(HealthNewsDigest.com) – KANSAS CITY, MO – How did one woman overcome disease, heal her family and supercharge her life? With home-cooked meals and a whole bunch of bacteria.

Recipe book meets personal memoir, Cultured Food Life: Learn to Make Probiotic Foods in Your Home by Donna Schwenk is a healthy living cookbook that tells the story of the Schwenk family and how cultured foods drastically changed their lives. With step-by-step instructions and over sixty recipes, Schwenk explores the science behind these “power foods” and how to grow them in your own home.

For the past 10 years, Schwenk has been studying probiotic foods and perfecting delicious recipes to harness the potential of “good bacteria.” A homeschool mom and small-town wife, Schwenk’s passion for cultured cooking spurred from hardship. At the age of 40, Schwenk endured a rough pregnancy, resulting in diabetes and high blood pressure. Her eldest daughter was suffering from irritable bowel syndrome, and Schwenk’s world seemed to be crumbling. Through learning to make cultured foods and recipes, Schwenk conquered disease and restored the health and wellness of her family.

Now, Schwenk shares her love for probiotics through lectures, blogging and cooking classes, where she helped countless others improve their health.

“The power of these foods is unbelievable,” says Schwenk. “I went from struggling to get off the couch to feeling better than I have in years—I feel more like 25 than 51!”
