Guest guest Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Water kefir also has the same good probiotics as milk kefir. I have done milk kefir in the past, but found I was consuming too much dairy, as I continued to eat both cheese and yogurt. I still eat my homemade yogurt - because I really like it - but I have somewhat cut down on cheese. With water kefir, you are obviously not getting more dairy. I can't get raw milk here without both a commitment in travel time and money. My consumption of too much dairy meant I was displacing more leafy greens and whole grains in my diet. Water kefir seems to taste a bit alcoholic-ish to me but I doubt there's much alcohol to it. I've never seen a nutritional breakdown of water kefir. I also find water kefir to very refreshing in the summer heat.

I also add a lemon slice (peeled if not organic) Ginny in NC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
