Kombucha | $42 for 12-pack
Wildwonder brings fresh flavors to kombucha, like Guava Rose, Mango Turmeric and, our fave, sweet-but-spicy Peach Ginger. The brand donates 5% of profits to charities that empower women and marginalized communities.
Bone Broth | $12.50
Good gut health doesn’t stop at fermented foods and probiotics. The collagen in Bonafide Provisions Frontier Blend Bone Broth aids healthy digestion and can be an integral part of any gut-healing, anti-inflammatory eating plan.
Tempeh | $3
Plant-based and protein-rich with probiotics aplenty, Lightlife Original Tempeh is a must-try. Enjoy on its own or as a bacon substitute in sandwiches and salads.
“This tempeh is a kitchen chameleon. Enjoy it cubed and seasoned in a stir-fry, or even crumble it as a swap for ground meat.” —Andrea Gourgy, Executive Editor
Kefir | $6
Green Valley Creamery Lactose-Free Organic Plain Lowfat Kefir is probiotic-rich and lactose-poor, meaning it’ll heal your gut without upsetting your stomach.
“I’m a kefir fiend. I’ve tried nearly every brand and I keep coming back to Green Valley Creamery. You can really taste the quality in every sip.” —Anika Syeda, Assistant Editor
Cottage Cheese | $1.50
We love Good Culture Simply Whole Milk Classic Cottage Cheese (4% milk fat) for its perfect creamy texture.
Oatmilk Yogurt | $30 for 8
Hälsa Foods Organic Strawberry Oatmilk Yogurt is a delicious dairy-free whip full of pre- and probiotics that rivals ordinary cow’s milk yogs.
Vegan Kimchi | $6
Enjoy the crunchy, savory Nasoya Vegan Mild Kimchi right from the jar for an easy gut boost. For an extra kick, try the Vegan Spicy Kimchi.
Chili Miso | $14
Aspergillus oryzae, the main probiotic strain in miso, has been linked to reducing digestive issues. Get your fill with Abokichi OKAZU Chili Miso Condiment.
“I was hooked on my very first taste of this Chili Miso. I added it to slaw dressing and then puréed it with fresh pineapple for a chicken marinade. It was to-die!” —Alicia Tyler, Editorial Director
Salsa Verde | $7
The fire-roasted Salsa Verde from wildbrine features a medley of veggies, chiles and spices in a seasoned lime juice brine. Dollop over grilled meat, fish or tortilla-based meals.
“Incredibly versatile. Not just as a salsa or taco topping but on enchiladas, grilled proteins, roasted veg and much more.” —Heather Adams, Digital Editor
