Guest guest Posted August 26, 2002 Report Share Posted August 26, 2002 I have been reading my food list but can't find this. Is home made saurkraut out of the questions? There is no vinegar only salt and its own fermentation? I am trying to figure out how to preserve my cabbage so I can eat it later. in AK ____________________________________________________ IncrediMail - Email has finally evolved - Click Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 Hi, I just read another post in which the group moderator that it is ok to not take HCL or saurkraut if you don't have digestive problems. I don't have any digestive issues, heartburn etc though I love saurkraut so I have been eating it with meals. Does this mean I can go without the saurkraut since I don't have digestive issues? Is there a benefit to me continuing to eat it with meals anyway? (besides the fact that I like it) Thanks, Samia Geraghty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 Hello, If anyone is looking for a source of fantastic fermented vinegar free commercially made saurkraut and pickles then check out Bubbies. It is the best. www.bubbies.com I also found a company that makes fermented vegetables and salsas. Rejuvenative Foods www.rejuvenative.com These products are expensive but for those of us who work full time it is nice to have some good foods that are already prepared.

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 How about the red cabbage kraut? I thought fermenting bacteria would reduce the sugars in beets and carrots. Lactose to lactic acid. > > > > This kraut is better than Bubbies. > > http://www.realpickles.com/index.html > > They also have fermented beets and carrots > > > +++Hi there. > > Of course beets and carrots are not on this diet. > > Bee > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 > > How about the red cabbage kraut? > I thought fermenting bacteria would reduce the sugars in beets and carrots. Lactose to lactic acid. +++Hi , Lactose is the kind of sugar found in dairy products, but it is not in vegetables. It is true that fermenting dairy products lowers lactose but at the same time it changes lactose into another sugar called galatose so that's why I recommend butter and no other dairy products. The rule about lactose in dairy products is: The higher the butterfat content the lower the lactose, so butter has very tiny amounts. Also the butterfat content in dairy products helps our bodies digest lactose and proteins in dairy products. Beets and carrots do not contain lactose and they are high in other sugars compared to vegetables allowed on my program like cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, etc. Remember that all carbs feed candida but it is impractical to eliminate them all, so that's why each of the allowed carbs on my program are low in sugars. It is okay to ferment carbs low in sugars, but not carrots, beets, and other vegetables that are high in sugars or starches. Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 What about buttermilk? I also noticed on the special " My Big Fat Diet " that they ate Cream. You don't allow these on your diet....for what reason may I ask? Gail > > > > How about the red cabbage kraut? > > I thought fermenting bacteria would reduce the sugars in beets and carrots.

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 Hi Gail, Cream and other dairy products (other than butter) are too high in carbs for us.

Are you recommending it or should we stay away from it? +++Hi , Sauerkraut may be a problem too, but I originally wrote that Cabbage Rejuvelac is a problem for tooth enamel since one of our members reported it. I think you should stay away from it, since it could be a problem for tooth enamel just like Cabbage Rejuvelac. Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
