Our Kefir
Blue Bay Kefir is a traditionally fermented, non-homogenised probiotic yoghurt product with a mild ‘tang’. Consumed for centuries for its health benefits, Kefir offers many more advantages when compared with regular yogurts.
Kefir Health Benefits
Probiotic levels are 10 times more effective than most yoghurts
The probiotic level or effectiveness of yoghurt is measured by CFUs (colonising forming units). For yoghurt or probiotic kefir yoghurt to have a positive effect on a person’s digestive system it must contain at least 1 billion CFUs per serve, which many yoghurts on the market today do not. Blue Bay Kefir contains over 12 billion CFUs per serve AND this number will continue to grow during its shelf life.
Blue Bay Kefir is made using milk from certified organic producers located in the rolling hills of Gippsland, Victoria. Organic practices including eschewing chemical fertilisers and pesticides are exercised; instead, natural weed and insect control methods are employed.
Kefir contains 3 times more probiotic strains than most yoghurts
Most commercial yoghurts have 3-4 strains of probiotic bacteria. Blue Bay Kefir contains 10 strains. The probiotics in yoghurt and fermented milk brands are only beneficial while it is passing through the intestinal system, meaning they must be consumed every day. Kefir can help sufferers of allergies, diabetes, autoimmune and intestinal disorders and help with day to day intestinal health. Kefir is often recommended by doctors for patients taking antibiotics or having chemotherapy.
