Probiotics

Best way to get probiotics naturally? (Vegan)

I went to a small talk the other day on 'how to thrive on a Vegan diet' and they outlined the importance of probiotics. It blew my mind to realise that your gut if fed correctly, will release more serotonin than your brain. Mind blown. 

I'm wondering what are the best ways to consume probiotics as close to nature as possible? 

Also she mentioned the importance of Algae oil? It's hard to distinguish BS for legit advice as so many people can complicate nutrition if they delve to far down the rabbit hole with it but I am interested in providing the body with optimum nutrition.

Yogurt/Kefir, Sauerkraut/Kimchi, Miso, Sourdough bread, Coconut products(especially yogurt), Fermented foods/veggies/olives or soy products in general are very good. Kombucha or Homemade Ginger ale are also great

@Michael569 Checkout Ahiflower Oil for SDA and higher conversion and also Hemp seeds because magnesium is said to significantly enhance conversion and hemp seeds have highest magnesium of any known food gram/gram and some other factors i can't remember at the top of my head are more efficient in converting over than Flax, Chia and others but then again the healthier we are the less we need and the more efficient and better conversion rates.

Based on what i remember 1 Tbsp of hemp seed oil or better 2-3 Tbsp of hemp seeds daily should be optimal but again its always best to experiment with both and see where and how you feel best.

@Michael569 Michael thanks so much for your reply. I'm interested to know why probiotics rub you up the wrong way? (I'm curious)

Thanks from your opinion really appreciate it.

little late reply but im currently listening to an elective at school about the importance of probiotics.

The ones listed as examples that were vegan are kombucha, beet kvass, sauerkraut (best one imo), olives, ...and suprisingly simple fruit and veggie juices contain probiotics too! Also its really important to combine Prebiotics with probiotics, because a prebiotic is food for the probiotic bacteria. If the bacteria doesnt have enough food it will be hard to survive all the way to your intestines. Some good prebiotic foods are garlic, leek asparagus, strawberries, and red wine

Fair enough@Michael569 I value your personal opinion as always. I mentally gather information from different sources and then make my own decision based on what I've read so thanks again ??

others beat me to it, but yeah fermented foods are great for natural bacterias

Tempeh is a fermented food as well!

Indeed. But what people usually forget is to flush first the guts, because in the majority of people they are full of parasites, from worms to bad bacteria.

So the best solution is taking Colloidal Silver every day a little, and replenishing with probiotics after. 

Once you've tried Colloidal Silver you will never want to take any pharmaceutical medication again, i can assure you
