  • Because there is yeast, and sugars do they produce alcohol?

  • Yes, but only if you leave it out to ferment over a significant amount of days and weeks, etc.. Even then, to get a significant amount of alcohol you would have to distill it. That is why, kefir is only fermented for 24-48 hours, in that short amount of time the coconut water is fermented and there is only small traces of alcohol.

  • Excellent explanation...as always! You are becoming my "source" for raw food information and probiotics...hahaha :-)

  • Awesome!!!! :)

  • Thank you for doing these probotic vids. I recently began my raw journey and have yet to try fermented foods. The raw saurerkraut just dont sound appealing right now, but i can and will definitely do either one or both of these coconut recipes. You talked about sour foods, I began juicing rhubarb...how do sour foods compare to the fermented foods?? Just wondering. Thanks Natasha.

  • Thank you StarFlower99654 for the comment. Wonderful news about your raw journey and great that you are experimenting with fermented food. One thing I can suggest with the saurerkraut is to add a little to your salad, not so much that it over powers it, but just a little. As for sour food, I consider fermented food to be sour food. I've never juiced rhubarb, let me know how it tastes!!

  • Hi Natasha, I really liked your video and subscribed. You are obviously very passionate about what you do and have a great personality. I am anxious to try and make some coconut milk kefir. PS: Two month in Hawaii? Must be nice. :)

  • But when you blend it with something, doesn't that destroy it? You said no metal, but the blender blade is out of metal?

    Also what happens if you just drink it fermented by itself? Without putting anything in it? Is that also probiotic? Just taking the juice and let it sit for a few weeks? Do you have any data on that?

  • The 30 dollar overpriced corporate probiotic capsules never worked as well as the 3 dollar bottle of fresh Kefir. Are the corporations ripping off consumers? Will an inexpensive bottle of Kefir provide high quality probiotics? Is it necessary to spend 50 bucks for pills?

  • Great video btw, i just stumbled across you by accident and i have to say i'm very impressed. I look forward to getting stuck into your blog :)

  • Is kefir (milk or coconut) good for people with candida? Ive heard some people say its not because it still has some sugar in it, is this right?

  • hi i use to buy kefir in shops back in east europe where i use to live. now im in new zleand and they dont sell kefir here. would you recomend drinking kefir that is made with milk as i am use to that one and dont know if i can find young conunuts here. if so can you please tell me how to make it the best posible way. thanks heaps for your videos!

  • I am in Love with this woman! 

  • Natasha,

    I trecently followed along with your video and made coconut keifer and yogurt. Thank you! They turned out great...however :/ ..on my second try with the yogurt--it turned 'funky'...the yogurt looks a bit like cottage cheese, and is very sour. Is there anything I can do with it? Any idea what may have happened?

    Thank you!

  • Hey Natasha I am loving your vids, finding them really helpful in aiding my transformation to eating raw and healthful foods. I have watched your vids on kefir (kay - fair) and just wondering if you could please do a vid on the differences between: Kombucha, Caspian Sea Yogurt (Villi), nMilk Kefir Grains, and water kefir ? Thanks for your vids! always look forwards to hearing what you have to say! :)
