Fermentation Foundations—Traditions & Trends CEFFT

Instructor: Kathrin Brunner, CNP

This comprehensive four session course will teach you how to ferment a wide variety of foods including fermented drinks, vegetables, hot sauces, vinegars and condiments. Each week you’ll ferment along with us step-by-step. Each session will explore different kinds of fermented foods and their health benefits. You’ll learn how to create flavours you love and how to best integrate these foods into your diet for optimal health. You’ll leave this course ready to ferment on your own and with the skillset to recommend fermented foods in your client work. Homemade fermented foods outperform probiotic supplements in numerous areas and are an excellent tool to promote health. Fermented foods have been shown to benefit digestive disorders, cardiovascular diseases, inflammatory conditions, mental imbalances and a wide range of skin issues. However, knowing which type of ferment is best for which condition is essential. Understanding their therapeutic application is extremely beneficial for working with a broad range of nutrition clients.
