About Our Water Kefir on Phuket island in Thailand
Also known as tibicos, Japanese water crystals, or ‘tibi’, ginger-beer plant, Japanese beer seeds, and a great many other world names, Water Kefir is really a probiotic liquid connected to various health benefits, including to improve immunity.
Once fermented, Water kefir is full of probiotics, valuable enzymes, beneficial acids, magnesium, folate, vitamin k, electrolytes, B-vitamins (including B-12) and many minerals.
Water Kefir also has a wide variety of beneficial probiotics! Although the strains vary from culture to culture, nearly 70 kinds of microorganisms are available in water kefir grains.
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 Fermenting Process
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 whilst the sugar and minerals is consumed by the Water Kefir grains to make mainly simpler sugars, beneficial bacteria, yeasts, lactic acid bacteria (LAB), acetic acid bacteria (AAB), Proteins, co2, along with enzymes, and also B and K vitamins.
