10 Foods Good for Digestion
Digestive Food #7: Kimchi
Kimchi also contains gut-friendly bacteria, similar to that of yogurt. The fermentation process of the cabbage develops probiotics that promote gut health. The glucose in the cabbage allows probiotics to thrive and produce the kimchi. It also contains ginger, red pepper, salt and garlic, which helps make kimchi safe from unhealthy bacteria. It also boosts our immune system by lowering inflammation and exhibits anti-carcinogenic effects on our bodies.
Kimchi also contains fiber, which helps with the peristalsis of the intestines, aiding in digestion and bowel movements. Eating kimchi can help treat constipation, irritable bowel syndrome and ulcers when eaten in moderation.
