Studies from different continents have revealed strong associations between the microorganisms present in certain fermented foods (e.g., agave fructans, kefir, yeats, kombucha, chungkookjang, cheeses and vegetables, among others) and weight maintenance, reductions in the risk of cardiovascular disease, antidiabetic and constipation benefits, improvement of glucose and lipids levels, stimulation of the immunological system, anticarcinogenic effects and, most importantly, reduced mortality. Accordingly, the aim of this review is to corroborate information reported in experimental studies that comprised interventions involving the consumption of traditional fermented foods or beverages and their association with human health. This work focuses on studies that used fermented food from 2014 to the present. In conclusion, traditional fermented foods or beverages could be important in the promotion of human health. Further studies are needed to understand the mechanisms involved in inflammatory, immune, chronic and gastrointestinal diseases and the roles of fermented traditional foods and beverages in terms of preventing or managing those diseases.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/microorganisms10061151","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,2]],"date-time":"2022-06-02T11:05:02Z","timestamp":1654167902000},"page":"1151","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":154,"title":["Traditional Fermented Foods and Beverages from around the World and Their Health Benefits"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Leonel","family":"Cuamatzin-Garc\u00eda","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Biological Science Department, Universidad Popular Aut\u00f3noma del Estado de Puebla, Puebla 72410, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paola","family":"Rodr\u00edguez-Rugarc\u00eda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biological Science Department, Universidad Popular Aut\u00f3noma del Estado de Puebla, Puebla 72410, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8397-9482","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elie Girgis","family":"El-Kassis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biological Science Department, Universidad Popular Aut\u00f3noma del Estado de Puebla, Puebla 72410, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Georgina","family":"Galicia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Genomics and Oncological Research (GENYO), Pfizer-University of Granada-Junta de Andaluc\u00eda, 18016 Granada, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6560-0929","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mar\u00eda de Lourdes","family":"Meza-Jim\u00e9nez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Sciencies, School of Nutrition, Universidad Popular Aut\u00f3noma del Estado de Puebla, Puebla 72410, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8455-8671","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ma. del Roc\u00edo","family":"Ba\u00f1os-Lara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Oncological Research Center, Una Nueva Esperanza, Universidad Popular Aut\u00f3noma del Estado de Puebla, Puebla 72410, Mexico"},{"name":"School of Medicine, Universidad Popular Aut\u00f3noma del Estado de Puebla, Puebla 72410, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Diego Salatiel","family":"Zaragoza-Maldonado","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Oncological Research Center, Una Nueva Esperanza, Universidad Popular Aut\u00f3noma del Estado de Puebla, Puebla 72410, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2287-8338","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Beatriz","family":"P\u00e9rez-Armend\u00e1riz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biological Science Department, Universidad Popular Aut\u00f3noma del Estado de Puebla, Puebla 72410, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"17593","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.0407921102","article-title":"Fermented Beverages of Pre- and Proto-Historic China","volume":"101","author":"McGovern","year":"2004","journal-title":"Proc.
