Kefir

I have just finished making a batch of Kefir. I am always appreciative of my  kefir grains ability to make me a fresh batch day after day. Kefir was a Godsend, after the birth of my daughter at the age of 4I  I was desperate to feel good and be healthy. I had become a type 2 diabetic.  I can now say that diabetes is a thing of the past. Kefir was a big part in helping me to achieve that.

Kefir has been around since the beginning of recorded history and has exceptional health and curative properties. It is a tangy, slightly fizzy (about 1% alcohol), fermented milk beverage that looks a little like pourable yogurt. It is rich in protein, calcium, vitamin B12, niacin, and folic acid. It has been used not only to promote health but also was the way they preserved their milk when there was no refrigeration. Huge amounts of good colonies of bacteria in kefir dominate the milk thereby suppressing any harmful bacterias and preserving the milk. These bacterias eat the milk sugars out of the milk, and perform their magic and infuse the milk with healthy qualities. This is why the milk becomes sour the kefir microbes eat the sugars and use this as food to create the perfect environment for good bacterias to thrive. So in turn as you consume kefir it creates an environment in you that also does the same and much more.

Many of you may have never heard of kefir. It has been called the champagne of yogurt, but it is so much more than. Here are just a few benefits.

30 plus good bacteria’s for kefir – a mere handful in Yogurt

Kefir contains 30 – 35 major strains of friendly bacteria not commonly found in yogurt, kefir is a turbo charged energy-anti-biotic-colonic cleanser drink. Yogurt is a mild nutrient rich drink that pre-digests the lactose helping the body better assimilate the good stuff.

Digestion – Kefir can help you digest everything. Kefir’s active yeast, good bacteria and excess digestive enzymes provide more nutritive value than yogurt by helping digest the foods you eat. Constipation is a thing of the past. If you drink Kefir at night no acid reflux.

So where do you find kefir? The grocery or the health food stores sell many different brands, but I would recommend you finding some grains to make it yourself which will give you kefir forever by just adding milk.  Here is a website to find local kefir grains.
