Sauerkraut is incredibly nutritious and healthy… here’s why you should be eating more of it (and this salad is a great place to start!):

  • It provides probiotics and vitamin K2, known for their health benefits
  • It can help strengthen your immune system, improve your digestion and reduce your risk of certain diseases.
  • Due to the probiotic, gut-loving properties, it may improve your mood as it promotes a healthier balance in the gut.
