The Benefits of Kefir Milk
Easily digested, kefir cleanses the intestines, provides beneficial bacteria and yeast, vitamins and minerals, and complete proteins. Because kefir is such a balanced and nourishing food, it contributes to a healthy immune system and balancing of the gastrointestinal tract. The regular use of kefir can help relieve all intestinal disorders, promote bowel movement, reduce flatulence and create a healthier digestive system. In addition, its cleansing effect on the whole body helps to establish a balanced inner ecosystem for optimum health and longevity. Kefir can also help eliminate unhealthy food cravings by making the body more nourished and balanced. Its excellent nutritional content offers healing and health-maintenance benefits to people in every type of condition.
Myth: The more strains of bacteria in the kefir culture, the better...
Truth:
Milk kefir grains has different strains of bacteria, but the main important strains are the
Lactobacillus
and
Streptococcus
(also known as
Enterococcus
species within the GI tract) species which are similar to the natural flora in our bodies. These predominant strains help stabilize our normal flora and prevent potential bad bacteria that also reside in our GI tract (e.g.
Clostridium
species) from overgrowing and causing gastrointestinal problems or infections.
Secondly, the bacteria will ferment and break down the lactose in the milk, hence it may assist those who have lactose intolerance.
Another important point is that bacterial flora in our gut is important in the absorbing and producing of certain vitamins and nutrients, such as vitamin K. Do you ever wonder why when babies are born they are given vitamin K injections? That's because babies are born without any bacteria within their digestive tract and will not produce any vitamin K, which is essential for the process of blood clotting.
As a medical graduate, these three points are what I have learned to be the greatest importance for probiotic supplements and foods. Don't believe the hype about special blended strains, or even kefir strains with over 50-some types of strains. The major strains listed above are the ones that help keep your flora in check. Try asking the other sellers that are selling grains with 40-50+ strains a list of what those strains are, and also what the importance of those "other strains" are and the research evidence backing their claims regarding those extra strains. I bet you they couldn't say or provide evidence to support.
Your Kefir Shipment
Each order of kefir grains is placed in a heat-sealed bag and encased in recycled cardboard reinforcement to ensure a safe delivery. Our shipments are made via
USPS First Class PACKAGING WITH TRACKING NUMBER
, not First Class Letter Mail! Other sellers try to go cheap in terms of packaging and shipping by placing your purchased grains in ziplock bags and then send the grains in a letter envelope (first class letter mail) without any tracking just so they only have to pay the cost of a stamp for shipping. Those sellers will not know whether the grains arrived or not since there is no tracking, so there isn't even a point to try to contact and ask those sellers for help where the shipment is if there is a mailing problem. It's like rolling the dice and having your grains run through the ringers (literally since the letters actually get squished through sorting rollers and the bags can rupture). Want to know which kefir grains ads are using letter mail? Currently the cost for the cheapest first class packaging with tracking is approximately .00 (go to any local USPS post office to ask or go online to verify for yourself). Any ads for grains being sold for around .00 or less than that and they are probably sending your grains via an envelope... I don't like to take that chance and feel that my buyers deserve to be put at ease in terms of tracking their shipments and how their grains are packaged. For how many cents more, isn't that worth the reassurance? Before you buy, be sure to ask how the grains are sent if it's not clear. You have a right to know that!
Orders purchased will be sent the next business day. Orders purchased Friday through Sunday will be sent out on Monday. Orders purchased Friday through Sunday that has a long weekend (eg due to a holiday), will be sent the first business day of the following week.
Please ensure that your ebay/Paypal address is correct. Seller is not responsible for shipments that are lost/returned due to an incorrect address.
Myth: Expedited shipping and insulated padding is better for the survival of the kefir grains
Truth:
Don't believe the hype about premium delivery regarding padded foam, insulation, or other types of expedited shipping. Kefir grains, like most other normal bacteria, are hardy and will easily survive a week on their own, which is more than enough time that it takes for regular shipment. Bacteria can survive temperatures up to 120-140 degrees fahrenheit (48-60 celsius), so unless the post office is microwaving the shipments prior to delivering them, it's probably safe to say that they will survive. FYI, our bodies are normally at approx. 98.6 degrees and our normal flora have no problems surviving within our digestive system! Secondly, insulated padding will only act as extra thermal retention, possibly raising the temperature of the bacteria inside the package more than necessary. So unless the grains are packed with cooling packets inside the insulation, the insulation is pretty much useless. The only extra padding that the sellers are really promoting is in their pockets.
Each purchase will come with detailed printed instructions on how to care and cultivate your grains. If you have any other questions, concerns, or even your own custom recipes that you would like to share in which you used your grains or milk, please feel free to message me. I would love to hear about your experience and experimentation, as I myself use the kefir on a daily basis.
Return/Refund Policy
30 day free returns/refund for
unopened
kefir grain packets. Once the buyer opens the packets, it is out of the seller's control how the buyer cares for and uses the grains, so grains are considered contaminated, unable to be resold. Therefore, opened kefir grain packets are unable to be returned.
