Kefir comes from the Turkish word “keyif," which means “good feeling.” It is a tangy, yogurt-like beverage that contains a wide variety of probiotic bacteria.
Today probiotics are often referred to as “good bacteria” and are increasingly being linked to health benefits, including improving gastrointestinal health, helping conditions like psoriasis and chronic fatigue syndrome, and even potentially playing a role in obesity and mental health. The microbes in our intestine also provide us with a barrier to infection, provide metabolic fuel, and contribute to normal immune development.
