Drinking Kefir on a regular basis is a simple way to improve overall wellness and vitality. Before refrigeration, foods were preserved using fermentation. Kefir, cultured milk similar to yogurt, is created through lacto-fermentation. This process adds many beneficial microorganisms to the milk.
Modern methods of food preservation kill the beneficial enzymes and nutrients needed to help individuals thrive and feel good. A naturally occurring beneficial yeast and bacteria combination that helps balance the intestinal flora and boost immunity, kefir contains minerals and essential amino acids that are missing from modern processed foods.
Rich in vitamin B12, B1 and vitamin K, the biotin present in kefir promotes the absorption of the other B vitamins needed for healthy kidney, liver and nervous system function, as well as healthy looking skin.
In addition, kefir can penetrate the intestinal mucosa to clean and strengthen the intestines. It promotes healthy bowel movements and can be taken by pregnant women and nursing mothers as nutritional supplementation. All in all, this beneficial drink offers a simple way to stay healthy, improve sleep, increase energy levels and feel better every day
