Question: are pickles hard to digest?
Answer: “Fermenting or culturing makes food more digestible by actually 'predigesting' it for you,” Lipski says. Fermenting also increases our absorption of the other nutrients in the food. Pickles, sauerkraut, kefir, miso, tempeh and Japanese tamari or soy sauce are all easy-to-digest fermented foods.So is sourdough.
