Hi, I totally agree, I regularly haveĀ sourkrautĀ and sour cucumber from Europe, no kidney stones even though I love my milk. Preservatives a huge problem, but a bigger one is the glyphosate used heavenly in agriculture , the main pesticide ,the possible cause of increase of autism from 3/1000 to current 30/1000 , and what about reduced IQ in the future aided by kids having their heads stuck in the smart phone. Probably will not live long enough to see long term effects.
I have not taken antibiotics in 10 years, but aware of the killing of the good gut bacteria.
