Hannah Crum joined us today from KombuchaKamp.com. What a fun show this was. It’s was such a joy to speak with someone who is as passionate about their work as I am. Kate really enjoyed her too.

Hannah came on the show to talk about the importance of eating bacteria rich foods. She’s a huge fan of making kefir, sauerkraut but she’s most passionate about brewing and teaching people how to ferment kombucha.

She shared with Kate and I how she got started making this wonderful drink. She now runs an entire business making videos, selling products like continuous brew kits, scobys (symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast), teas and warming strips and so much more. She also works with people one on one and she also runs a thriving community on her website to give support on making this amazing beverage.

She gives some wonderful tips on how to make kombucha fizzy with lots of carbonation and bubbles. What fruits tends to produce the most amount of fizz. She also talks about why bacteria is so important.

In my opinion, one of the reasons why people often come down with colds, skin rashes, flus, and even major diseases is because they don’t have enough beneficial micro flora in their intestines.

The seat of our immune system (some say as much as 80%!) is the bacteria in our guts. Have a wide variety of healthy microbes in our intestinal tract not only provides us with a way to fight off sickness and disease but these little critters actually digest our food for us too.

What the metabolize is what gets passed through the villi on the inside of our colon walls that actually passes into our blood stream. So not having good bacteria in our bodies is going to be very harmful to us in the long term.

These bacteria are absolutely critical for life to exist on this planet. The problem is that we as a culture eat foods that feed bad bacteria (think: sugar, white flour, pastas, breads etc) and the delicate balance becomes out of harmony and all kinds of health problems arise as a result.

So it’s critical you eat lots of fermented foods like sauerkraut, kombucha, kefir (water and milk), miso and other types of fermented vegetables.

Drinking kombucha ever single day can literally change your life. It is THAT powerful of a food. So make sure to start small and slowly over time increase your dose daily. It will clean you out!
