Kimchi’s superpowers

Kimchi is a spicy, fermented cabbage dish from Korea that often includes radish, carrot, onions, garlic, a touch of sugar and even seaweed. It delivers top-notch nutrition, keeps your gut biome happy, tamps down inflammation, improves blood pressure and reduces body fat. As a probiotic, it feeds good-for-you bacteria in your digestive tract, allowing them to help your body regulate blood sugar, maintain a healthy lining in your intestines, increase brain health, and keep your immune system working to protect you.

As a source of vitamins, 1 cup of kimchi delivers around 20% of the daily value for vitamins B6, folate, and riboflavin and 10% for niacin. One cup also delivers 60% of your daily value for vitamin C and 50% of the DV for vitamin A.

The fermentation also boosts kimchi’s health benefits by encouraging the formation of important nutrients: bioactive peptides that help fight chronic disease. Bioactive peptides are short-chain fatty acids that improve gut health, tamp down inflammation and boost brain health, and polysaccharides that are anti-tumor, immune system modifying, anti-diabetic and anti-viral.

If the spicy flavor of kimchi doesn’t appeal, try another fermented cabbage dish — sauerkraut. It delivers the same benefits — boosting the gut-brain axis and immune health and tamping down inflammation.
