Kefir


Ask any counter-cross helpful if kefir, and he replied in the affirmative. In our minds firmly lodged opinion that kefir is able to form a healthy intestinal flora. Because we all know that the human digestive organs in the process of life accumulates a huge amount of bacteria. Clearly, not all of them are useful, and the majority - even the causes of many diseases, stimulates the aging process.

Kefir also includes an army of beneficial bacteria, vitamins and amino acids to help improve their health are not only the intestinal microflora, but also strengthens the immune system, stabilize sleep, nervous system. Yet the common opinion that all illnesses are treated with yogurt and that it is useful for everybody, greatly exaggerated. Let us turn our attention to some important facts about kefir.

1. Kefir - a poor stimulator of mental activity. Any milk-containing product is how, including yogurt, relieves stress and has a relaxing effect on the nervous system. Therefore, in the crucial moments when you need maximum concentration, yogurt - you do not mate.

2. Kefir - a product rather sour. Therefore, people suffering from acidity, its consumption is not recommended at all.

3. Yogurt can make people allergic to milk-products. To solve this problem to eat recommended biokefir.
Do not drink cold or warm yogurt. The product should be at room temperature and drinking it must be in small sips.

4. The principle of the more yogurt, the more health - not true. As the consumption of any useful for the body of the product, standards are important. In the case of yogurt they make 200-400 g per day.

5. If you do own yogurt at home, remember that milk is necessary for it to boil. Otherwise, the risk is too high to get salmonellosis.

6. Keep in mind that the maturation of kefir it accumulates carbon dioxide and alcohol. So after drinking sour milk product of the wheel is not necessary to sit for a few hours.

7. Always look on the fortress kefir. Weak one-day kefir has a laxative effect on the intestine. And the stronger the yogurt, the more it produces digestive juices in the stomach. That is why a strong three-day yogurt is not recommended suffering from an ulcer, gastritis or pancreatitis.

8. If you eat yogurt with the aim to lose weight, choose a minimum fat content of the product (1-1, 5%). The fat yogurt also shows people suffering from swelling due to kidney disease.

9. Pay attention to the composition and appearance of kefir products on supermarket shelves. Recently, the proposed sale of a lot of so-called "dead" yogurt. It is prepared from skim milk, kefir powder disintegrants emmulgatorov, preservatives, stabilizers. I do not doubt, the taste of the beverage will be very similar to a real yogurt, but, of course, that he does not benefit the body will bring. The fact that the yogurt you offer is not alive, you tell him inhomogeneous consistency, presence of lumps. Be sure to pay attention to the packaging of the goods and its name. This can not be called yogurt "kefirchik" or "Kefir drink." All of the options - it's just a marketing ploy that under the guise of kefir "foist" You fake powder.

In addition, always possible, choose yogurt in a glass container, so the shelf life of the product in a package the largest, and its consistency, as they say, is obvious.

10. Classic real yogurt can contain only whole or skim milk and kefir grains. If the package, in addition to these ingredients designated other (for example, a thickener vegetable origin), it already indicates the distortion of the formulation of cooking and may indicate that the milk is removed milk fat was produced artificially enriched vegetable (palm oil, fish oil , marine oil)
