I'd of thought even poultry would turn their beak up at sauerkraut...think I'd rather suffer with the flu for a week. I'm not sure how conclusive the findings are, but seems to be quite promising.

That's interesting. I happen to like sauerkraut, I'm going out to buy it today, before the store shelves empty out.

Hmmm... I`ve got about 20 cabbages that I`ve grown this year, Maybe I should try E-Bay

If you ferment them for a month, you'll get more money for them.

More news on research that is studying the mechanisms that cause the flu virus to adapt from bird to the human strain...if the research is successful they'll be able to identify how the virus will mutate before a pandemic arises.

A vaccine (however big the needle is) sure beats eating some fermented cabbage, IMO.

i don't think you can really predict how something will mutate though.. its like trying to guess the location of a needle in a haystack

Mutate was a poor word to use...sorry about that, probably best to read the article.
