About Maziwa mala

Maziwa Mala, a traditional fermented milk product from East Africa, is a popular staple in Kenyan cuisine. Made through natural fermentation of whole milk, it has a tangy, creamy flavor and smooth texture. Packed with probiotics, Maziwa Mala supports gut health and digestion, while being a rich source of calcium, protein, and essential vitamins like B12 and riboflavin. Its probiotic content boosts immunity and may help improve nutrient absorption. While typically made from full-fat milk, which offers energy and vital fats, its high fat content may not suit those watching their calorie intake. Maziwa Mala is versatile, commonly consumed as a refreshing drink, used in recipes like marinades, or paired with dishes such as ugali. Its natural ingredients and health benefits make it a nutritious addition to diets when enjoyed in moderation.
