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.

Hello,

Those of you who know me, are aware of my current situation of selling this ‘lil biz of mine that I love so much with some pretty big changes coming my way very soon.

It’s been a massive year for me personally, with some really hard stuff I’ve dealt with regarding family situations etc.

I’m not going to go into that of side of things on here though - some of you are aware - and some of you are not.

So, this current situation now kind of leaves me with a bit of a dilemma with future plans.

If this biz doesn’t sell before my house does (which will be going on the market early next year) I will have no choice but to dissolve it.
Sell off what I can and move on.
I am planning on relocating out of town.
Moving WKM is definitely not an option for me.

I’d like to leave this very well established gig of mine here to continue to supply the kefir goodness you’re all used to and love.
Over 10 years now!
And completely local too.
How awesome is that? 🥰

This will actually break my heart, as I’ve worked SO hard since purchasing from the beautiful Renae, and built it up as much as I possibly can single-handedly whilst juggling two part time jobs, and paying off a home loan all on my own.
It’s been a pretty wild ride so far!
And I’m still hanging in there.

Like I said - it’s been a HUGE year for me. 😳
And it’s not over just yet either! 😏

BUT, at the end of the day, I have no control over what happens next, and I am incredibly proud of myself for achieving what I have at this point and time in my life - both personally and professionally.

And I’ve loved every single second of the support I have from each and every single one of you amazing humans.
I’ve formed some really beautiful friendships throughout this entire journey.

Never fear though!

I will continue to keep on keeping on until it’s no longer possible for me to achieve this with the impending sale of my house.

Markets will continue as per usual until I make the announcement that I’ve sold to the next Kefir Legend.

**photo from my recent break.
My first proper days off in a whole year, very short but much -needed.

Cheers and much love to you all

Good morning! 🙂

You’ll see this cheeky face once again bright and early tomorrow.

Unfortunately I won’t have my Watermelon & Mint flavour this week.
If I’m unable to source decent and good quality mint, it just doesn’t happen. 🤷‍♀️ Sorry.

All the other flavours are available though, so you’ll still have plenty to choose from.

See ya tomoz!

Hello!

I’m back!
Did ya miss me? 🤪

Just a ‘lil shoutout to my friends who helped with markets while I was taking a much-needed break.

Big cheers to the lovely Jade, Julie & Brett.
I really couldn’t have managed this time off without you all.
So Thankyou ! 🥰🥰🥰

I won’t be at Sarina Markets tomorrow btw.
Sorry to disappoint.

But there’s not quite enough kefir leftover for another market, and this heat is insane.

See you all next week for the usual spots though.

Cheers
Jo

Howdy folks!

While I’m away this week having some time off before I break myself, I’ll have all the usual flavours available at both markets :

The gorgeous Jade is running Mackay Farmers' Market on Wednesday from 6.30am.

Then, on Sat I’ll have the beautiful Julie and her handsome hubs Brett running my Sat stall @ Mackay Showground Markets from 6am.

I’ll be back by then and may make a late appearance…..
I probably won’t sleep in anyway lol 😂

We had an official complaint from a lovely gentleman about this billboard. He claimed he’d seen it in a station and was absolutely disgusted and demanded it be taken down. We explained it was never up. Sometimes the complaints will be false.

Hello,

just a little note to say I’ll be away next week for a much-needed break.

The lovely Jade will be running my Wed stall for me Mackay Farmers' Market though, so you won’t miss out!

I got you all covered here. 🥰

Sat Showground Markets is a TBA as yet, depending on how late I arrive back Friday night, and also how organised I’ll be .
But I’ll do my best 🙂

Sunday Showgrounds I will hopefully be attending if I’m sorted.

Cheers
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.
