RE: Making Kefir for Health
To the best of my knowledge, one can not make kefir without the grain, as it provides the 40+ strains of probiotics that make it kefir. One can make farmers cheese, which is similar, but without the probiotics. I am glad you found grains and hope you enjoy the cheese. By far the easiest to make of any I've tried.
I make kefir from kefir which I had gotten from a friend. Here they sell a kefir powder to make kefir with. It is probably less superior than kefir made with grains. It makes more like kefir milk.
Yes, this is true. I've heard they don't survive very long. The best bet is to contact a WAPF chapter leader in your area and see if you can get a healthy grain that way. That's what I did all those years ago.
Wonderful. Thanks for the information. I will get my hands on some grains.
Thanks so much!
