Donna I’ve been making L.Reuteri for about 5 months. There are L.Reuteri capsules, can taking this is capsules work?
So I use DMSO Dimethyl sulfoxide solution as a carrier for topical magnesium. DMSO Carrie’s substances deep into your skin. It’s used in sports medicine and not enough people know about it. So diluted DMSO solution is what I rub on with a rag and then spray the magnesium onto the skin. DMSO amplifies the healing effects of magnesium. For muscles aches and injuries this has been a live saver for us. I’ll add that I also rub an opened capsule of boron with the DMSO and magnesium and that’s a winning combo!! Boron as you may know enhances absorption of magnesium both topically and orally
Where do the heavy metals fall to. There is nowhere to go except to the bottom on the jar. If you drink all the water you"ve drunk the heavy metals. You need to explain how this works. I really thinks this was fase information saying it removes heavy metals. Where is it going...
I would like to know where the heavy metals go, also. Maybe you filter it after you use the product?
Name of the guest and her company please

Please put in the show notes this guests contact info & web site. We want to buy these products. Thanks
I found them. Wasn’t looking in the right place. Great podcast!
Can you put the name of the soap and how we can purchase it?
if this L. Reuteri yogurt is really that good and beneficial.. why aren't the yogurt mfg's not making and selling it. I checked the yogurt aisle and none of the yogurts has this.
What if i want the drinkable yogurt drink, not the very creamy or scoopable kind?

Anyone from Australia ?
Can I use kefir whey !?🤔
I can't believe this has so many views but so few likes in comparison! Thank you for all the wonderful info and tidbits. I really appreciate how you link to the recipes for me to look at and attempt later, when i can't while listening because I'm driving. Thank you for your time!
I'm new here and I need to get the kefir grains to start my kefir. Anyone help. I live N Ireland.
How can I get the keifer grains. Help.
I have just made my first yogurt and it hasn’t worked out Lots of way and looks like cottage cheese I’m in Australia we don’t have half n half . I did put a bit of extra cream in Can I use this batch for the second batch . I used a yogurt maker for 36 hrs It doesn’t taste nice but do I still eat it . I was so excited Thank you
Is it possible to not have any akkremancia in the gut and if so how do you feed it with apple peels or do you have to get probiotics for that?
Thank you so much!!!❤
One very important note. Yes the organism itself is resilient to heat BUT the enzyme nattokinase is not! If you are eating it for the health benefits of this food you do NOT want to heat it. Again, the organism in natto survives the heat but the enzyme with all the health benefits is destroyed by heat. Just wanted to clear that up. Keep eating natto!!!
This is so easy to make for such great benefits!
Do you know what I'm saying?
Can you post some kefir ice cream in the ninja creami...I just got one and would love to have some ideas
How do you get Blueberry juice??
Donna, I started consuming about 1.5 cups of my homemade milk kefir everyday for about 2 weeks now and I’m noticing that my urine is suddenly cloudy. Could this be the yeast from the kefir I’m consuming? I’ve always been a milk addict and I’ve generally never noticed cloudy urine ever before. I’ve made no other changes to my diet other than kefir. Could this be candida yeast? Thanks.
I have the kefir grains from cultures for health. Not sure if this brand that brand is good or not.
I began making my own kefir last autumn after a tick bite gave me Borreliosis, and I had to take a long course of antibiotics. I have two different kinds of grains, Tibetan and Caucasian. The Tibetan grains are very small and individual. The Caucasian grains are bigger grains than the Tibetan and are like cauliflower, some growing together. Can you please talk about their differences? Thank you.
👍💕💕💕
Can we had a bit of inulin to the thawed out kefir , hate having to buy another problem?
Don't retire from making these you tubes and sharing your info. ❤🎉
I'm making Dr Davis yogurt, making kefir, will learn fermented foods and sourdough bread. You are so helpful and i appreciate your knowledge and sharing it
I'm 66. Oh how i wish i had heard and been more aware of how important your microbiome is. Wasn't till i got Sibo that I've been learning all about this.
