There is nothing quite like milk kefir – it really is a delicious drink. It closely resembles a yoghurt drink but is packed full of extra probiotics.
Milk kefir is a fermented beverage and is made by leaving special reusable living cultures, called kefir milk grains, in milk to ferment for 24 hours.
The result is a slightly tart tasting like fizzy feta, creamy drink that is both great to drink and healthy too. The grains eat the sugar from the milk – the lactose, to turn that into probiotics. So kefir is a dairy product that lactose intolerant people may be able drink without symptoms.

We now sell a range of Water filters From Zerowater
Tap water can contain a lot of dissolved solids and some other filters simply struggle to remove them. Unlike Brita Filter's three-stage system, ZeroWater's Five-Stage Filtration System removes virtually all dissolved solids.
The FDA requires the TDS level in PURIFIED bottled water to reach 000-010ppm. ZeroWater is the only filter in its class to achieve this level. ZeroWater's first layer of filtration, activated carbon and oxidation reduction alloy removes the chlorine taste you are accustom to with tap water.
The Ion Exchange stage ..read more
