在欧美人的餐桌上，少不了提升风味的“起司、优格”，在日本人的佐餐食物中的灵魂上要角，非“味噌、酸黄瓜”莫属，甚至国人早餐爱喝粥必配的“酱菜、豆腐乳”，这一些食物都是属于“发酵食物”家族。Fermented foods have been part of the human diet for centuries. At the tables of Europeans and Americans, you will find cheese and yogurt. Similarly, miso and Kimchi play important roles in the Asian cuisines. These foods belong to the "fermented food" family.
发酵食物有着古老的历史。在还没有冰箱的时代，人类便懂得利用微生物来保存食物及制作饮品。纵观世界各地，都有流传悠久的发酵食物，像是酸奶、干酪、酒酿、泡菜、酱油、食醋、纳豆、啤酒、葡萄酒、康普茶等。Fermented food has an ancient history. In the era when refrigerators were not available, humans knew how to use micro-organisms to preserve foods, improve flavor and eliminate food toxins. And there is a wide range of fermented food in different cultures, such as yogurt, cheese, wine, kimchi, soy sauce, vinegar, wine, Kombucha and so on.
英文 “fermentation” 一字源自拉丁文“fervere” (发泡)，意指酵母菌生长于果汁或发芽谷物产生二氧化碳的现象。The word "fermentation" in English is derived from the Latin "fervere" (foaming), which means that yeast grows in fruit juice or sprouted grains to produce carbon dioxide.
很多人会以为腌渍食物也是发酵食物的一种，其实不然，这两者无论在营养成分或营养价值上，都有很大的差别。
Many people think that pickled food is also a kind of fermented food. In fact, they are not the same in terms of nutritional value.
从制作方式来看，发酵食物是利用微生物的活动，把食物中的大分子物质分解成容易消化吸收的小分子，但腌渍则是加入糖、盐等调味料，多半只是为了保存、防止腐败，对身体的负担较大。From the production method, fermented food is the use of micro-organisms to break down the food molecules to smaller for easily digested and absorbed, but the pickling is to add sugar and salt, mostly to preserve and to prevent spoilage.
近年来随着大家对于健康饮食意识抬头，发酵食物已经慢慢从配角跃升为主角。As awareness of healthy eating is rising, fermented foods have slowly jumped from supporting roles to protagonists.很多研究证实肠道是维护全身健康和免疫力的重要防线，而发酵的酸性环境与发酵菌种有助于肠道益菌生长及代谢，因此发酵食物逐年更加热门，消费者更倾向花更多钱购买食材来源易懂且可信任的食品。Many studies have confirmed that the gut is an important line of defense to maintain overall health and immunity. Fermented foods contain probiotic bacteria, which help to colonize our gut with the good bacteria we need and keep out the bad. Therefore, fermented foods are becoming more popular and consumers are more inclined to spend more money on fermented food.
相较于加工食品总是列出一大堆看不懂的化学添加剂，而发酵食物的制作过程天然，且无多余添加及防腐剂，加上营养价值高，不仅促进肠道菌相平衡、提高免疫力，还可降低血脂血压及预防病症。种种益处恰好满足现代人对健康、干净饮食的需求。Compared to processed foods with a lot of chemical additives, fermented food is natural, has high nutritional value and no extra additives and preservatives. Eating fermented food can help balance gut flora, improve Immunity, lower blood lipids and prevent illness. These benefits are exactly what modern people need for a healthy and clean diet.
康普茶也是近年非常热门的发酵饮品。拥有千年历史的康普茶富含益生菌、维生素 B、有机酸、茶多酚、活性酶、氨基酸和一种普通茶中没有的，叫DSL的强效抗氧化剂，被科学家认作是抵抗免疫系统疾病的主要秘密武器。
Kombucha is a very popular fermented beverage in recent years. Kombucha with thousands of years of history is rich in probiotics, vitamin B, organic acids, tea polyphenols, active enzymes, amino acids and a powerful antioxidant called DSL, which is not found in ordinary tea, is regarded by scientists as the main secret weapon against immune system diseases.
Zestea康普茶采用欧盟有机认证祁门红茶和原蔗糖为基底发酵，加上草本植物平衡风味，配上发酵过程产生的微气泡，酸酸甜甜清爽无负担。
Zestea Kombucha uses organic Keemun black tea certified by ECOCERT and raw cane sugar as base fermentation, adding natural herbs to balance acidity, making Zestea tastes refreshing and bubbly with sweet and tangy flavor.
