Thank you for your interest in Kefir Queen products. Here at Kefir Queen we produce quality products in small batches. We start by selecting the freshest produce straight from the farmers market or directly from the farmer :) We then wash, chop and massage these by hand while we chat, sing and listen to the universe, totally loving the procedure from start to finish. Being a lover of recycling and conscious procedures, Kefir Queen recycle jars and bottles donated from the community, use recycled paper for our labels and commit to low or no miles food. Every Saturday we set up shop at the Mossman Community Markets to share, teach and learn with inspiring members and visitors to our diverse far northern community.

Fermentations are ancient rituals that humans have been performing for many generations. The process preserves the food making it more digestible and nutritious creating microbial diversity that keeps your gut healthy. They offer beneficial bacteria, enzymes, pre-digested nutrients, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, calories/energy and billions of probiotics to boost our immune system and restore good digestion. As well as being potent detoxifiers they contain much higher levels of probiotics than supplements.
As you age your healthy gut flora diminishes and your stomach becomes less acidic, you can achieve optimal health prevent rapid aging & disease’s of all kinds by; adding living fermented foods to your diet; eating more plant based and being aware of refined foods.

Fermented foods are created in an anaerobic condition with the action of microorganisms; the conversion of sugars and carbohydrates into organic acids. Organic acids have PH neutrality which inhibits the growth and even destroys PH sensitive bacteria. Microorganisms live in every part of the biosphere and are an imperative part of human wellbeing. Microflora as they are often called digest food into nutrients our bodies can absorb, protect us from potentially dangerous organisms, and teach our immune system how to function.
