Is kimchi good for weight loss?
Any food can fit a weight-loss diet, because your total daily calories decide the result, not one food. Kimchi is relatively light for its portion, so it fits comfortably within most calorie targets.
Is kimchi healthy?
Healthy depends on the rest of your day, not one food. In a balanced diet at your calorie target, kimchi is fine; the portion and how often you eat it matter more than the food itself.
