I hear that ad on tv CONSTANTLY for those "fruit and veggie capsules"? Well, did you know you can get FERMENTED fruit and veggies from Dr. Mercola's site and they're a lot better for you and actually do your body much more good? Yep, that's the concensus. Fermented stuff is always good for the gut. I LOVE sauerkraut and now I know why. It's also why letting babies in a high chair suck on a pickle is good for them but you hafta watch them closely so they don't get too big a chunk off. I took my Claussen pickles and made very thin slices for the kids I watched in daycare for years and the mom's could not believe the difference in their poops and no stomach upsets and throwing up everything they ate all the time. I also recommended the Culturelle for babies to be added to their bottles, whether formula or breastmilk. Not all breastmilk agrees with babies but adding some fermentation helps a lot.
VERY GOOD FOR THE GUTS! And you know how painful it can be to watch a baby who has to struggle to poop, right? Owww! Adding Culturelle or acidophilus helps immensely.
Here's some basic info on fermentation:
Here are the ones I purchased (Dr. Mercola brand). They're also organic.
Here's the fruits:
Here's the veggies:
I think I purchased mine through Vitacost at a bit cheaper price and much faster delivery (at the time).
I put my "powders" into empty capsules myself and take them that way because honestly they taste AWFUL if you mix them into juice or water or whatever. I couldn't find a good "carrier" so I just make mine into capsules. I used the 00 capsules and take 2 per day of each. The fact that they are fermented is good and organic is always good!
