Healthy Foods that Have Been Fermented




 

3.Warding Off Heart Disease
It’s possible that fermented foods can help you stay clear of heart disease. A study done in Finland found that people who eat low-fat fermented dairy — less than 3.5% fat — had a much lower risk than people who ate other types of dairy or high-fat fermented foods. Research from Sweden and the Netherlands also found this benefit.

 

4.Help for High Blood Pressure
You can lower your chances of high blood pressure by eating fermented foods. Top choices are soy foods, like miso and natto. Fermented dairy with multiple strains of helpful bacteria and yeast is also good. They help block an enzyme that has a connection to raising blood pressure. If your blood pressure is already high, eating fermented foods regularly can shave a few points off both the systolic and diastolic readings.
