Milk kefir

 Hi guys,
 Do you guys like yogurt?! You probably  will like milk kefir as well. It's a little more sour but oh so delicious. There are so many health benefits in drinking this great probiotic drink. Healthier digestive system. Helps to create a healthy immune system. It can help relieve intestinal issues. Helps with bowel movement. It can even help your nervous system. It's a Whole Food, super good!! And, those people who cannot drink milk because they are lactose intolerant, can actually consume milk kefir because the 
 Kefir grains consume the lactose during the culturing process. So with so many benefits, why not try it?! 

 
These are called kefir grains. They are the little buddies that do all the work in culturing the milk. These living cuties are our gut friends. 

( I get very excited about them) Kefir grains are combinations of yeasts and bacteria living on a substrate made up of a variety of dairy components. These live kefir grains look a little bit like cauliflower florets and are somewhat gelatinous in texture.  - Alex Lewin from 
Here is Weston A Price on making your own milk Kefir!


We use milk kefir for a base in our smoothies, also making our own ranch dressing, using it in pancake batter for the best pancakes. And more. 
 This is just a brief description on milk kefir, but there is so much more I can say. 
 If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask! 
     Blessings!
