ORGANIC CAUCASIAN MILK KEFIR GRAINS -

The picture above is of my own MILK KEFIR mother-culture made with pure raw goat's or cow's milk. They are very happy and healthy. The Kefir grains for sale are from my own grains that have multiplied. These are not dehydrated kefir but fresh and healthy grains. They have been grown in a smoke and pet free environment. This is a quality culture.


Cows milk works just as well as the goats milk. You can also use Organic goats or cows milk from the supermarket. Supermarket brand milk will work too but produces less good enzymes.


 


The portion for sale produces 1 litre of healthy Kefir over 12 to 24 hours depending on the weather. Do not use a yoghurt maker as it makes the milk too warm.


I email detailed instructions for the Milk KEFIR GRAINS. Fresh kefir grains travel very happily when well packed for their journey. They will work for you as soon as they are put into fresh milk unlike dehydrated grains which may take a few days or weeks to produce grains that you can see . Kefir is a unique fermented milk drink, more correctly healthy food, used for generations in Asia and revered for its health promoting properties. Real kefir can be produced only by traditional methods at home and only from original grains. These original grains, slightly yellowish "cauliflower" like things, are cca 5000 years old bacterial culture originating either from the Caucasian Mountains or monasteries in Tibet.


 


These real kefir grains are complex symbiotic colony containing more than 35 probiotic bacteria proven highly beneficial to humans. Kefir is considered a nutritious drink suitable for inclusion in special diets and in the therapy of gastrointestinal disorders. Kefir is very similar to cultured buttermilk, yogurt and any other fermented milk.


The gross composition and caloric value are very similar to that of milk, except that about one-quarter of the 5 percent lactose will have been converted to lactic acid. This will be of benefit to lactose-intolerant persons.


Furthermore, the bacteria contained in the kefir will provide lactase, the enzyme in short supply in lactose-intolerant individuals.


In addition, kefir contains 0.01 to 0.1 percent ethanol and 1 percent titratable acidity.


 


Wherever available in the world, kefir is considered an aid in the therapy of gastro-intestinal disorders. Evidence of success in such treatment is largely based on centuries of anecdotal observations.


 


Kefir organisms have not been widely studied, and controlled studies with kefir and consumers have not been conducted.


The organisms that have received the most attention by health scientists are Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum. These organisms appear to have several effects including: better lactose digestion, control of pathogenic or otherwise undesirable intestinal microorganisms, reduction in blood serum cholesterol, reduction in colon carcinogens, and immune system stimulation to resist infections.




JAPANESE WATER KEFIR CRYSTALS / TIBICOS

On offer is 1 tablespoons of Water crystals to make 1/2 litre of Water Kefir. These are from my own supply of crystals as I have excess to my needs. You will have ample to start your water kefir fermenting your probiotic drink. These water crystals will multiply with care and you will have ample to share with family and friends.

These Water crystals have been grown in a smoke free and pet free environment.


People who do not wish to consume dairy or have a Vegan type diet may find that water kefir provides the living pro-biotics without the need for dairy or tea cultured products, like kombucha. Since the finished product, if bottled, will produce a nice carbonated beverage it provides a nice alternative to sweet soda drinks for children and adults alike.


Tibicos, also known as tibi, water kefir grains, sugar kefir grains, Japanese water crystals and California Bees, are a culture of bacteria and yeast held in a polysaccharide matrix created by the bacteria.


As with kefir grains, the microbes present in tibicos act in symbiosis to maintain a stable culture. Tibicos can do this in many different sugary liquids, feeding off the sugar to produce lactic acid, alcohol (ethanol), and carbon dioxide gas which carbonate the drink (i.e. makes it bubbly).


Tibicos are found around the world, with no two cultures being exactly the same. Typical tibicos have a mix of Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, Pediococcus and Leuconostoc bacteria with yeasts from Saccharomyces, Candida, Kloeckera and possibly others. Lactobacillus brevis has been identified as the species responsible for the production of the polysaccharide (dextran) that forms the grains.


Take this drink with any liquid on an empty stomach without adding flavoring or sugar.


Drink it regularly. It is good for arthritis, migraines, cancer, heart, digestive system, liver, muscles, nerves, eyes, skin, lungs, kidneys,and blood. In addition it keeps body temperature regulated, and drinking it helps alcoholics to quit.


Tibicos (Chinese Mushrooms) are known by many different names in every part of the world. Tepache, corn beverage, California Bees, Water Kefir Crystals, Wasserkefir, Piltz, Kefir di frutta, Colonch and rapaddura are just a few. They are also referred to as the Drink of the Prophet, and the grains of the Prophet Mohammed,


There are many stories associated with the discovery of these as well. Stories dealing with the miraculous benefits and the giving or passing on of the grains to those in need.


It is said that Mother Therese of Calcutta once traveled to Tibet and met the monks and masters of that region who respectful of her work gave her these translucent gels hence the name Tibetan Mushrooms.
