Re: [!! SPAM] Ongoing supply for a family of four/five

Hi ,

Your target amount will depend on how much you want to drink. For me, one glass

of kefir a day is good. You don’t need to take a lot. What I do is make one 10

oz. glass each day and scoop out about 1/4 cup for hubby who doesn’t tolerate

much dairy, and a couple of teaspoons in saucers for the dogs. I drink the rest

because I love the stuff. A very small amount provides lots of probiotic value

and it is easy to drink too much. My kids take probiotic capsules because they

are dairy allergic too – not severely but it does affect them.

First of all, I am new to this group and have found it to be a huge source of

information, so thank you for that.

I just received our milk and water grains today. We have not used cow's milk for

a year as we have a dairy allergy in the family. So, we've all switched to

almond milk. Under Marilyn's advice, I am going to get my water grains going and

multiplying, then work with the almond milk with the extras to find the right

mix for my dairy allergy child. In the meantime, our hope is to get the milk

ones going for the rest of our family. We don't have a source of raw milk so

will use organic (best we can do right now). One of my questions is this:

What kind of target should I have to support four family members using the milk

kefir? I'm not used to having a lot of milk in the fridge, and I am thinking I

will try to get to the point of figuring out how much we would use daily,

primarily in smoothies. Anyone have a ball park estimate of where that may fall?

We are also hoping that, with time, we can add my allergic son to the mix so

then we would have 5 using the milk kefir.

I'm not as concerned with totals for the water as I hope to use that for special

" drinks " for my kids. We don't do a lot of soda, so this may be a good

alternative to water. But, on the flip side, is there a point where, between the

milk, and water/almond kefir, that my kids would be drinking too much?

(Especially if I am using up the grains by eating them as well?)

Hope that makes sense. Thanks in advance for your help.

You may want to try the homeopathic remedies from kingbio.com also for the

dairy allergies.
