DOES COOKING KILL LIVE
“BENEFICIAL CULTURES”… PROBIOTICS?

Inspired by https://www.care2.com/greenliving/does-cooking-kill-probiotics.html

Most frequently asked questions…about probiotics…
Are “live probiotic cultures” DESTROYED​ BY HEAT?…​.

Can you kill the healthy bacteria by cooking it?

Yes.

Does that mean you should never cook probiotics?

No, but it’s complicated…​
We all know probiotics are good for us…

While the heat from cooking & pasteurization can easily DESTROY “enzymes and probiotics”…

but are we ALWAYS RECEIVING THE FULL BENEFITS​?

Below are the Three of the Easiest Ways to “MESS UP” preparing probiotic foods​…

How the avoid them…. BY Applying Heat ABOVE 115*…

Probiotic-rich foods are often “great building blocks for flavor”…

but that doesn’t mean they should “necessarily be cooked with”….

Live probiotic cultures are destroyed at around 115°F,

THIS means… that “fermented” foods like miso, kimchi & sauerkraut…

SHOULD BE USED AT THE END OF COOKING…

WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS AROUND 110* LUKE WARM…if you want to preserve their gut health benefits.

Use them to top mealS…
Stir into soups or sauces …at the “last minute”…
or serve “on the side”…. to “pair with warm dishes”. 

There are certain foods are usually assumed to be full of probiotics,

but depending on how they’re PROCESSED & PACKAGED (FOR SHELF LIFE)

May not always be the case…​

The process of PASTEURIZATION​…
which heats up foods to kill harmful bacteria​…

(Are NOT formed with MILK DIRECTLY​ FROM THE COW) …
(WITH ORDINARY SANITATION PRACTICe, PREVENTING CONTAMINATION​ & GROWTH)…

PASTEURIZATION​…
kills MOSTLY the …’good’- BENEFICIAL​ BACTERIA …

In products… when they’re canned…

(CANNED FISH, FRUIT OR VEGETABLES…
ANY UNCLEAN OR “NOT FRESH”…”ARE KILLED IN THE CANNING PROCESS”…

LEAVING “LOADS OF DEAD BACTERIA” TO BE DISPOSED OF IH OUR BODIES & MINDS…
CAUSING DISEASES​ & DYSFUNCTION​..
(Allergies, arthritis, Memory problems​, Alzheimers & Dementia​)​

PACKING MUST BE RINSED…
SEVERAL TIMES & SOAKED ON SALTWATER​ & RINSED AGAIN​…
TO REMOVE THE ALLERGY & DISEASES CAUSED BY THE “DEAD BACTERIA” …
NO LONGER BIOAVAILABLE…

This ALSO means that canned versions of sauerkraut, kimchi & other fermented foods “won’t have the same amount” of probiotics as “refrigerated varieties”…

Yogurt, made from fermenting (raw-with Beneficial Bacteria) milk,
naturally contains healthy bacteria that provide nutritional support for your digestive tract.

However, high heat exposure — either during the “pasteurization” process or “during cooking”, when yogurt is added to hot foods — will destroy the bacteria. BEST TO USE LIVE YOGURT IN SMOOTHIES!
To ensure you get the full benefits of probiotics in yogurt,

Choose yogurt with live (RAW)
(from a local farmer)
(raw – never pasteurized…
WITHOUT THE LOAD OF “DEAD BACTERIA”….from pasteurization)…
& eat the yogurt “as is” —
NOT TO BE added TO hot foods.

Pair with Gut Busters…
While yogurt is often touted as a “rich source of probiotics”,
that doesn’t mean that “EVERY yogurt” variety is always the best choice….

The plethora of options in the grocery store can sometimes contain large amounts of refined sugars and artificial sweeteners,
both of which are linked to poor gut health.

Instead, choose yogurts that and have a “short ingredients list”…
to get the full benefits
& don’t contain added sugars 
or list ingredients “pasteurized milk​”….
Or make your own (milk from a farmer) …
Easy…just add cultures to lukewarm “raw” milk 105* – 110*…
(Baby Bottle temperature … warm enough to grow live cultures)…

How to Make Sheet Pan Kimchi Nachos
Our Asian-inspired nachos are wildly flavorful with a tangy kick from kimchi. Kimchi is a spicy Korean condiment that is often fermented and aged, delivering gut-healthy probiotics.
