Plain Kefir
Kefir is a complex fermented milk product containing bacteria and yeast, and is recommended by Canada’s Food Guide for its calcium content. With over 37 billion bacteria per 100 ml more than any yogurt it’s the champagne of probiotic milk beverages.
The history and tradition of kefir are as old as its reputation as a health product. In the countries of the one-time Soviet Union, kefir was used to treat stomach ulcers, gastric illnesses, chronic enteritis, bronchitis and pneumonia.
As with most other probiotic products, a dose of kefir is recommended daily for its full benefits to take effect. You’ll be pleasantly surprised by its effervescence. Liberté Kefir contains 20 different kinds of bacteria and yeast. A single tablespoon (15 ml) a day yields 5 billion beneficial bacteria.
Kefir was the subject of a report on the Radio-Canada program L’Épicerie on Wednesday, March 24, 2010. Click the link to demystify kefir’s fabrication and probiotic content, and for some interesting recipe ideas.
Plain Kefir: the purist’s version is entirely natural. You can include this refreshing effervescent probiotic drink to your daily diet! Mix it with fruits, drink it by the spoonful or the glass or pour it over your favourite cereal!

Hi, I have been using Kefir for about a month now and really enjoy it... I was wondering if it is necessary to keep the product in its original container?? Is it safe to keep it in a glass jar instead? I find the lid of container comes off quite easily and am afraid of spills in my refrigerator....
It is a good idea to transfer the kefir in a glass jar and prevent accident in the refrigerator. Thanks for sharing it.
