    Kefir is very interesting! Unfortunately, it has a very sour taste, but I do drink some of it if my mother happens to buy some.

      Its really not that bad imo, think of it as medicinal . Im lucky I really enjoy trying all different foods🤷‍♀️

      Maple Hill has a really good grass fed plain one I just add stevia and cinnamon.. it’s delicious. I noticed the lifeway one is too runny and too sour.

      I tried. Didn’t go too well. So I just buy organic Arla kefir in the supermarket. It’s pretty good, I would say.

  7. @olgaj9267 on November 10, 2023 at 2:11 am

    Did you know that Kefir contains a tiny bit of alcohol? No worries, the percentage is really really small and benefit of drinking it outperforms anything else.

    Need to make your own to get the health benefits. Store bought is sugary and doesn’t do much. I’m in my seventies, helped both me and my husband get better sleep. Also got rid of his psoriasis, took 4 weeks. I use whole milk, tastes great just add berries for smoothie.

      I make my own yogurt, and also water kefir, kombucha, and sauerkraut. I’ll still pick up some plain versions from the store occasionally (I have a good farmer’s market type grocery store near me) when I run out and haven’t started a new batch, or if one of my ferments is still brewing.

    I drank kefir for a month 2-3 times per day maybe 4-6oz. I found that I cannot digest the proteins in cows milk and kefir confirmed this through intense bloating. I haven’t tried goat or sheep yet.
