What is water kefir? Give your gut the best!
Water kefir or aquakefir, like kombucha, is a fermented, naturally carbonated drink made with and mixture of yeast, good bacteria, milk proteins and complex sugars. Those sugars disappear in the fermentation process, in their place you get a carbonated drink: with bubbles.
The probiotics remain in the drink, an excellent mix of Lactobacillus, Lactococcus, Streptococcus and Leuconostoc. Kefir also contains a lot of right lactic acid and a wide range of vitamins: vitamins B1, B2, B6, C, D and H (biotin) are present in abundance.
Unique brewing process: aquakefir without sugar!
We chose this product because of a unique feature: our Belgian aquakefir producer has developed a unique process of fermentation in the bottle, whereby no less than 99.98% of the sugar is converted into a naturally sparkling drink and healthy vitamins.
Aquakefir is cold brewed, it is a raw and unpasteurized product. Of course it is also very suitable for people with diabetes.
Probiotic: low budget to pamper your intestines without expensive drugs or supplements.
The great advantage of water kefir is that it is probiotic. Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that live in the gut and play a crucial role in almost all aspects of health. But mainly it is about gut flora and digestion. After all, most bacteria do not survive the gastrointestinal and small intestinal processes and are dead before they reach the colon. Probiotics, however, arrive alive and well in the colon to make their extremely important contribution to our health.
Probiotics we also know from yoghourt and kombucha, for example, but kefir contains its own particularly large variety of bacteria and yeasts.
Sugar-free, dairy-free and vegan kefir
Originally, kefir was made from milk, just like yoghourt. Our water kefir, on the other hand, we make with water, the ferment and figs that provide the necessary sugars, and lemons. Equally potent, and at the same time dairy-free and therefore vegan. With water kefir you choose the the perfect way to increase your amount of probiotics and keep your gut healthy, all without animal ingredients.
Aquakefir: with ingredients from organic and biodynamic agriculture
Our aquakefir is brewed from 100% organic ingredients, without any additives. No sugar substitutes such as aspartame are added either.
This product is not only organic - so without the use of artificial fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides - but, goes one step further : throughout its production, the principles of biodynamic cultivation are applied: a holistic approach to agriculture. Biodynamic agriculture applies higher values in the process of growing food.
Indeed, in biodynamic agriculture, the main emphasis is on the natural cultivation of the soil, because the soil is essential to the quality of the product, not the farming itself.
