The Origins Of Kefir And Kefir Grains
These people, who were said to have consumed large quantities of kefir, were known to have very long healthy life spans. Life spans of over a hundred years old were nothing out of the ordinary. Kefir became increasingly popular in Russia and in the former Soviet states. And its popularity today is still growing as countries like Sweden, Norway, Switzerland and Denmark are manufacturing kefir on a commercial scale. But the real question we should be asking ourselves is not where kefir, the fermented milk beverage, originated from, but where kefir grains originated. For without kefir grains in the first place, there wouldn’t be kefir. Unfortunately, the origin of kefir grains has long been surrounded by mystery that continues up to today. The most well known legend is that the Prophet Mohammed gave the people in Caucasian Mountain region these grains and thought them how to use it. These same grains then became a sign of wealth and was handed down through generations. Another take of the Kefir Grain’s origin is that it is manna. The same manna that God miraculously supplied during the Israelites’ 40 years of wandering in the wilderness as mentioned in the Jewish Torah and also the Christian Bible. Even until now, it has been a mystery but there is one thing about Kefir that will never be a mystery. It’s known for the many benefits it gives the person that consumes it. It has been said to cure not only skin diseases, provides natural anti aging compounds, produces cancer fighting properties and even speeds up your metabolism so you can lose weight. So try it out and see the difference. There is literally nothing in this world quite like kefir.
