I love it, used to get indigestion a lot and now I donāt. Not sure about the other health benefits but I rarely get ill since I started drinking it but that could be just coincidence
I used it as part of my regular breakfast for a few years alongside greek yogurt. Now Iām just using greek yogurt and whole milk in my overnight oats. I didnāt notice much difference in anything, TBH.
Thereās at least some evidence that probiotics do nothing to change gut bacteria in people who are already healthy. The studies that tested it seem to show that the ānewā bacteria introduced by probiotics just pass through you and make no difference to your overall GI health.
That said, if you donāt have a healthy GI system it could be that probiotics can help normalize and re-populate your gut with āgoodā bacteria. Anecdotally, Iāve had good luck using kefir it when Iām getting over a bad GI infection that has left things generally āoffā. It seems to reset my system. My pet theory is that a bad GI infection leaves my gut bacteria a mess and this helps repopulate things. Again, totally anecdotal though!
Iāve used it for many years as a smoothie base. Iām not sure what it does or doesnāt do, but it is easy to pour and is a tastier base than milk or water. My morning smoothies are usually kefir (whatever flavor is on sale), ice, spinach, carrots, pineapple, and an occasional scoop of whey concentrate. I buy the kefir at Aldi, Kroger, or Meijer and havenāt looked for anything more expensive/exotic.
Donāt have any experience in Kefir but I always have a special sort of yoghurt/cottage cheese-blend thatās available in Sweden. Really awesome stuff loaded with protein but is low in carbs and fat so itās easy to blend in some home made granola or rolled oats and some raisins or dates if one cares to up the carbs.

I like drink kefir with sugarā¦ of course better will be without sugarā¦ but i canāt(((
Kefir is very healthy! I remember my mom was on a diet - one day per week drink only kefir, and not eat anythingā¦ Itās hard, but cleaning all body.
I like to drink sometimes Sesame seeds with milk and honey
Iāve been on Goatās Kefir for a while and itās worked wonders for gut health and digestion.
Good old Skyr, right? I love it, it is tasty, nearly no carbs and you can blend it with any flavour you`d like. Spicy, salty or sweet with fruits. Skyr is really flexible. 3-4 times a week it is my dinner before night
Nope itās yoghurtkvarg.
