Water Kefir Mackay This delicious fermented beverage is now available in Mackay. Water Kefir

Q. What is Water Kefir? A. Q. What ingredients go into making water kefir?

Water kefir is a fermented probiotic beverage made with water kefir grains. Our product is natural with no artificial flavours, colourings or preservatives. Ingredients consist of water kefir grains, filtered water, sugar, lemon, lemon grass, ginger, fig and black strap molasses. Why is kefir good for your health? It is loaded with valuable enzymes, beneficial bacteria (probiotics), vitamins and minerals. Probiotics support proper digestion, synthesis of vitamins and minerals, and your immune system by warding off foreign and harmful bacteria, yeast and viruses. It has thus long been known to promote and aid in digestion and overall health. What is the advantage of taking Kefir instead of a probiotic supplement? Fermented products such as kefir are considered functional foods because they offer enzymes, pre-digested nutrients, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, calories/energy and billions of probiotics. Probiotic pill supplements contain just one or a select variety of bacteria, and usually that's it. It's always better to eat something in its whole form when possible, because each part makes the other more digestible. What strains of yeast and probiotic bacteria does water kefir contain? The probiotics can vary with each batch as the strains may include numerous subspecies and variants. Water kefir is typically composed of billions of beneficial bacteria from the following strains such as Acetobacter, Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, Pediococcus and Leuconostoc bacteria with yeasts from Saccharomyces, Candida, Kloeckera and possibly other minor yeasts. How much water kefir should I drink? It’s smart to start fermented products in small amounts. Start with 1/8 cup per day and increase up to 1 cup over a couple of weeks. A usual amount is around 1-2 cups daily. Some people struggle with it at first, possibly because of the large population of probiotics. Drinking too much at first may have a cleansing effect. It is a wise idea to take it slowly to let your body and digestion get acquainted with it. Q: How long can I store the water kefir in the refrigerator? Up to 1 month

Q. How much alcohol does water kefir contain? As with all cultured and fermented foods, a small amount of naturally occurring alcohol is typically present in the finished product. However the amount is so small it is insignificant.

Dear WKM followers and customers. Sorry to disappoint; unfortunately, I need to pause the markets for the next three weeks after this week as my dad isn't well and I need to visit my parents. I sincerely apologise for the inconvenience. Hope to see you at Wed 6:30 am Mackay Riverside Market and Sat 6:00 am Mackay Showground Markets What's at the Mackay Showground Market to top up your water kefir this week. An alternative option is that Mifsud's Fresh Fruit Barn sells Buchi Kombucha probiotic drinks, which also taste nice. Or, when Matthew Llewellyn is home, happy to take orders (please email admin@tranquilyogamackay.com.au or text 0421082985 to organise how to get the Kefir drink) until the water kefir stock runs out.🙏🏻

Hello there to all of you Kefir Lovers far and wide!!

Just a little reminder that the 'Grab & Go' cups are still available at each and every market.

This is good introduction to those of you who may not be completely on board with the whole 'gut health' thing as yet.

Being slightly diluted, this is the perfect way to try this amazing - and surprisingly tasty - 'lil drink.

Packed with 30 more strains of probiotics than in a capsule you would usually purchase from your local pharmacy or health food store.
AND, because its liquid-based, it hits your tummy immediately which is exactly what it is designed to do and where you need it the most!

So, the G&G drinks supplied are diluted with soda water (approximately 1/3 soda to kefir ratio) and a decent amount of ice to keep it nice and cool for you while you wander around and browse the other market stalls.
Then on your way home, stop by and grab yourselves an undiluted bottle to have all for yourself.
Sharing is optional here 😉

Not only are you doing your gut a huge favour, but you are also hydrating your body at the same time. Seems like a Win-Win situation to me just quietly.... 🙂

Also, in case you weren't aware, we offer same day refills for a lower cost.
Re-using your cup is such a great idea too!

So, next time you drop by to say hello, grab a cold drink to go while you're' at it.

Cheers

Ash & Jo

My Story

5 years ago I was diagnosed with Coeliac Disease. This was the start of my mission to learn as much about gut health as I could. Every spare chance I had, I would read about the gut microbiome and how it impacts upon our mental, emotional and physical health. Throughout my readings many people from many countries talked about an amazing drink which was full of natural probiotics. There were so many success stories, I had to find this drink. It is known by many names - Water Kefir, Tibicos, Japanese Water Crystal, Sea Rice, etc. I found a lady in Victoria who had some Water Kefir grains and she kindly sent me some so I could make the drink myself. I am healthier than I have ever been, and by sharing my grains and water kefir drink, I have already helped so many people with digestive issues and low immunity. My husband is very healthy and also can’t live without it. He was already feeling great before consuming it, but now he feels amazing! So you don’t have to be sick to consume it. Having a healthy gut really is the key to having a healthy life.
