February 21st is World Kombucha Day, a holiday created by Kombucha Brewers International to celebrate the global impact that kombucha has had since 221 BC.
Inspired by this festive occasion, and due to my passion for all things gut-health and fermented foods, The Marian Flaxman Network Podcast is spending the month of February focusing on the kombucha industry, and producers at many levels who create and distribute nourishing, live-cultured products that promote a healthy gut while providing a delicious alternative to sugary and/or alcoholic drinks.
My first guest is Sid Sharma of Wild Bay Kombucha. Started by 3 friends in the back of a juice bar, Wild Bay is now celebrating 9 successful years in business, and they’re still growing!
Sid and I discuss kombucha, entrepreneurship, and the challenges currently faced by our food system. We also talk about prevention focused health care, and how a combination of policy changes, and shifts in consumer demands, are needed to improve the healthfulness of our food supply, and society in general.
