Drink healthy: ferments to kick off the new year | Fiona Beckett on wine
Fri 1 Jan 2021 09.00 EST If you’re kicking off the new year with a resolution to drink more healthily, fermented drinks such as kefir and kombucha may be on your radar. But are they as good for your gut as they’re made out to be? For those not familiar with them, kombucha is fermented tea, while kefir is a fermented drink that can be made from milk or water, and in both cases they’re kicked off by a starter culture that is rich in probiotic bacteria, which are held by some to promote a healthy digestive and immune system.
