Jody is an avid foodie, amateur chef, and a fan of simple, healthy eating. She learned the art of fermentation after discovering the fascinating connection between gut bacterial health and the overall health of the body. Jody was impressed with the positive health benefits her family experienced after adding delicious and traditional fermented food to their simple, balanced diet. Jody was so inspired, she created The Cultured Foodie, a resource teaching how to prepare and incorporate tasty fermented foods as part of a balanced and healthy lifestyle.
