Sauerkraut, kimchi, tempeh, miso, and cultured plant yogurts sit at the intersection of tradition and modern gut-health interest. Fermentation transforms plant foods in ways worth having — new flavors, live microbes, and sometimes improved digestibility — but the marketing around "gut healing" runs well ahead of the research. A plant-based eater can enjoy the real benefits while keeping the claims in proportion.
