How To Make Raw Cultured Vegetables

Learn how to make delicious cultured vegetables in your own kitchen to boost immunity through natural probiotics. Based on techniques learned from Donna Gates and the Body Ecology Diet, cultured vegetables as part of your lifestyle can help you lose weight, and regain your body's natural internal ecosystem.

If you do not have a culture starter, you can massage a couple of tablespoons of salt into your vegetables before placing them into jars. Or as Sally Fallon suggests in her book, Nourishing Traditions, you can use one tablespoon of whey and one tablespoon of salt. Vegetable culture starter can be found on at www.bodyecology.com. Or you can start out, as I have done here, using a packaged kefir starter from your local health food store. The Yogourmet brand costs around $7 for a package of 12 starters. Regardless of what you use, I still recommend creating a brine to use for your spices and liquid.

Hey!!! Great viedo. I just made home made cultured vegetables (cabage, kale and carrots with the juice) in a kind of big recipient, not huge. I added one tablespoon of salt and one tablespoon of whey, for i don´t have Donna Gates´culture starter. Do I need to add more whey? How will I know if the vegetables are fermented or gonne wrong? Please Help!!! Thanks!!!

@leparditas Yes, yes, all of these: detox, positive thoughts, support groups, clean enviro, fasting WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT HER TO COVER? Give me a brake Leparditas, she covers wha she is great at. Her forte is her kitchen and others can benefit from her sharing. What did you share, how did you inspire others, how did they benefit from your sharing of your sport experiences? Not much, aaahh thought so...

I actually have to say hats off to this because unlike Donna Gates videos (which I could not get thru) you are radiating enthusiasm, health and ENERGY which clearly shows this is working for you. You don't look like you are going to fall asleep ;-) Thanks for taking the time to share!

Bunny, watching your video just made me what to keep pushing the forward button, which I did. I think you're trying too hard. Stick to fermenting vegetables and avoid all the personal information. Not interested!!
