A Dessert that is Healthy for You: Lifeway Kefir #LifewayProBugs

I am always on the lookout to find a healthy dessert alternative.  And, I think that Lifeway Kefir Frozen Probugs is going to be the answer. I found them at my local Whole Foods.  A 6 Pack of Frozen Probugs costs about $4.99-$5.99, and comes in three flavors.

 I have tried to offer them Kefir as a drink before but I was turned down.  Kids can be funny like that.  They wouldn’t even taste it.  I was so glad to hear that they are now making

I also do not like to “hide”  good things into other foods such as veggies.  My girls actually enjoy their vegetables and I do not want to trick them.  So, I was lucky  and happy to see that the packaging for the Lifeway Frozen Kefir was very child friendly. I am happy to see that Frozen ProBugs looks just like all the other types of frozen desserts with colorful images.   Since they they thought they were having an ice pop, they chose the flavor they wanted to try and started eating.

So glad to see a happy face as they tried this healthy dessert.  My 7 year old said it was “Fruitytastical”.

I’ll take it that it means she really likes it.  My 3 year old started to roll it up to make sure that she was able to squeeze every last drop out.  So often, kids choose a not so good product because it is visually appealing.  After they told me they liked it, I then told them that it was called kefir and it was very good for them.

My oldest wanted more information.  She started reading the box to see what this was all about.

 

You too might be wondering what exactly is kefir?

• Filled with more beneficial cultures than other fermented milk products such as yogurt or buttermilk.

• Cultured for 14 to 16 hours, whereas most yogurts are cultured for just 2 to 3 hours. It’s that extra time that gives Kefir its high probiotic activity count (7-10 billion CFUs per serving) and its delicious effervescent taste.

• Made with organic milk from grass fed cows, free of rBGH (Bovine Growth Hormones) and antibiotics.

• An ideal milk substitute for infants, pregnant women, nursing mothers, convalescents and the elderly.

• A good remedy for digestive problems such as colitis and IBS, and is particularly helpful in reestablishing necessary intestinal microflora that may have been destroyed by antibiotic or other medical treatment.

• Available in 12 flavors in lowfat, nonfat, whole milk, children’s (ProBugs™), both lowfat and whole milk organic, and lowfat organic varieties under the Helios brand.

• Produced in 32 and 8 ounce bottles found in the dairy section of supermarkets, grocery stores, gourmet shops, delicatessens, and convenience stores.

• All of Lifeway’s products are gluten free.

 

 

 

I will definitely be buying Lifeway Frozen ProBugs Kefir again.  It has so many healthy benefits AND my girls enjoyed the taste very much!   Maybe, now they will try other Lifeway Kefir products.o
