermented Napa cabbage, garlic, peppers, and a couple other simple ingredients. It has a powerful aroma, so unless you're in Korea, you may have people giving you funny looks if you're in a public place right after eating some. It's delicious, and it makes you feel great. I crave it, and have some for dinner almost every day.

I love sauerkraut. It’s lovely when food tastes good and is good for your body ❤️. Ty Dr. Berg.

Soooo easy to make! Lactose fermented carrots, peppers, garlic also yummy and very easy. Water (no chlorine please) and salt (no iodine!) and a large jar with a weight to keep the veg under the brine. Top the mix with a cabbage leaf, weight down with a glass weigh (I use a small jar filled with brine and a plastic jar lid, like a mayo lid, no metal please) set it on the counter, covered, and "burp" it every day by pushing it down with a wooden spoon to get the bubbles out. Make sure the veg is still covered with the salt water, if not add more brine. In 5 to 10 days it is ready for the fridge and eating! It ferments slower in cold temp and in hotter weather it is much faster so 5-10 days or when you are happy with the flavor. I pack mine into big "pickle jars" that I save up, and keep a quart jar filled from that. The big jar in the back of the fridge and the small one in front. Ditto for my kraut and also my garlic dill pickles. Lots of recipes on KZread, just do a search! Tomorrow I start a 4 pound batch of baby carrots with peppers, garlic, etc. added into the mix.

I started combining sauerkraut and kefir eating them at almost the same time. My Crohn's symptoms are alleviated 10-fold (whatever one can consider a fold), basically vanished if taken regularly throughout a single day, though even after the first time there's an extreme decrease in pain. I think it's the combination, especially maybe if sauerkraut is prebiotic. (This could be from me using an antibiotic, before stopping and then eating this combination, rather than believing this would help someone with "an infection" feel better; or maybe it always works.) I also started eating pretty much exclusively grass fed organic beef for meat, which isn't even that expensive at Wal-Mart Neighborhood Markets. This helps a lot, too. Each of these definitely help in their own way.

My parents came from a pretty solid German family even though they’ve been in America for several generations. My Mom was a good cook but she basically cooked what her and my Father liked. So me being born I 1946 I got see and eat it all during my younger years. Those were the days that if you didn’t eat what was put on the table then you got hungry. I remember just once not liking what was cooked by my Mom and later on my Father warned me that if either of us hurt Mom’s feelings it wouldn’t work out well for everyone in the house. So I might not have liked some of the things that were served but I ate them just to keep Mom happy and to this day I still eat some of those same dishes that I didn’t like when I was a kid.

@@nomorenews My Dad made sauerkraut every fall. Had a good size crock along with a manual cabbage slicer which went over the crock. Would slice a couple inches of cabbage then sprinkle with salt and every once in a while would punch down. Continue until about 8" from top. Punch down put a good size round dish on top and cover with clean clothe over top. Keep eye on it and remove sort of gooey stuff that rises to the top. Don't remember how long it took at least several weeks maybe more. It was the best because had a little less salt than store bought and was delicious. Often had leg of lamb mashed potatoes and sauerkraut for Sunday Dinner.

Ps. Forgot put large clean rock on top of plate to weigh it down.

When I leaved in Europe, we were making sauerkraut at home so I know how all process look like,... Now I live in USA... And I noticed some companies are using vinegar to make cabbage sour... I am eating a lot of sauerkraut but I'm buying in European stores.... Sir you have a great videos!!!!!

I started eating my sauerkraut today 28 January 2022 that I prepared on 14 January. waaooo awesome. And I am going to prepare another one so that in two weeks time I move on to the next jar. Thank you for sharing this useful information. I used to cook cabbage or do salads but this is the best recipe of using cabbage.

We LOVE sauerkraut! I grew up with my grandparents making it. It is VERY good! Thank you!

I get a lot of helpful information from your channel because you present in such a clear manner. Don't several of these benefits of sauerkraut (eg Vitamin C and probiotics) only apply to non-pasturized sauerkraut, ie the stuff sold in most grocery stores?

I love sauerkraut. When I was a child a usrd to drink the juice resulted from the fermentation process. Is amazing.

I looooove sauerkraut! I tend to buy it in the bag in the refrigerator section at the grocery store. I love using it as a topping/dressing for my salad 🥗...it’s a natural vinaigrette and it beats having to use dressings with a ton of ingredients.

Spoiled me for fresh veggies as I cannot enjoy tomato 🍅 s from the supermarket or corn if it isn't picked that day.

Love your podcasts. Have learnt so much about health. Thank you.

I had difficulty sleeping due to digestive issues for about a year (possibly SIBO) and used intermittent fasting to give the gallbladder a chance to produce bile for cleansing the small intestine, as Dr Berg suggested. More recently as conditions improved I introduced sauerkraut into my daily diet and feel that it's helping produce healthier bowel movements. Great video!

As long as I don't accidently consume cheese( like ground cheese in plant burger patty,that I ate everyday for a week unkowingly) then I have 0 arthritis pain in my hips..and feel amazing. However the last month I started consuming about a cup or more daily of fermented kraut. I feel so good! I have so much energy and I run circles around all the 20 somethings at work. The only thing different is more kraut. Also to be transparent, I've not been taking my vitamins , like maybe once a week I'll remember..not sure which change is helping me.. But I feel great.and a side note: I have for 3 years eaten probably 1/4 cup of fermented cabbage daily. It's just now, since I eat around a whole cup that this huge surge of energy is happening.

Apparently I don’t consume too much salt if I need more to prevent those symptoms. I think it may be an adrenal issue.

I highly recommend Bubbies brand. Its neither raw or pasteurized and is made with artesian well water. Which is rich in trace minerals. I have felt alot better overall after consuming this everyday for a couple months straight now. My hemorrhoids have gone away and I dont have indigestion or heartburn anymore. It's really great stuff imo. Also its probably a really great thing to consume everyday while going through this covid-19 thing. It's one of the best things you can consume to boost your immune system.

I too recommend Bubbies if you have to buy it -- but it's at least ten times as expensive as making it yourself. Sauerkraut is the cheapest and easiest vegetable to ferment at home (and even cheaper if you grow your own cabbage). It's literally just cabbage, salt, and nature does the rest (you can of course add various flavoring ingredients like caraway seeds). Honestly, just give home fermentation a try!
