What is water Kefir?

Water Kefir is a delicious fermented sugar-water beverage with low GI loaded with live cultures. To this date, the real origins remain unknown and attempts to manufacture it in science labs have failed. This makes it a REAL food that cannot be artificially produced.

It comprises of 30+ beneficial bacteria and yeast strains (please see below for a list of some of them) which help stimulate and regulate your immune system and digestion. This cannot be matched by commercial yoghurts and probiotic supplements which on average have a lot less strains.

Water kefir is fermented at room temperature for about 48 hours. A sugar water mix is used to grow water grains. Water kefir contains different probiotic strains to milk kefir. It has many wonderful health benefits, a great flavor and is a great alternative to milk kefir for vegans, vegetarians or those who cannot tolerate dairy. It's simple to make, has a large spectrum of probiotics and the grains live for as long as you take care of them unlike yogurt cultures which weakens in each successive batch.
