Did you know that pickled and fermented foods are actually really good for you? Not only are they delicious but they’re packed full of minerals, vitamins and good bacteria.
Pickles have a high concentration of vitamins such as Vitamin K, Vitamin C and Vitamin A, this is due to water being drawn out of the pickles by the salty brine they are pickled in. Fermented foods like kimchi and sourdough bread are known for keeping your gut healthy.
