My passion for loving had to begin with myself first!! Mind, body, and spirit!

One of my many passions!
I love to make home made everything as much as possible because:
1: I know what goes in it
2: It's fun
3: It's empowering
4: I love to learning
5: New friendships

So let's start with why I love to make raw kefir, kefir is the one of the highest stain content of probiotic out there.. It has over 31 strains of different probiotics.

Now the thing about probiotics is it a live microorganism it breathes it moves and grows. If you by kefir in the stores it's typically pasteurized in which the process kills the live organisms. It goes the same for any vitamin that is not refrigerated.8

That being said some of you may not know the benefits if probiotics, in a nut shell it helps to balance the help bacteria in our digestion. In essence it helps us to be able to digest more efficiently, and for women it has show to be highly effective with balancing out there flora, aiding keeping them PH balanced. In other words Minimizing yeast infection and bacteria infections.

So moving on all raw product contain all the enzymes and healthy bacteria required to digest. When we pasteurize homogenize we not only take out the nutrients but we kill all the "good bacteria and enzymes" which are required to digest them.

The great thing about kefir even if you have dairy issues the fermentation process you will not have digestion issues, actually you will probably have the opposite effect.

Now the great thing about making you own kefir you can also make so many great thing from it as I have shown in my pics, such as kefir cheese which I will be going over tomorrow and whey pure protein!

Have fun play!!!

The Magic of Tryptophan

  The Magic of Tryptophan Tryptophan, an essential amino acid, is widely known for its role in protein synthesis and as a precursor to serotonin—a neurotransmitter linked to mood regulation and sleep. However, its functions extend far beyond these commonly recognized roles. Recent studies uncover the fascinating involvement of tryptophan in gut health, particularly how gut microbes metabolize tryptophan into compounds that profoundly influence gastrointestinal (GI) function and overall well-being. This article explores the complex interactions of tryptophan in the gut, supported by cutting-edge research. Tryptophan’s "magic" truly begins in the gut, where it undergoes metabolic transformations that result in the production of bioactive compounds such as indole and tryptamine. These compounds, produced by gut microbial enzymes, act as pivotal intermediates influencing GI motility, intestinal secretion, and even immune responses. The gut enzyme tryptophanase, expressed by a var...

The Benefits of Akkermansia for Gut Health and Beyond

The Benefits of Akkermansia for Gut Health and Beyond Akkermansia muciniphila, a name that might sound unfamiliar to many, is a bacterium residing in the human gut that has started to gain recognition in the field of health and nutrition. This bacterium, part of the Verrucomicrobia phylum, plays a pivotal role in maintaining the mucosal lining of the gut, impacting metabolic health, diabetes management, and weight regulation. For nutrition enthusiasts and health professionals, understanding the benefits of Akkermansia can open new doors to optimized gut health and overall wellness. Akkermansia muciniphila is a gram-negative, obligate anaerobic bacterium that specializes in degrading mucin, a component of the mucus lining of the gut. This unique ability positions Akkermansia as a crucial player in maintaining the integrity of the mucosal barrier. According to Cani (2017), the gut microbiota lies at the intersection of various physiological processes, and Akkermansia’s role is no exc...

The Power of Fiber in Your Diet

  The Power of Fiber in Your Diet Introduction In the realm of health and wellness, fiber often assumes the role of the unsung hero. While vitamins and minerals frequently steal the spotlight, dietary fiber quietly performs its vital functions. From managing blood sugar levels to supporting digestive health, the benefits of fiber are manifold. For health enthusiasts and those keen on optimizing their gut health, understanding the different types of fiber and their specific benefits is crucial. What is Dietary Fiber? Dietary fiber, also known as roughage, is the part of plant foods that our bodies cannot digest. Unlike fats, proteins, or carbohydrates, which our bodies break down and absorb, fiber passes relatively intact through our stomach, small intestine, and colon and out of our body. It is primarily classified into two types based on its solubility in water: soluble and insoluble fiber. Each type offers unique benefits and plays different roles in maintaining our overall healt...
