Ingredients:

Kimchi: Kimchi is full of beta-carotene and other antioxidants. It’s also a great source of vitamins A, C, and K, plus folate, potassium, and calcium.

Ramen Noodles: Ramen noodles don’t actually have a ton of health benefits, which isn’t really surprising, but they do have iron, B vitamins, and manganese. So that’s something!

Probiotics: Did you know that it’s a myth that kimchi is a probiotic? Kimchi, along with other fermented foods like sauerkraut, and kombucha contain live and active cultures but they are not necessarily packed with probiotics. The live organisms in these products have one purpose and that’s to perform the fermentation and not necessarily to provide the health benefits that a probiotic would. That’s why I love to incorporate Seed DS-01™ Daily Synbiotic to my daily routine. This 2-in-1 capsule is both a prebiotic and probiotic (with 24 probiotic strains) which helps with my gastro and overall health.
