Guest guest Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 I've tried and tried to read everything I could, past messages, my own research, and I can't figure this one out. It seems like we can eat mold and yeast if it is in a lacto-fermented product, but I'm confused what makes this is okay. I have been reading about making your own rejuvelac, sauerkraut, and raw apple cider vinegar, and I'm seeing lots of experience of mold even in homemade, and with the ACV they are using yeast to make it. I know you can't make mold healthy even if you boil it. So what is it in the lacto fermentation process that neutralizes the mold and the yeast so we can eat it? I'm sure the answer is simple, I just can't find it. Joanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are totally different than foods that mold or rot and yeasty-type foods like breads and pastries. To understand fermented foods see this article: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/foods28.php Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