Omg... bought a whole bag of potato starch to make the Sibo yogurt. Then a gal said it settles in bottom so i bought the inulin. So happy to hear you mention i can add to smoothies because i had no idea how to use it. You are very informative ❤
And with SIBO they tell us to avoid apples, fiber, only a few nuts at a time. We are between a rock and hard place because i want to build my microbiome but with SIBO we are told to eat low fod map eliminating a lot of good foods
Have my first batch going right now... excited to start this process
do you know where I can buy a warming belt or is a beer type of belt work?
❤❤❤
My kefir pearls/grains are so small compared to when I bought them from you about a year ago, they are very small and about 1 /5th the amount since I bought them , darn it : ( how do I revive it ??
Are there any temperature concerns for shipping kefir grains? Things are starting to warm up and I know they do better in cooler temps so I was wondering if there would be a loss of biodiversity during shipping and if I should try to time it for a cooler time period?
Hi I'm not Donna but I did order Kefir grains from her earlier this May. I live in Florida and its in the 90's in terms of temperature and my Kefir arrived healthy and ready to make Kefir. I added the cold pack to the order and it arrived safely. I've had it for 3 weeks now and its great!
When I started making my own yogurt in a crockpot at first I used lifeway keifer as starter. Later I realized I preferred thicker yogurt so tried Greek, usually store brand live culture, then white mountain Bulgarian yogurt. The sibo blend was my newest one to add and I got some cheapo probiotic supplement recently at a dollar tree of all places of whatever that one id you mention a lot with baffido that starts with a A. Made a yogurt with that believe it or not. So now including the keifer currently in my fridge and the water keifer on my mini deep freezer in my living room in my apt I've got 5 types of yogurt and 2 types of keifer one a yogurt one. Btw, I tend to strain the whey from every yogurt except for keifer and I have once used the whey to ferment a crockpot farmers cheese that was unfermented I made with old milk that was a day or two from spoiling. I made the cheese, pressed it, let it set and sliced it. Then popped in a jar with the whey and some probiotic fiber since I used sibo yogurt whey and fermented in my casori insta pot knock off for 36 hours. Ten out of ten a recipe worth trying again. Also some of my yogurt I've got on hand I made with raw milk and when my snap comes in again I will get some to make the keifer with. And btw, with any of these or fermented veggies pro tip for gakd out there, depends and any fermented veggies or yogurt works great for female yeast infections. I'm in Texas and am on the bus, this time of year that's a major issue but also off and on year around thanx to cycle. Not fun, but I'm avoiding UTI or female cyst again so not really upset about the not fun part.
Thank you for making these informative podcasts. My oldest daughter was pumped full of antibiotics on the day she was born to prevent sepsis due to complications and as a result she has been suffering through stomach issues her entire life. I've been making fermented foods and einkorn sourdough bread for the past 2 months and things seem to be improving. I have yet to make Kefir but I want to add that next.
Aren't you taking kefir?
@@AlokMishra2 not yet.
I have terrible trouble making l reuteri yogurt, i cannot get it to work. Ive tried 4 times, 4 slightly different ways, and according to the book. Been very careful with sterlisation. I cannot figure it out ! Help please
Super informative, thank you very much 🙏🙏🙏
Runny ones. Can u make a smoothie with it?
How does l. Reuteri cultured dairy compare to homemade kefir?
Do you screw the lid on tight or just lay it on top?
Helps me sleep like a baby but I gained weight like the blueberry girl in Willy Wonka, still taking it bc I need SLEEP after 6 years of no sleep.
Hi Donna 😊 I have a question, I make SIBO yogurt or l reuteri yogurt with 2 tablespoons of the last yogurt I made and 2 tablespoons of inulin. After 24 hours at the most it is already set. Is it really necessary to ferment it for 36 hours? My SIBO yogurt smelled strange after 36 hours, I didn't have the feeling that it was edible. I have the impression that it is enough to ferment it for 24 hours. What is your opinion? Sorry for my bad English. Best wishes from Germany. Sigrid 💝
Really!!??? Coffee Kefir!! Awesome.
