I was reading that kefir would be good for people with ADHD. My son is 7 years old. What is your opinion on that. Please respond if anyone has any info on that. At sherman27@windstream.net

I love your site. Very well put together and interesting! A friend gave me some kefir grains a few days ago and I have been fascinated. Looking forward to reaping the benefits that you enjoy so much.

Sad that we live in a society where you have to throw in a disclaimer about pasteurizing kefir to cover your butt.

@Andrew – Totally agree with you there… i think it has to do with the fact that kefir isn’t “advertised” or “commercialized” enough yet…

“Pasteurized kefir”? That defeats the whole purpose. If one were to pasteurize kefir, one might as well not consume it at all.

Kefir is as safe as yogurt, sauerkraut, beer, wine, vinegar, sour cream, and cheese. Nobody ever asks if those are safe…
