Kefir helps many digest lactose more easily

Kefir, a tangy fermented milk drink, contains diverse probiotics that significantly improve lactose digestion for many. About 65 percent of adults globally struggle with lactose intolerance because their bodies lack enough lactase enzyme to break down milk sugar. The live bacteria and yeasts in kefir, like Lactobacillus, produce lactase during fermentation. This process partially predigests lactose, making it much easier on the gut and reducing symptoms like gas and cramps.
