Learn all about ferments and how you can safely and easily prepare them at home
Ferments are sustainable and easy to make
In times when we did not have fridges, ferments were an essential part of the diets of almost every culture - and that's before we even knew their nutritional value.
Make your own probiotic foods at home
Fermented foods are nutritious and wholesome. Apart from the fact that they deliver both probiotics and prebiotics, they are also jam-packed with nutrients which are often missing in today's modern diets.
Ferments are delicious and diverse
Everybody knows yoghurt, cheese, sauerkraut, beer and wine, but long-forgotten super foods like kefir, kombucha and tibicos have also become more and more popular in recent years.

Hi. I'm Paul, your host.
Paul Seelhorst
Hi, I'm Paul and I'm really happy you found this summit.
Today, I'm a passionate Foodie, Gourmet, and a Fermentation and Gut Health Expert.
A few years ago, it was a completely different story...
As a child, I had allergies, gut problems, food intolerances, you name it. I used to be sick all the time. Things got to their worst in my mid twenties. I had to be very careful with what I drank and ate, because I had reactions to most foods and drinks, and symptoms of all kinds. I couldn't sleep properly, I had panic attacks during the night and then of course, I'd be tired all day. I had stomach cramps, migraines, and a really weak immune system. I felt miserable all the time and to be honest, I was scared I was going to die soon.
After hundreds of doctor's appointments, and seeing countless acupuncturists, health coaches, healers, and homeopaths - to name but a few - I started my own research on the internet. I'm so glad I did.
At one point, I was diagnosed with what is called "histamine intolerance".
Since then, an evolutionary diet approach has helped me control my symptoms. I quickly learned that gut health plays a key role in our overall health and bad gut health is linked to all kinds of chronic diseases. I read all the books I could find, listened to podcasts, looked at studies, went to conferences and connected with experts in the field.
I was fascinated by living foods, so Kombucha, wild fermented veggies, water kefir and other fermented foods became part of my daily diet.
In 2012, I started fermenting at home, became an entrepreneur and co-founded the company Fairment. Our mission is to educate people about fermentation, and provide cultures and equipment to safely and easily ferment at home.
By 2018, I had hosted the German fermentation summit and co-founded and hosted the biggest online health summits in Europe.
Now I want to share my own knowledge and that of the world's top experts on fermentation with YOU. I enjoy every single one of my meals and I can't imagine a diet without living foods anymore.
I want you to taste the unique flavours of these long-forgotten super foods, plus save money and live healthily and sustainably at the same time.
Just enter your name and email below and I will see you on the other side!
Best,
Paul
