ALIVE VEGAN KIMCHI

Kimchi is a traditional Korean dish made with salted fermented vegetables. It typically contains cabbage and seasonings like salt, onions, garlic, ginger, and chili peppers.
Kimchi has an excellent nutritional profile. The dish is low in calories but packed with nutrients like iron, folate, and vitamins B6 and K.
The lacto-fermentation process that kimchi undergoes makes it particularly unique. Fermented foods not only have an extended shelf life but also an enhanced taste and aroma. Lacto-fermentation uses the bacterium Lactobacillus to break sugars down into lactic acid, which gives kimchi its characteristic sourness. Fermentation also creates an environment that allows other friendly bacteria to thrive and multiply. These include probiotics, which are live microorganisms that offer health benefits.
And a specific strain of Lactobacillus found in kimchi can boost your immune system. HDMPPA, an active compound in kimchi, play a large role in reducing inflammation. Probiotic-rich foods like kimchi may help prevent yeast infections, though research is in the early stages. And it can even aid in weight loss.

Ingredients:
White cabbage, spring onion, ginger, garlic, carrots, chilli flakes, hot pepper paste, sea salt.
