Consumers seeking a healthy lifestyle are increasingly favoring fermented foods rich in beneficial bacteria for gut health. Kefir is an ideal choice due to its high probiotic content, which supports gut health, aids digestion, and enhances the immune system.

Kefir, a fermented product made from milk and kefir grains—a symbiotic culture of yeast and bacteria—is an excellent example of such a health-enhancing option.
