Donna Schwenk, founder of Cultured Food Life, shares the incredible healing power of fermented food.  Faced with her own health crisis and that of her infant daughter, she stumbled upon the idea of creating fermented vegetables and experienced an incredible vitality transformation. Feeling energetic and youthful, Donna is incredibly knowledgeable and conversational on this topic and generously shares tips for getting started. Fermented foods have historically been mainstays in every culture globally; our ancestors relied on these skills for food security and nutrition. The availability of home refrigeration and modern prepared foods have squelched this incredibly easy method to preserve food and increase the nutritional value as well as the beneficial probiotic microbes.  Check out Donna's blog, free recipes and best-selling books at www.culturedfoodlife.com. 

Our great grandmothers were usually knowledgeable and adept at fermenting foods, i.e., allowing microbes to grow on food, thereby keeping foods, such as vegetables, fruits, and meats, from spoiling while increasing the nutritional value of the food and providing you with beneficial probiotic microbes. They may not have appreciated these benefits, but surely at least knew that it was a useful method of preserving food without refrigeration. Modern processed foods, widespread availability of home refrigeration, and convenience caused most of us to abandon this practice. But it represents yet another mistake we've made in healthy eating, coupled with blundering dietary guidelines, exploitative practices, and ignorance or indifference of food manufacturers. Wife and mother, Donna Schwenk, struggled with health issues of her own and her family. Twenty two years ago, she stumbled on the idea of creating fermented vegetables. Adopting them into her lifestyle and that of her family, she witnessed transformations in health. Donna is a vocal advocate for the fermenting lifestyle and shares her wisdom in her culturedfoodlife.com website loaded with recipes and wisdom on how to put fermented foods to work to restore your emotional and physical health. In this episode of the Defiant Health podcast, Donna shares some of the most recent lessons she's learned through her fermenting projects. Learn about the surprising role of fermented vegetables in alleviating symptoms of SIBO and Candida overgrowth, as Donna details her daily fermentation routine. Be prepared to have your mind blown as Donna reveals her remarkable remedy for food poisoning, and even the surprising health benefits her dog has experienced! Beyond personal anecdotes, we delve into the controversial health topics, illuminating why some major health organizations haven't updated their advice despite new evidence, and the importance of strength training as we age.Wrap up the episode by exploring the tantalizing world of homemade cheese. Hear her recount the incredible potential of probiotic yeast and the lasting health benefits her family has experienced from a diet rich in fermented vegetables. Whether you're a fermented foods enthusiast or just embarking on your journey, this episode promises to be packed with nuggets of wisdom and fascinating insights. Tune in to be inspired and empowered with the knowledge to transform your health through food.For more from Donna Schwenk: CulturedFoodLife.com with lots of recipes, informative discussions, and products available for purchase._________________________________________________________________________Get your 15% Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, low-carb snack bars and other high-quality organic foods here.

Donna Schwenk is the creator and founder of Cultured Food Life. 13 years ago your life changed in a dramatic way..what happened? What were some of the problems you had with your health? One health protocol really started this change what was it? Kefir Micro biome We are 10 trillion cells of bacteria..only 1% is bad and the rest is either neutral or helpful 100 to one on cells and 1000 to one on genes…they are actually hosting us..we are way more bacteria than we are human Repairs cells…..makes serotonin… Ulcers Blood sugar antacids Journal ask questions and then leave it alone and the answer always comes for you Detox Paleo has become a very popular nutitional protocol and one of their tenants is that fat and in particular animal fat is not only OK but good for you. There seem to be lot of heavy weights on both the veggie side and animal side and there seems to be strong science for both arguments, it can get confusing… Is there a disconnect between traditional MDs and nutritional therapy?

Kriben Govender (Honours Degree in Food Science & Technology) and James Shadrach (Honours Degree in Psychology) have an entertaining and real conversation with home fermentation guru Donna Schwenk from Cultured Food Life on living the fermented foods life and mastering the holy trinity of fermented foods: Kefir, Kombucha and Fermented vegetables.   Bio:   Donna Schwenk’s world changed when she discovered cultured foods. After a difficult pregnancy and various health problems, she became determined to find answers to what ailed her. And in her quest, she came across the ancient art of home fermentation, a food preparation technique that supercharges everyday foods with beneficial bacteria to balance your digestive system, and vitamins and minerals to enhance your overall health. This simple, natural process has been used for thousands of years to create everything from drinks like kefir and kombucha to foods like kimchi and pickles.      After incorporating fermented foods into her life, Donna began to experience a vitality that she had never known. And then she was hooked! She started a new life as a teacher and writer, blogging on her website culturedfoodlife.com, in an effort to bring the beautiful world of fermented foods to as many people as possible. She now works with thousands of people to open the door to a world of foods that can help improve an array of health problems including high blood pressure, diabetes, allergies, acne, hypertension, asthma, and irritable bowel syndrome.     Topics discussed: Donna’s health issues and her discovery of kefir Book inspiration-  Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon https://www.nourishmeorganics.com.au/products/nourishing-traditions Donna Books   Cultured Food for Life https://www.nourishmeorganics.com.au/products/cultured-food-for-life   Cultured Food for Health https://www.nourishmeorganics.com.au/products/cultured-food-for-health   Cultured Food in a Jar https://www.amazon.com.au/Cultured-Food-Jar-Donna-Schwenk/dp/1401951260/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1550624041&sr=8-3   Donna’s favourite fermented food Transformation of food through fermentation Dairy and Non Dairy Kefir The Effects of Stopping Kefir consumption Transient bacteria in Kefir Hunger reduction with Kefir Health benefits of Kefir Blood glucose modulation with Kefir Fermentation explosions in the Kitchen Second Fermentation The best bottles to use for second fermentation Milk kefir - aerobic vs anaerobic (lid on vs lid off) Milk kefir: are metal strainers ok?
