Kefir, pronounced “kee-feer,” is a fermented milk drink people have been sipping for thousands of years. And according to ancient wisdom and modern research, kefir is good for you.

“Studies are ongoing, but it seems there are many benefits of kefir,” . “Like other foods that contain #probiotics (good bacteria) and postbiotics (bacteria byproducts), kefir boosts #gut health and provides a number of other health benefits.”

Kefir is made by adding kefir grains, which contain yeast and good bacteria, to cow, goat or sheep milk. The microorganisms convert lactose (milk sugar) into lactic acid, giving it a sour taste and adding lots of nutrients.

Kefir tastes like liquid yogurt and comes in plain and flavored varieties. “Watch out for sugar content in flavored kefir” . “Too much sugar takes away from the health benefits of kefir. Pick products lower in sugar or stick with plain.”

Kefir’s nutritional benefits vary based on what type of milk it contains and the fermenting process. But in general, it’s better for you than yogurt because it contains more strains of probiotics and beneficial yeast.

Kefir is also low in lactose (milk sugar), so even people with lactose intolerance can usually drink it without a problem. Dairy-free options exist, but they don’t have the same nutritional profile as traditional kefir.

You can consider kefir a superfood, as it’s loaded with vitamins, minerals and nutrients, including:

Calcium.
Magnesium.
Protein.
Riboflavin (vitamin B2).
Vitamin B12.
Vitamin D.


Abdominal pain.
Bloating.
Constipation.
Diarrhea.
Gas.

Kefir contains approximately 12 active probiotic strains. When you eat probiotic and postbiotic-rich foods like kefir, it adds more good bacteria to your gut. They keep harmful bacteria in check and support gut health. One study suggests that regularly consuming kefir positively shifts the balance of organisms in the microbiome, reducing symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease. Another study found that kefir relieves chronic constipation.

Kefir also boasts other substances known for helping ease tension. These nutrients help create and regulate brain chemicals that stabilize your mood:

B vitamins.
Magnesium.
Tryptophan.

Kefir has several health benefits and can be a nutritious addition to your diet. Just keep in mind, says Sommer, that you can get some gas and bloating when you first start eating foods high in probiotics. Add kefir slowly as your body adjusts. And enjoy this delicious way to boost your overall health.
