10 Benefits of Kimchi
Benefit #4: Improves Digestion
One of kimchi’s best-known benefits is that it is a probiotic. This means that it contains a lot of healthy bacteria that are beneficial to our digestive system. These bacteria help us to digest our food and help to maintain healthy balances of bacteria in our digestive system.
One type of good gut bacterium in particular is lactobacillus, and kimchi has this in abundance. Levels of lactobacillus can sometimes decrease in our digestive system and kimchi is able to help us to replace it. Not only does this bacterium help us to digest our food, but it is also able to help fight off infections and other diseases.
