Fermented Sauerkraut and Breast Cancer
Sauerkraut is an incredible food. I teach people to make it at all my classes. It can be life changing along with kefir and kombucha and I’m pretty intense about it. It changed my life and I have watched it change thousands of other people too. I received three letters just this week from people who had different problems ranging from cancer, diabetes, high cholesterol, and chronic fatigue.. . .
