Musings, Tests and Experiments

I tried the Hume Health Body Pod, the much advertised Body Scale. It presumes of 98% accuracy and gives you over 40 measurements. I tried it, after some initial problems with the app, for 3 days. Here my findings and the reasons why I returned it. 

 I follow Dr. Davis' suggestions to ferment L-Reuteri yogurt with almond, hazelnut and coconut milk.  My findings, the different results and my conclusion. 

 The healthiest Sauerkraut is the one fermented at home! The quick and easy process to ferment Sauerkraut at home. And an update on the kombucha :) 

I tried the Stelo Dexcom Glucose Biosensor for a month. Here my takeaway and experience.

 Fermenting Carrots, Onions and Radishes and trying my hand with Red Beet Kvass. 

 A viewer a while back suggested in his comment I check out Dr. William Davis' recipe for L-Reuteri. I purchased Dr. Davis' books (Wheat Belly and Super Gut, as well as Undoctored and 10-Day Grain Detox. And I had to try the yogurt, of course.  My first attempt was a lumpy, watery mess. I think the Yogurt Maker ran too hot and killed all my probiotics. I didn't film that one, but believe me, you didn't miss anything pretty! And I did a second batch, using all 3 recommended strains together (l-reuteri, l-gasseri and l-subtilis).  And that one turned out good. Here I am making a second generation of the same yogurt, adding more inulin and Half & half. I really like this "yogurt", and have some every day. My dogs also get some at least 3 times a week, so I have to make new batches all the time! I did have some bloating at first, but that went away after a few days. And, as I had done my homework and read about it, I wasn't worried and knew my gut would adjust. I can only recommend! Thanks to my viewer for suggesting this!!
