Gut Healthy Salmon
Salmon is one of the most nutritious foods you can include in your diet. Salmon contains high amounts of EPA and DHA, two powerful omega-3 fatty acids that help reduce inflammation, lower blood pressure, and decrease risk factors for disease. These essential fats support brain health and may help reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. Salmon is an excellent source of B vitamins, including B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, and B12. These vitamins help your body convert food into energy, create and repair DNA, and reduce inflammation. When you pair this powerful entre with an equally powerful side of Garden Goddess Ferments Kraut, you made your self a meal that's not only delicious but a plate full of health.
Here's a simple but delicious recipe for oven-baked salmon:

1-2 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
