Friends, let me introduce you to my brand new Digital Recipe book, Plant-Based Firmets.

15. Must-Have Recipes that will take your fermented food game to the next level, nourishing

your microbiome and saving you dollars on your grocery bill at the same time.

Why eat fermented foods? Well, research shows that regular consumption of fermented foods

lowers inflammation in the body. The type of inflammation that underpins and exacerbates

chronic conditions like cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer's dementia. Inside Plant-Based

Firmets is 15 recipes, including my very own soy yogurt and soy labne. A delicious

cold brew, kefir smoothie, and my baked miso egg plant and soba noodle salad. The book

also includes science supporting the consumption of fermented foods and a handful of frequently

asked questions such as do fermented foods contain alcohol and what's the difference

between pickled and fermented foods. To support your gut, this show and my wonderful

team here at the proof, get your copy of Plant-Based Firmets at theproof.com-fordslash-firmets.

When you turn vegan, what you're referring to is a lifestyle that aims to minimise harm

to other sentient beings and animals. When you're talking about plant-based diets, there's

loads of reasons why people would eat plant-based and they're not all going to be vegan. In terms

of the scientific data, it tends to refer to a way of eating that almost exclusively

fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes, herb spices, nuts and seeds. As long as the

vast majority of what you're eating is more of a whole food plant-based pattern, then

you're hopefully going to get those health benefits. That's Dr. Gemman Newman and this is

theproof podcast.

Hi friends. Great to be back with you. Hope you are doing well, keeping fit and healthy
