Also referred to as tibicos, Japanese water crystals, or ‘tibi’, ginger-beer plant, Japanese beer seeds, and a great many other world names, Water Kefir is just a probiotic liquid connected to various health advantages, including to improve immunity.

Studies show a 250 ml glass of water kefir can contain around 2.5 billion good microorganisms. They're mainly separated into three categories:
Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae, S. florentinus, S. pretoriensis, etc.)
Lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus casei/paracasei, L.b. harbinensis, L.b. hilgardii, etc.)
and Acetic acid bacteria (A. orientalis, A. lovaniensis and A. fabarium, etc.)
Water Kefir Fermentation Method
Through our lacto-fermentation the Water Kefir micro-organisms consume the Organic cane sugar and minerals during fermentation. During this method the probiotic concentration (LAB, Amino acid and yeast probiotics) of the Water Kefir increases and the sucrose decreases as the sugar and minerals is consumed by the Water Kefir grains to create mainly simpler sugars, beneficial bacteria, yeasts, lactic acid bacteria (LAB), acetic acid bacteria (AAB), Amino acids, carbon dioxide, along with enzymes, and also B and K vitamins.
