Kvass: The probiotic powerhouse revitalizing modern health

This unassuming drink is a true treasure trove of health. Kvass is a rich source of probiotics, which help maintain healthy gut flora.

Its composition includes B vitamins, vitamin C, and numerous minerals, including selenium, necessary for proper thyroid functioning, and zinc, which positively impacts hair and nails.

Support for gut microbiota. The probiotics in kvass can support bacterial balance in the intestines, which has a positive impact on the nervous system, among other things. They also significantly speed up metabolism.

• Support for digestive processes. Enzymes produced during fermentation can assist digestion, reducing digestive discomfort. Kvass also aids in the absorption of vitamins.
• Detoxification. Kvass supports detoxification processes in the liver, facilitating the elimination of toxins from the body. Additionally, vitamin E fights free radicals and prevents aging processes.
• Improving immunity. Thanks to probiotics, kvass strengthens the body's immunity, and vitamin C further supports this process. Kvass bacteria also block pathogen development.

Favourable effect on the circulatory system. Kvass helps improve lipid profiles and lower blood pressure. Furthermore, it enhances heart condition.

Kvass is also helpful in treating migraines, muscle pain, diabetes, fungal infections, digestive disorders, cancer, and multiple sclerosis. It is also an effective remedy against arthritis.

However, there are contraindications to consuming kvass. Allergies should be wary of the drink's ingredients - many kvasses found in stores are enriched with various enhancers.

If you haven't tried kvass before, it's worth starting with small amounts and gradually increasing portions to see how your body reacts to it and to get used to its distinctive taste and properties. It's also worth finding your favourite drink among the many types available in stores.

To preserve all probiotic benefits, kvass should be stored in a cool place, preferably in the refrigerator. Importantly, this drink also tastes best when chilled. Remember that its shelf life is only 4 days.
