"K I M C H I, avo, red cabbage, carrot, cucumber and sprout rice paper rolls
Kimchi is a traditional cabbage based Korean dish which is fermented by probiotic lactic acid bacteria. Mention the word "probiotic" and it immediately brings products like yoghurt or Yakult to mind. However, fermented products like Kimchi and Sauerkraut are being re-discovered in the Western world for their probiotic benefits. Probiotic products contain live bacteria - some of which survives digestion and can have a beneficial effect on the friendly bacteria living in the digestive system. Clinical evidence currently links probiotics most strongly for the treatment of diarrhoea but suggests they have potential benefits in treating irritable bowel syndrome and supporting immune health. More recently (and interestingly!) studies are linking certain probiotics to psychiatric and psychological benefits.
