Milk kefir grains

Milk kefir contains over 50 different beneficial bacterial strains, as opposed to probiotic yogurt, which only contains 1-3 strains, and store-bought kefir, which has about 7 strains. Homemade milk kefir contains millions of probiotics in a single serving. It is also the only probiotic that has been tested to last through the entire digestive tract. Probiotics are essential for fighting almost any disease, as they possess potent antibacterial properties and are packed with nutrients that can help repopulate and restore the balance of friendly bacteria in your gut, especially after antibiotic use. Kefir is generally well tolerated by people with lactose intolerance because the lactic acid bacteria convert the lactose into lactic acid, and they also contain enzymes that can further break down the lactose.
