Sounds ok, but......
I just made my own kefir drink with the following:
1. Six ounces of my own freshly made raw milk kefir (yes, we can get whole
raw milk in Vermont, if we are willing to drive to the farm (only ten minutes
away)).
2. one teaspoon of Vermont maple syrup which I buy right from the sugaring
house (the owner is a friend and ONLY USES A WOOD FIRE TO BOIL DOWN THE
SYRUP!!! I mention this because, even in Vermont, some places now use oil
fired boilers and the taste and quality can't compare to the wood fired
product. The wood fires take a huge amount of more effort (cutting wood,
hauling, feeding the fire), but the syrup is worth it!!!)
3. LARGE handful of freshly picked blueberries (it's still blueberry season
in Vermont - we are putting gallons of them in our freezer for winter time use)
Blend all together for a minute or so and drink immediately.
You want delicious......
I doubt any store bought product could even come close.

Hello...
Just thought I'd butt in here for a minute.
I buy and drink a product called Lifeway lowfat Kefir Probiotic which
contains 10 live and active kefir cultures one of which is L rhamnosus...I
assume this is the probiotic Brooks is speaking about.
Another note of interest is the family who makes this product is from
Russia. They are also farmer pledged.
You can go to their website and read all of the info about their
products and also print out coupons. You can also find stores that carry it.
I drink this each and every day and find it to be absolutely
delicious...I'm drinking Lifeway Pomegranate flavored kefir smoothie right
now...yum.
Best regards...
Sandy
Live and let live...

Here it is:
"This post relates to a current/on-going investigation we
are prosecuting, relating to more powerful immune system boosters.
One of the more outstanding candidates has demonstrated to be a
member
of the "probiotic" family. The seminal work, originally performed by
the Russians during the Cold War (conducted during investigations
looking for Biological Warfare countermeasures)
focused on members of the Lactobacillus family. Originally identified
as Lactobacillus bulgaricus, this useful strain was, later, more
correctly identified as Lactobacillus Rhamnosus. The D-V strain was
found to be unusually powerful, as an immune system stimulant,when
fractionated to potentiate the cell-wall fragments. Without this
fractionation//lysing (originally conducted by the Bulgarians circa
1970's) , the useful components found inside the cell walls of the
bacterium...remained totally isolated from the surrounding
environment......thus denying the biological environment their
beneficial stimulation.
I post this email to inform the list membership that we
are greatly encouraged by our early results from the intital
investigations. Most especially in the address of the effects upon
potential biological warfare agents--------as well as resisting the
effects of exposure to ionizing radiation. Interestingly, animal
experiments conducted by some Russian labs report a 30X higher immune
resistance among animals treated with the substance (later named
Del-Immune V), than that of untreated animal subjects
used as controls. They were quite successful in "prophylactically"
elevating the immunity in advance of pathogenic exposure/infection.
We have been fascinated and quite surprised at our positive
results....so far. However, it is early in our investigation. I
include one reference ( the URL at the bottom of the page), from amou
ng a multiplicity of advertisers....
which outlines a reasonably acceptable
historical description of the evolution of the Del-Immune product. I
simply do not have the time--or the energy---to outline a more
complete,
accurate history of the efforts involved in developing this line of
research.
I am not endorsing or promoting this product. I only
refer to it because it seems to be the better from among the current
probiotic suppliers of this type of substance. Our, particular
efforts
are concentrating on a single probiotic, namely lactobacillus
rhamnosus. The Del_Immune product appears to contain multiple
components. As our research progresses I will attempt to keep the
membership posted on our results-----positive or negative.

who replied with helpful hints for the chemo & cancer...& if anyone
has what Brooks Bradley posted about a supplement that really boosts the immune
system would you please let me know so I can send that along too. & Thanks
again.. Lois
