Probiotics are foods or supplements that contain live microorganisms intended to maintain or improve the “good” bacteria (normal microflora) in the body that support the immune system, treat certain digestive conditions and help in maintaining regular bowel movements.

All Regurt Kefir products contain 25 – 30 billion Colony Forming Units (CFU) of live and active kefir cultures per cup. The kefir cultures include:

• Lactobacillus Lactis
• Lactobacillus  Rhamnosus
• Streptococcus Diacetylactis
• Lactobacillus Plantarum
• Lactobacillus Casei
• Saccharomyces Florentinus
• Leuconostoc Cremoris
• Bifidobacterium Longum
• Bifidobacterium Breve
• Lactobacillus Acidophilus
• Bifidobacterium Lactis
• Lactobacillus Reuteri

The main job of probiotics, or good bacteria, is to maintain a healthy balance in your body. Think of it as keeping your body in neutral. When you are sick, bad bacteria enters your body and increases in number. This knocks your body out of balance. Good bacteria works to fight off the bad bacteria and restore the balance within your body, making you feel better. Each time you consume probiotics, like kefir, they compete for this space and push the harmful bacteria out.

Probiotics are made up of good bacteria that helps keep your body healthy and working well. This good bacteria helps you in many ways, including fighting off bad bacteria when you have too much of it, helping you feel better.

Some of the conditions that might be helped by increasing the amount of probiotics in your body (through food or supplements) include:

• Diarrhea (both diarrhea caused by antibiotics and from Clostridioides difficile (C. diff) infection).
• Constipation.
• Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
• Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
• Yeast infections.
• Urinary tract infections.
• Gum disease.
• Lactose intolerance.
• Eczema (atopic dermatitis).
• Upper respiratory infections (ear infections, common cold, sinusitis).
• Sepsis (specifically in infants).

It’s entirely up to you, but we recommend consuming 25ml-50ml for the first 2 days in the morning or afternoon. At Day 3, double your dose every day and reach 150-200 ml per day.

 Everyone reacts differently to kefir, so play around with your serving and see what works for you. Some people drink a few 50ml a day, while others drink 200ml  or more each day!

Regurt Kefir is similar to drinkable yogurt in texture and is a delightfully tart and tangy in taste. Kefir affects individuals differently, but in general you can look forward to improved digestion, increased immunity and replenished gut flora. Regurt Kefir may also help regulate bowel movements.

As we have the policy of “Ferment on Demand” and we don’t add any chemical stabilizers or additives to our kefir drink.

Regurt Kefir can vary depending on temperature and season. During warmer months, the fermentation process is faster than in colder months  This once again occurs because we strive to keep our kefir as natural as possible. At the same time, lumps may form due to the culturing process and are a natural characteristic of kefir.

Yes for sure, Regurt Kefir is gluten-free and up to 99% lactose-free, so it’s gentle on kids’ tummies. Plus, research shows that drinking kefir may support immunity and digestive systems in young children.

DO START WITH LESS QUANTITY

Absolutely! We love using kefir in our kitchen and have an entire section on our website soon!

While many of the probiotic bacteria won’t survive being cooked, kefir is a great way to add flavor and texture to warm dishes, and makes baked goods extra fluffy!
