Blog advertising

I have had this topic on my mind for quite a while since I have had to turn down a couple of companies that pretty many bloggers have been advertising. Why? Since outside of the blogsphere, those companies have a *horrible* reputation and they are known of scams and frauds. Taking the payment from the card twice and not refunding, providing a fake tracking number and *surprise* the order never arrives, not replying to the mails, hanging up the phone when calling to the customer service etc etc fun! All that can be found written by ordinary customers on the companies Facebook pages (I really wonder that they don't delete since the page is full of those comments) and around the internet shop review pages. #The policy of blog advertising

Fermented foods are becoming more popular in Chinese culture fermented soy products, Korean and Japanese such as tempeh and Kimchee are dieting. In fact the unique exhibition which get many Americans in fermented food is, if they eat a container of yogurt with active cultures, but this is changing rapidly.

Fermented products are becoming increasingly popular fermented prepared mushrooms and kefir, fermented milk drink, including fermented beverages like Kombucha, a drink out. Fermented foods are more health food and beverage stores because of the health benefits they offer.

What are the benefits of fermented foods?

Fermented foods and beverages are good for you one of the reasons is by natural probiotics that contain them. Probiotics are "good bacteria", to keep the bacteria that cause diseases at the Bay, compete for the same resources. There is only so much space in the intestinal bacteria, and if the good step, displace the poor. Unfortunately, most of the people not get many natural probiotics in your diet, the food of the Western diet. That is changing as yoghurt and other fermented foods growing in popularity.

Some studies show that these friendly bacteria provide more resistance to infections. In addition, they offer potential advantages for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome, some types of diarrhea and to prevent vaginal infections.

Anti-nutrients to reduce the fermentation of food

Another advantage for the fermentation of foods, especially soybean, is that inactive antinutrients to block the absorption of minerals from the foods you eat. Soy contains phytates, connections, to reduce the absorption of minerals such as iron, zinc and calcium in the gut. Phytate in soy fermentation, inactivated to eat a healthier soybean.

Examples of fermented soy products can be purchased at natural food markets, miso and tempeh. She enjoyed a cup of soup of miso in a Japanese restaurant and did not realize that good works to his intestine. Believe me - the intestines would like to thank him, if they could.

More examples of probiotic foods include sauerkraut, fermented kimchi (fermented cabbage), cheese, and soy sauce. As well as fermented food, they can keep your gut with probiotic drinks and Kombucha and kefir.

Kefir is a beverage rich in probiotics, which is the fine consistency of yoghurt and is available in several flavors in natural food markets. It has a slightly sour taste like yogurt, but it may be mixed with fresh fruits for a sweet taste. You can even your own kefir at home.

Kombucha is gas and has a somewhat bitter taste. Some companies that produce as synergy add flavors such as lemon, peach and blueberries in it, to give it more attractive. How to get, some I don't like to try when first but after drinking a couple of times, your carbonated shower for some addictive.
