Hello,
What is your opinion on "burčák"? Is it really as healthy as it is often claimed to be? And how much do its effects on the body change with respect to the duration of fermentation?
Thank you.
As the fermentation period extends, the alcohol content increases and the nutritional composition changes (primarily, the amount of sugars decreases). The greatest benefit of "burčák" is the content of yeast producing B complex vitamins, so consuming this beverage in moderate amounts has a positive impact on the intestinal microbiome. In excessive amounts, however, it results in exactly the opposite effects :-)
