About Our Water Kefir on Phuket in Thailand
Also called tibicos, Japanese water crystals, or ‘tibi’, ginger-beer plant, Japanese beer seeds, and a number of other world names, Water Kefir is a probiotic liquid associated with 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 includes a wide variety of beneficial probiotics! Although the strains vary from culture to culture, nearly 70 types of microorganisms are available in water kefir grains.
Studies show a 250 ml glass of water kefir can contain as much as 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 process 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), Proteins, carbon dioxide, along side enzymes, and also B and K vitamins.
