Both are made from fermented cabbage. While sauerkraut has a mild flavor, kimchi is spicy and contains other vegetables. Kimchi is made with napa cabbage, radish, garlic, chili peppers, ginger, and salt. Because kimchi contains more vegetables, it contains more phytonutrients. It also has a greater microbial diversity. The predominant microbe in sauerkraut and kimchi is Lactobacillus plantarum. It can survive in harsh environments, including stomach acid. This microbe contributes to beneficial gut bacteria and can also increase serotonin. Kimchi helps cultivate a unique microbe not found in sauerkraut that inhibits pathogens such as listeria. It also protects against fungi, yeast, and mold. Sauerkraut contains a higher concentration of L. brevis, a microbe that benefits gut health and the immune system. Sauerkraut and kimchi produce bacteriocins, which are natural antibiotics. Sauerkraut and kimchi are made from fermented cabbage, a cruciferous vegetable with the following beneficial properties: • Rich in phytonutrients • Loaded with glutathione • Contains anthocyanins, which promote longevity • A powerful source of vitamin U, which protects against ulcers • Contains glutamine, which is very beneficial for leaky gut Kimchi not only has a wider variety of microbes, but also contains fermented garlic, which has powerful antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects. It's also very beneficial for your immune system. Ginger contains a compound that, when fermented, converts into several other anti-inflammatory molecules. Ginger is beneficial for digestion and can be an effective remedy for nausea. Compounds in chili peppers also increase when fermented and are beneficial for pain, inflammation, circulation, metabolism, and fat loss. Kimchi is better for weight loss due to its beneficial properties for blood sugar and insulin resistance. It also contains more vitamin C. For maximum benefits, seek out raw sauerkraut or kimchi!
