Kefir water

Water kefir, just like milk kefir, utilizes a beneficial culture of microbes that consume the simple sugars in the juice, coconut water or sugar water base to create a plethora of probiotics. The water kefir culture’s use of the sugar means that there isn’t much sugar left in the final product.

This is good news for those with Metabolic Syndrome in that water kefir doesn’t add to problems with blood sugar fluctuations or feed those sugar cravings. In addition, the fermentation process releases additional vitamins and minerals.  Best of all, there aren’t any additives, chemicals or artificial anything in a kefir soda made with properly fermented water kefir.  It even turns out a bit bubbly just like conventional sodas and can be bottled to add further effervescence.  Water kefir can also be used as a base for dairy-free smoothies, popsicles, and homemade jello. Water kefir can be added to non-dairy milks like almond milk too. Use 1/4 cup water kefir to 2-3 cups non-dairy milk, mix and serve. Extra water kefir grains may be used as starter culture for fermenting vegetables.

More info

In terms of its benefits, kefir water contains a wide range of beneficial bacteria and yeasts, which are good for our digestion. Kefir is also rich in vitamins and minerals, specifically vitamins B2 and B12, K, D and A1 as well as magnesium, calcium and phosphorus. It is high in amino acids too, notably tryptophan, which has a calming effect upon our bodies. Kefir is also very easy to digest thanks to the many enzymes that it contains.

Additionally scientific evidence suggests that drinking kefir can:

  • Assist in eradicating the bacterial infection helicobacter pylori when used in conjunction with triple therapy.
  • Provide anti-microbial substances such as organic acids and hydrogen peroxide, which can inhibit the growth of disease causing bacteria.

Increase the flow of digestive juices and stimulate the wave-like motion of the large intestine known as peristalsis. This latter property may make kefir effective in cases of constipation.
