The fermented milk product called Kefir is a refreshing sparkling drink, rich in tradition, inwhich, along with lactic acid fermentation, a slight amount of CO2 is produced. Historical background: Kefir originally comes from the Caucasus, where inhabitants have been consuming thisbeverage regularly from childhood on. The long life expectancy of the Caucasiansand the absence of civilisational diseases have given Kefir its reputation as “the drink of thecentenarians”. Kefir has also been enjoyed in Europe for approximately 100 years.Kefir Vital-Ferment contains freeze-dried Kefir flora: Special mesophilic lactic acid bacteria, yeasts (among others Candida keyfyr), andglucose. Since the microorganisms of the Vital-Ferment do not promote the growth ofthe cauliflower type Kefir grains, no special care is necessary.
