Luis says
Are you talking about naturally fermented kraut not the stuff in vinegar, There is a product at Trader Joe for example same brand has pickles fermented in enzymes, is that what we are talking about? I do get gas from protein shakes and would like to try something natural to help reduce or alleviate that. Thanks
DJ Blatner, RDN says
Yes, fermented & unpasteurized. Not pickled in vinegar. Sounds like you need to change the recipe of your smoothie, not just add fermented foods. Certain protein powders, sweeteners, or added fibers can cause bloating. xx

Where would you shop to buy fermented and unpasteurized sourkraut
DJ Blatner, RDN says
Many grocery stores sell fermented, unpasteurized sauerkraut. Here’s how to find it:
1) It’s usually found refrigerated.
2) Look for words like: raw, perishable, unpasteurized, keep refrigerated, naturally fermented, naturally occurring Lactobacilli
3) The ingredients are only cabbage + salt (and maybe other veggies and spices). There’s no vinegar, sugar, or added preservatives.
Some brands that you may see include: Farmhouse Culture, Wildbrine, Bubbies
