Alive
Alive is a new brand of fermented foods and drinks. Fermentation is a process that involves bacteria and yeast breaking down sugars. Other than enhancing food preservation, eating fermented food can boost the number of beneficial bacteria or probiotics, found in the gut. Probiotics have been associated with a variety of health benefits, including improved digestion, better immunity, and even increased weight loss. So far, we have launched 5 fermented foods and drinks that have been shown to improve health and digestion.
