I started making the own kefir about a week ago. I didn’t know about starting slowly, but I had no problem. The immediate effect has been on my digestion. Regularity has always been a huge problem for me. But now I’m having no issues at all. It’s a miracle worker for my gut!! Thank you for a great video!!
I drank my first Kefir last week, and I immediately got sick. The next day I had the worst cold I had in a decade. I'm still recovering, but I resumed driving the kefir after a few days, and my body seems fine. In fact, it might be changing for the better, lol. I feel more energized, and my voice is getting deeper. Not sure if it's the cold, but I distinctly remember during puperty that my voice change was very gradual where certain pitches would be "unavailable" while changing, until eventually every pitch had been worked on. That's kind of happening now, though I can't completely credit the kefir, as I've been actively trying to get testosterone up and reducing exposure to estrogenic chemicals. This includes getting rid of all food, drink & cookware plastics & switching to metal, glass & wood ones. This also includes getting rid of scented items like cologne, laundry detergent, dryer sheets, & air fresheners. I've also started filtering all my water before drinking or cooking or making coffee with it.
Another thing is definitely probiotics. I love me my Kombuchas, and now I'm also in love with Kefir! It's like a sour yogurt 😂
The breakdown was amazing 🙌🏾
When is the best time to drink? is it ok before bed? Thank you!
Lol I just drank two and a half cups and added honey and then watched this video. Hopefully that's not too much for my first time ever.
The videos you refer to as "above" and "below" are not there?
Think garbage,good glass milk. From molise
So my question is what are Kefir grains made of?
Yes, all nonsense. Cows ,goats sheep bad
