About Kefir plain

Kefir Plain is a tangy, fermented dairy beverage originating from Eastern Europe and Southwest Asia. Made by fermenting milk with kefir grains—a combination of yeast and beneficial bacteria—it is rich in probiotics that support gut health and digestion. Beyond probiotics, kefir is packed with essential nutrients, including calcium, vitamin B12, phosphorus, and magnesium, making it a great choice for bone health and energy production. It typically contains a moderate amount of natural sugars and a small quantity of fat, depending on whether it’s made with whole or low-fat milk. Kefir is lauded for its immune-boosting properties and its ability to aid lactose digestion, though those sensitive to dairy products should consume it cautiously. Its creamy texture and tart flavor make it a versatile ingredient in smoothies, salad dressings, or enjoyed on its own as a refreshing drink.
