Peach Melba Smoothies

We’ve got a peach of a recipe to get your weekend started right. Our Peach Melba Smoothie is a blissfully rich and creamy treat inspired by a classic dessert. The blend of Lifeway Kefir and Lifeway Farmer Cheese delivers a double dose of probiotics, plus it gives this drink a perfect velvety texture. We mix in a medley of fruit and a drop of vanilla for added flavor and give it a good whirl in the blender. Add something new to your smoothie routine, and give this gut-healthy option a try!

Cultured Dairy: The Nutrition Benefits You Need to Know

With increasing research linking the correlation between probiotics, gut health, and immunity, it’s no secret that the integrity of our gut is vital to our health. Although additional factors such as stress, antibiotic usage, and individual health conditions can contribute to the condition of our gut, a focus on healthy food choices is one of the easiest ways to support the microbiome.

Several studies have shown a strong association between the gut-brain-microbiota. Probiotics introduced to the gut have been found to support immunity, improve 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. Lifeway Farmer Cheese is also a great source of all these nutrients, just in a different format for all the cheese lovers out there.
