    Hello Dr. Gundry!! 😊 I’ve been following you for years!! I’m so happy to find you on YouTube. Thank you for sharing your wealth of information and promoting good health for all of us!!
  • I use a very good 18 year old balsamic vinegar, but it can get costly. However, I have been making my own vinegars from various juices for years and consume quite a bit of them on a daily basis. I make Concord grape, apple, cherry, pomegranate (I just bottled up 5 liter bottles of my latest batch of pomegranate vinegar). I started my first apple cider vinegar experiment years ago using a pasteurized organic apple cider with no added anything and no preservatives. I used Braggs apple cider vinegar to kickstart the fermentation—there are hundreds of videos with the step by step process. I was able to harvest the resulting SCOBY (Symbiotic Community of Bacteria and Yeast - it forms in sheets on the top of the fermenting juice) and kept that for every new batch since then. I just select the best SCOBYs during each completed ferment and put them in a jar with a bit of sugar water and keep them refrigerated to start the next batch. It is so easy — it just takes time for the fermentation to progress to a finished product.

    Dr Gundry always clearing up fundamental facts - thank you !
  • Vinegar from dates is abc in Babylonian culture where I was born. Learned from maternal grandmother. Now I do vinegar at home I had mother and scobi from kambocha sine2007 . It is just like sourdough starter. The agent used dates, grapes dark, apples organic, peeled bananas, oranges, kiwi, coconut. Any thing could be fermented if it has sugar, if less sugar one can add tablespoon of sugar to big jar. Principles of making:: sterile glass jar with big opening with boiling water provided you put stainless steel spoon to cool water and leave . Wash your hands, wash your material with filtered water . Put dates or grapes or sliced apple up to 1/4 or 1/2 of the jar depending on its sugar amount. More sugar less apples. Add filtered water room temperature. Close the cover . Keep in a warm dark place like cupboard or cover with towel or black plastic bag . Good bacteria like dark , warm and no oxygen ( anorobic). Put label with dates . Leave 40 days before using. Check every now and then Now remembered to phone to ask about vinegar I did . Every house I go to visit teach them and do vinegar for them . Every thing we learn In childhood our brains are wired to do it.The spoon take it out , the idea is glass jar don’t break. Learned by experience.

    Surprisingly - White Vinegar mixed about 7/1 with water and a good dose of Lemon Juice and Stevia to taste ia actually quite good - who knew?

    “Most of our guts are a desert wasteland.” 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks to you, I incorporated polyphenol-rich foods, fermented products, vinegar, and a variety of plants that allowed me to change that.
  • @Blkpll
    I just had some - so good!
  • @Edlas22158
    I had balsamic vinegar but the label said it contained soy, so I threw it away. Is the soy in it full of lectins? I believe soy lecithin has no soy protein in it. It is safe to take if in a lectin free diet? I hope I can hear some information on this.
  • So is taking an Akkermesia probiotic really necessary or can you just eat fermented foods?

    Hey! Dr. Eric Berg just put out a video called The 7 Signs of a Leaky Gut. What do you think of his evaluation?
  • I noticed that my balsamic vinegar has sulfates in it is that harmful, please let me know, anyone
  • @dotjeff4543
    Dr. Gundry, Since vinegar makes the mitochondria work harder to make energy, would it be contraindicated for thin people like me who have a hard time putting on weight, but can easily lose weight due to stress?

    Dr G’s ‘fake Coke’ drink—balsamic vinegar and soda water is fantastic. I use cherry flavored seltzer water to make a fake cherry coke!
