Along with Extra Virgin Olive Oil a while back, I have been adding Natto to my diet. I am fortunate to have a source for Organic Firm Tofu, which we eat three times a week for our dinner meal. In many parts of the world, especially where soy is not organic, fermented soy such as miso, tempeh, or natto is considered safer. Natto, a fermented heart healthy food, is typically made from soybeans. Other sources can be also used to make it (see linked article). By adding the bacteria Bacillus subtilis, the fermenting process is started and then speeds up, resulting in the enzyme Nattokinase. The enzyme Nattokinase, which comes from Natto, has amazing health benefits including those that are specific to heart health. The starter bacteria from Natto may be recreated much like making yogurt on your kitchen shelf. After a batch or two is made it can be stored in the refrigerator to add to a new batch of Soybearns to start the process again. I was thinking Gypsy that this could be something you could "sneak" when you are up alone in the early AM. It is a traditional Japanese food, typically eaten at breakfast with miso soup, fish, and (brown) rice.
Natto: the Fermented Soy Superfood
Natto is perhaps the healthiest soy product. That's because this fermented food provides beneficial probiotics along with supporting bone health, digestion and heart health.draxe.com
Yes - occasionally my wife or son brings me a couple of servings of natto from the Asian store we have here - and also Kimchi - which has good friendly bacterias that improve the stomach biome - sauerkraut too - and I eat Greek plain yogurt every day - with my main meal
- and have never had stomach problems -
My girls are growing like “weeds”. 
But it still tastes like shit.
