So what really is the difference?
Lacto fermented vegetables are filled with probiotics that help our gut digest and assimilate our food
Lacto fermented foods are raw and without any chemicals added

The world we live in is filled with way too many toxins. They are found in our food, our environment and just about everywhere we go.

One of my go to recipes all year, but especially as it gets cooler here in the east. It's a great soup to help balance your hormones, give you easy to digest protein and tons of vegetables. Toss a little parmesan cheese on for a change, throw some rice in, serve with a kale salad and you have a delicious meal.
Enjoy!
