Mojito Water Kefir (750ml)

🧪 Water Kefir and Gut Health

Water kefir is a naturally fermented drink made from sugar water and live kefir grains — a mix of beneficial yeasts and bacteria.

During fermentation, the microbes consume most of the sugar and produce bioactive compounds, carbonation, and billions of live bacteria. These can support your gut health when consumed regularly.

🔍 What the research says:

Water kefir may help support gut microbiome balance

Water kefir contains a mix of live bacteria and yeasts, which in lab models have been shown to increase levels of beneficial gut bacteria like Bifidobacteria.

It has shown anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity in lab studies

Kefir drinks like water kefir may help reduce oxidative stress and inflammation by producing bioactive compounds such as organic acids and polyphenols.

It may help protect the gut barrier

Research using cell models and animals shows water kefir may help maintain the gut lining and reduce inflammation linked to “leaky gut”.

It may offer benefits for metabolism, liver health and weight balance

Preliminary studies (mostly in animals) suggest it may help regulate blood sugar, reduce fat build-up in the liver, and support healthy weight.

Water kefir is not officially classed as a probiotic

This is because specific strains and their effects haven’t yet been studied in large human trials. Still, researchers describe water kefir as a “potential functional food” with positive effects on gut health.

Daily fermented foods can increase gut microbiome diversity and reduce inflammation

A Stanford study found that eating fermented foods regularly — including fermented drinks — increased microbiome diversity and reduced inflammatory markers in just 10 weeks.
