Probiotika och magbakterier för en hälsosam mage

Probiotics and gut bacteria for a healthy stomach

Digestion is our absolutely most important function when it comes to long-term health. Taking care of your stomach is an investment for life that we all deserve. Who wants a bloated stomach, gas, stomach pain, constipation, or diarrhea? We all want a functioning gut and nutrient absorption so we can get optimal energy from our food. We believe that healthy gut bacteria are among the most important supplements to choose. We see it as a foundation for everyone. Probiotics are good bacteria responsible for nutrient absorption and supporting the immune system. It is up to us to support and nourish this world of microbes through what we eat, what we expose ourselves to in our environment, and the type of lifestyle we lead. In the past, we naturally got good gut bacteria from healthy soil. But today, due to harmful farming methods, our food contains little or no probiotics at all, and most foods today also contain toxins that can harm the good bacteria in our bodies. Therefore, one of the best ways to promote gut health is to "replant" helpful bacteria through high-quality probiotic products. It is also very beneficial to eat fermented products such as sauerkraut and to avoid the three biggest factors working against our gut health: exposure to toxic substances, unhealthy diet, and stress. It is easy for the gut microbiome to become unbalanced, which can have very negative effects on digestion and our overall sense of well-being. If we do not have enough probiotics, we are more susceptible to digestive problems, skin issues, candida, autoimmune diseases, as well as frequent colds and flu. By adding more probiotic foods to your diet, you can experience the following health benefits: Stronger immune system. Better digestion. Increased well-being. More energy from more efficient production of vitamin B12. Better breath because probiotics counteract candida. Healthier skin, as probiotics improve eczema and psoriasis. Less susceptibility to colds and flu. Support for leaky gut and inflammatory bowel diseases. Weight loss. One way to support the stomach is to make your own yogurt; we choose a plant-based yogurt made from cashew nuts.

Naturligt keltiskt havssalt rikt på mineraler

Natural Celtic sea salt rich in minerals

When choosing salt, we believe you should choose the best: salt that provides minerals and trace elements – without additives and anti-caking agents. And we promise, we do not want to consume anti-caking agents. All the salt we sell is completely natural and free from unnecessary additives. We have received fantastic new varieties of salt from Selina Naturally, who also produce the immensely popular gray, semi-moist, coarse-grained Celtic salt. Celtic Sea Salt Gourmet Seaweed Seasoning The base of the salt consists of finely ground Celtic salt mixed with four different organic and wild-harvested sea plants/seaweeds; Dulse, Kelp, Wakame, and Kombu, as well as red shiso, garlic, onion, and lemon. Celtic Sea Salt is an unprocessed salt that is hand-harvested. It is dried in the sun and wind, which helps it retain the sea’s moisture as well as all the important minerals and trace elements naturally found in salt. The seaweed ensures the salt contains iodine. The perfect blend gives a very rich Umami flavor. What does Rahima think? This salt is wonderful both on salads, vegetables, quinoa... yes, I think it works on almost everything. I’m a real salt enthusiast and often think about not eating too much. But since I like salt, I want the best. That’s where all the salts from Selina Naturally come in. I like all their salts. This was a perfect combination in flavor, and the seaweed really adds that little extra without overpowering with a “seaweed taste.” I don’t think synthetic iodine in regular table salt is a good idea for our health, but that’s another discussion. So getting iodine from seaweed or a good supplement is a better option... Here, the seaweed provides exactly that. The right amount is released when you sprinkle the salt. Makai Pure Deep Sea Salt A salt for true salt lovers… The salt is taken from more than 600 meters below the sea surface. It is harvested from areas with deep underwater currents that move very slowly and rarely reach the surface. The seawater is transported to enclosed salt houses and allowed to dry naturally with the help of solar heat. The harvesting method is completely free from mechanical and chemical bleaching. The crystals of Makai salt are hand-harvested, inspected, and cleaned by hand, actually with tweezers, to exact standards. Slow evaporation aided by the strong sun creates ideal conditions for the characteristic, pure white Makai crystals to form. They are gently scooped into wooden molds where remaining moisture drains from the salt. The salt is then packaged by hand. The salt has a fine, delicate salty flavor that almost turns sweet. It is a gourmet salt worth trying and contains less sodium than other salts. Makai contains 0.4 grams of sodium per serving compared to 0.6 grams in table salt. What does Rahima think? Wow, it’s fantastic, it’s very salty, yet smooth in flavor and sweet. You can take a piece like candy directly in your mouth (if you like salt). I think this salt works well on everything, even on chocolate desserts, I imagine. I haven’t tried that yet. It is coarse-grained (flake salt), so if you want to grind it, a nice mortar is a good option. I like mortars; they look nice, bring out the flavor in spices, and you feel so professional in the kitchen when you crush spices…=)
