Kefir is a fermented milk product that originated in Europe. Kefir contains beneficial live bacteria that can colonize the intestinal tract and beneficial yeasts that dominate, control and eliminate destructive yeasts in the body.
Kefir is a rich source of many different vitamins, minerals and essential amino acids that promote healing and repair, as well as general health maintenance. Kefir contains high levels of thiamin, B12, calcium, folates and Vitamin K2. It is a good source of biotin, a B vitamin that helps the body assimilates other B vitamins.
The small curd size of kefir makes it easy to digest and it also contains lactase, the enzyme needed to digest lactose as well as many vitamins and minerals including calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, Vitamin B2 and B12, vitamin K, vitamin A and vitamin D. It also contains Tryptophan, and essential amino acid known for it's relaxing effect on the nervous system.
Cysteine is a non-denatured amino acid found in raw whey, which is the optimal component for the intracellular production of Glutathione by the liver. Glutathione is known as the body's master antioxidant and detoxifier. However, pasteurization denatures Cysteine into Cystine, the latter of which is eleven times less effective as a precursor to Glutathione production by the liver.
