Does Kefir curb your appetite? It sure has for my husband and i. I have had diabetes/metabolic disorder for 10 years, i have suffered with very slow digestion, chronic bloating, bad acid reflux and i never got hunger pangs or burning for years and i knew that was probably due to the diabetes. Since drinking Kefir for a couple months, the bloating has gone, the belching is gone, gastritis and acid reflux almost completely gone!!! Now im noticing hunger pangs returning, but at the same time my appetite feels curbed. Its very strange in a good way! We have now started making kombucha and fermented veggies. We love our kefir and kombucha!!!
Hi Peggy! Yes it definetly can and does for me! Feeling hungry when your actually hungry and full when your full is such a great feeling! Thank you for sharing!
@@CulturedFoodLife Thanks so much! You nailed it for me, this is my new normal, my new body peeking through, i have radical faith that this way of eating has been an answered prayer for me and thousands if not millions of others. Im thankful for you and all the knowledge and scientific facts you have taken the time to research for us, i can tell your love for helping others is genuine. God Bless You and continue to prosper you on this journey of life!
Great information...thank you. I'm doing kombucha, kefir and some fermented veggies, hoping to add sourdough soon and my body is getting healthier every day😊 Empowering individuals to become thier own healer is good medicine and you are a gift to so many❤️
I'm a nurse and soon as you read off the symptoms the lady was admitted to the hospital for I immediately thought sepsis from some underlying infection not kombucha.
Thank you, Beauty. My Husband...is requesting kefir now...this is a miracle. Blended with frozen mango or berries; has replaced soft serve and milkshakes. We have watched your videos and listened to the podcasts together. Blessings!
I just finished making ( from your recipe book) fermented celery, grapes, apples, carrots and pickles. I made a trip back to my 'home' state where they have more options ( stores) to buy things like star anise, allspice berries, and just good spices in general. I am uber excited to start eating them now on a daily basis. I have been eating ferment cabbage and beets for a couple of years, and recently ( Nov 2018) I began my journey to making and drinking Kombucha and kefir and I drink them everyday! Matter a fact, I bought a store bought bottle of what use to be my favorite brand/flavor of KT---I had not had any store bought since I began making my own. I wondered how they would pale in taste and honestly I liked my homemade much better..Not that the store bought was bad, but nope, couldn't wait to get home to my own with a new 2F ready after being gone a few days. Even as I shopped for food yesterday I have noticed my desire to buy foods that I use to 'cook' really don't entice me and I can't wait till the garden is in harvest this year to ferment as opposed to pressure canning etc...Seriously, food is our medicine and as you had once stated we have almost demonized our food with all the processing...I try to tell others all the time how much these food groups have changed my life..even my mental well being has improved immeasurably. Everyone at my job got sick from a cold and I was the only one who didn't. I started to get a sore throat but I started to down fermented foods plus their liquid as I had heard you say to do in many of your pod casts...it never got any further than the sore throat and I do share it with others at work.. No one is biting yet, but never know...just keep swimming and eventually they will hopefully see...Thank YOU!! and Cheers to good eating and drinking!!
Rhonda! You are an inspiration! Not everyone is ready for cultured foods but I've found if they hang around me long enough they all come around haha! Cheers to you and good health!
Donna can you get to much lactic acid in your system form Kefir ? I have LS and I’ve noticed if I drink about 4 cups a day it helps me. I use the Kefir starter, the starter culture, not the grains. I’m worried about to much lactic acid though.
In the begining if you have a lot of bad yeasts and bad bacteria to kill you can get "bad" cravings as they die off. Candida especially will create super strong cravings as it balances out/dies out. But this is a good sign and you just have to keep pushing.

May I suggest too, learn how to breathe before your meal and after and always bless it with gratefulness!
Great information...thank you.

Gerri, that is great to hear! Keep us updated on your progress! Thanks for listening.

There are several 'kombucha' brands on the shelf. Some of them taste nothing like kombucha and a lot like water.
Thank you 🤗 people need to look beyond headlines for all info. They are just to catch your attention
Very true!
Your podcasts are such a blessing. I always look forward to your podcasts weekly😄
I'd like to know the impact that drinking kefir ( and other cultured foods ) can have on the bacteria which worsen dental cavities.
Thank you wonderful woman for good information 😇🤗😘😍👍👌🤜🤛👏👏👏👏👏👏

Isn't it so fun when the picky husbands join in? My husband is the pickiest man on earth and he is fully on board now!
@@CulturedFoodLife I also meant to say, thank you for my kefir grains-the gift that keeps on giving :).

Hello to you Ms. Donna. Do you have a recipe on how to make a probiotic soap? Thank you
Hi! I do not. Probiotics usually need to be refrigerated to stay alive. So I usually just consume mine for this reason :)
Can you talk about what you eat in a typical day? How much fermented kefir kombucha fruits veggies are you supposed to eat daily?
He I have a whole blog on this :) www.culturedfoodlife.com/a-day-in-the-life-of-a-cultured-foodie/
Does milk kefir remove heavy metals in the body as well?

Chlorella with cilantro does! Check out mercolas fermented Chlorella or mike Adams the health rangers one !
I ordered your kifer grains and am expecting them anyday now. I am so curious to see if it works for me.
Hope you love them!
It probably kept her alive for those 2 months 🥰 js it’s good for you. Turn off the media watch Donna and drink kefir❤
