Want to kick off your day with something delicious? Avo-lutely! Our Avocado Almond Smoothie combines the smooth, tangy perfection of Lifeway Kefir with avocado’s buttery richness and the nutty flavor of almonds. Lifeway Kefir and avocados are a dream team for smoothie-making. Blending into a wonderfully smooth texture, this harmonious duo supports gut health by delivering probiotics from the kefir to promote a balanced digestive system, while the prebiotic fibers in the avocado nourish the beneficial bacteria in your gut, making this smoothie a true gut-friendly powerhouse. This is an easy to blend recipe ready in minutes that’s full of nutrient-dense ingredients with healthy fats, fiber, and protein!

Several studies have shown a strong association between the gut-brain-microbiota. Probiotics introduced to the gut have been found to support immunityimprove allergies, and improve digestion.

Studies have shown that reduced diversity of healthy gut bacteria during early years is associated with an increase in food allergies during school-age years. In addition, kefir made from whole milk helps absorb key nutrients such as Vitamins A, D, E, and K. Vitamin K is important because it helps your bones absorb calcium. It’s important to know that kefir contains a special trio: vitamin D, K, and calcium – all three crucial elements to support bone health.
