Kefir Novice!! Questions...

[Guest guest]

Boy, I have lots of them. It seems my kefir grains have grown a tablespoon and a

half since I recieved them on Monday... is that possible? Sheesh! Anyway, my

question is this- if I strain the kefir and take the whey out and eat it like

yogurt does it still have the probiotic properties? My kids are not eating it(2

and 4 years. I am getting discouraged. My son was drinking the store bought

lifeway- Strawberry and Peach, but now he wont drink mine... URG. Any

suggestions? Any recipe suggestions. ANYTHING. I am not gonna give up, but I

must admit this is getting frusterating. He needs this for his skin badly-

eczema, psoriasis symptoms. Since I stopped giving him the store bought kefir

the skin has started getting bad like it was before he started on it. Thanks so

much in advance.
