Kefir

What type of die off symptoms did you have from the kefir? I have bought it several times but did not have the nerve to try it. I was too concerned that it would give me a reaction like dairy especially the fruit flavored kefir.


Sue, anything I take that enhances an immune response will make me hurt from head to toe with malaise and fatigue, I'll just back off for a day or two and go back.
The only response I've gotten from the Kefir that I consider bad was heartburn but this went away after a couple of episodes.
The only way to go with the Kefir is with the real grains, its easy to make and even recommended for people with lactose intolerance, you just let it ferment longer and a second fermentation after the grains have been taken from it will make it good food for even diabetics.

I make my own kefir from raw milk and had no symptoms/instant effect as such. Just long term started feeling much better I also eat my home made yogurt. I do not use probiotics and had a +4 +3 for good guys on a cdsa
