Cabbage Rejuvelac Recipe

[Guest guest]

I have been told by a person whom takes this that it is highly

effective for those with digestive problems such as IBS plus the candida.

Definitely

a lot less expensive then buying expensive full spectrum probiotics.

Cabbage Rejuvelac Recipe

by Bee Wilder

Cabbage is a vegetable that is teeming with lactobacteria.

No starter is needed for making this rejuvelac.

Start one morning by blending together 1-3/4 cups distilled or purified water

plus 3 cups of coarsely chopped, loosely packed fresh cabbage. Start the

blender at low speed and then advance the blender to high speed and blend for 30

more seconds.

Pour into a jar (a quart jar is excellent to use), cover tightly (ensure

there is at least 1 inch of space above the mixture), and let it stand at room

temperature for 3 days.

After 3 days strain off the liquid rejuvelac and discard the cabbage. The

initial batch of cabbage rejuvelac takes 3 days to mature, but succeeding

batches

take 24 hours each.

Each morning after straining off the fresh rejuvelac, blend together 1-1/2

cups of distilled or purified water plus 3 cups of coarsely ground, loosely

packed fresh cabbage, for 30 seconds at high speed.

Pour it into a jar and add 1/4 cup of the fresh rejuvelac just strained off,

cover, shake, and let it stand at room temperature until the next morning.

Making Cabbage Rejuvelac without a Blender:

Cabbage rejuvelac can also be made without using a blender.

Chop up 2-1/2 cups of cabbage very fine (replacing the 3 cups in the recipe

above), with the same amount of water (1-3/4 cups).

Good quality rejuvelac tastes similar to a cross between carbonated water and

the whey obtained when making yogurt. Bad quality rejuvelac has a much more

putrid odour and taste and should not be consumed.

Avoid using tap water because chlorine will interfere with the production of

the bacteria. Boiling tap water for 30 minutes uncovered will remove chlorine.

Refrigerate rejuvelac if it is to be kept overnight. Discard any rejuvelac on

hand 24 hours after it is poured off the cabbage.

How to Take Rejuvelac

Drink each day's rejuvelac during the course of the day by taking 1/2 cup

three times per day, preferably with meals.

To implant a healthy population of lactobacteria in the intestinal tract take

rejuvelac for 1 to 3 months.

People who have candida are very sensitive to yeast so it is recommended they

make a new batch every time, but they could start 3 jars 3 days in a row so

they do not run out.
