What do you know about Kefir?

Question

I was reading up on Kefir and it's benefits.. Apparently it fights all the nasty yeasts and whatnot in your body. Anyone know if it fights against yeast infections? I think we're talking about the kind that involves candidas?

Answer 1

yes it does but the best form is RAW if you can fine a farm that will sell it ,it helps build your immune system, I take it my self I wish I could find a farm that would sell it raw

Answer 2

It's a form of yogurt.  That's all.

For people with lactose intolerance, it's a good way to get dairy foods because the lactose is used in the fermentation.

If you like it, eat it, but don't expect miracles.

Answer 3

Kefir is wonderful.  It has all the benefits of yogurt and more.  I started drinking it when I had some stomach problems.  My body actually craves it when I get run down.  It takes a bit to get used to the taste. If you like yogurt you will probably like it.  You can make your own from curds.  I am in a group that supports kefir makers.  http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/Rea...
