The global soda industry is worth over $400 billion. The probiotic supplement market exceeds $70 billion. Both depend on you not understanding what's happening in a simple jar of ginger, sugar, and water. A ginger bug is a wild fermentation starter that's been used for over 200 years. It produces naturally carbonated, probiotic-rich soda that costs about a dollar per bottle. And the specific Lactobacillus strains it contains — L. plantarum, L. brevis, L. fermentum — have been studied in hundreds of peer-reviewed papers for gut barrier integrity, inflammatory reduction, and immune support.
