I’m so happy I found your page. You’re honestly amazing I hope you get so many blessings.
Thanks for your inspirational and life saving advice bro...you get it , you know what we're going through.
So glad I found your channel last night. I clicked on one video and was about to give up 30 seconds in but within 5 mins I had projected you on to the TV and was hooked on the science. I'm excited to get going on this.
Just curious, did u make homemade kefir? And I'd you did, did it work for you?
I like this new convenient way to make this! Good job! I appreciate all the research you do on this! 😃❤️
Thanks, mom!
Recently diagnosed after months of uncertainty thinking it was cancer with all the blood loss my anxiety was at it worst and it made my UC just horrible thank you for taking the time and helping us 🙏🏼
Hey Aaron, did you make kefir and did your symptoms improve with it? I'm new to this and I was wondering how your body reacted when you first started drinking it. If you can pls give me some insight, thanks.
Thank you so much for posting all this information, I am not very well at the moment but I can now see there is positive hope and a way of repairing my gut so I hope to be healing very soon.
Thanks for all the info, you have really turned my life around dude
You're absolutely welcome. Thanks for sharing!
I received my first infusion of Remicade at the end of March. This medicine "put out the fire" in my gut. Remicade was miraculous for me. At the end of March, I also bought this kefir cage after watching this video, and I started making homemade kefir. I've made great progress healing my gut! -Thanks for making this very very helpful video Kenny!
Watching your videos, with their wealth of information, has really given me a new found hope for a full recovery. Much love & respect brother 🙏
Happy to do it, thank you for the kind words! Wishing you all the best.
So happy I found you early on in my journey! So much improvement so quickly!
Can you tell me a bit about your improvement and findings
Thank you so much. You seem very genuine and very conscientious.
Been making my own kefur and straining it with a strainer for about a year. Never saw this contraption before and after your video just ordered one. Thanks for the tip!
Where did you order the jar?
THANK YOU for all the information! ☺ You speak quickly!
The little "cage" inside to hold the kefir kernels is so clever! It's such a big job to strain out the kefir "kernels" and to keep everything perfectly clean. I'm going to try a tea buddy thingy and put the kefir solids in there inside the jar. Thanks for showing us.
I know I thought it was absolutely genius too. If the tea buddy is metal, that might cause a detrimental reaction with the fermentation: www.culturesforhealth.com/learn/milk-kefir/choosing-equipment-making-dairy-milk-kefir/#:~:text=Metal.,do%20have%20success%20doing%20so. Hope that helps!
@@team_honnas Could you share where you got your jar with the plastic cage? Thanks for the informative and helpful video - well done!
Good man. Thank you for this kefir instruction and your encouragement at the end. Hopefully I’ll kefir myself into a happy tummy like you.
This was very helpful. I loved all the scientific evidence to support your claims!
How do you put a thumbs down to someone sharing an Amazing SUCCESSFUL Life Journey!? The information he is sharing is very informative. Thanks for your shared knowledge of your journeys!
We love kefir ; take it daily for my gut problems I had . Feel great now . I make it my self & it’s so easy to make . Thank you for sharing darling .
Thank you for the inspiration! Unfortunately I haven’t had the will power to keep on trying, hopefully I will be able to start my journey to healing soon.
Happy to do it! Wishing you the best.
You're a visionary, man
Can’t wait man!
So i brought this today to help with my Ulcerative colitis symptoms
TEAM, VERY GOOD PRESENTATION AND BENEFITING TOO. YOU ARE GOING TO DO WELL INSHEALLAH ! Munir from Bangladesh.
Great info. Thanks Kenny.
You bet! Thanks for watching 👊🏻
You are truly awesome man. I always try to shout your videos out in forums.
Thanks, man. I really appreciate the kind words and the shout outs. Hope you're doing well 👊🏻
@@team_honnas Doing a bit rough. Just ordered some water kefir grains from cultures for health as I don't tolerate dairy very well.
Thank you souch, lovely!🙏🏻
I failed my first time trying this, I think I'm inspired to try again when you release this.
Hopefully it helps!
Did you have pain or anything?
I'm so happy for him
Had to watch this twice cauze I got distracted by your face. Your so handsome! Glad you found a solution for your sickness and and thank you for sharing this with the rest of the world.
Greetings from Holland!
Hahhah wat is dat voor opmerking🤣🤣🤣
Thank you so much for this! I am working on my own health by incorporating probiotics.
You're very welcome! Wishing you all the best.
@melissadepillolozano365 Hi. I need some insight can you please let me know if you made homemade kefir and if you did, did you experience any symptoms when first started drinking it? Thanks in advance.
Another great video Kenny
Thank you! Hope you're doing well.
thank you kenny for sharing your insights, i was also diagnosed for UC 2 months ago, i was also having bleeding, mucous , Fortunately with the help of your video , i was able to understand about this Disorder clearly, and i tried combining your tips with some other and i was able to completely stop my bleeding within 1 months, i have normal bowel movements 2 times a day, no bleeding, but sill issues with not well formed stool and mucous, i hope to correct that too within coming months and heal myself completely. Thank you again.
Good luck On your journey brotha
I’m at this same exact stage. Hope you’re doing better now. Any luck??
Deepak Singh Still having issues with stools that aren’t well formed as well as mucus in stools?
@deepaktabbbbb Was drinking kefir how you stopped the bleeding?
Thank you young man 🇺🇸🙏🏻
Thank you!!! You are an angel!!
I was wondering when you'd make another video keep up the good work and may God bless you and your family 👉✝
Thank you! God bless you and your family as well.
God bless you Kenny. we in India use buttermilk which is similar to kafeer. We have stopped wheat altogether and it helps a lot in ulcerative collitis. Substitute of wheat are millets.
Hey I am also from India.... Kefir is way powerful then buttermilk.....you should definitely give it a try.
@@InquisitiveShweta hi , can make it from coconut milk also .
Which millet you use ?
They are not similar. Very different products
@@InquisitiveShweta I'm unable to digest milk since my issue. How to use kefir?
You are a good man ❤️
Another banger 🔥
Thanks, man! Let's get in touch soon.
Hi Kenny. Glad your well and in remission still. Can I ask when you had your Calprotectin markers taken were they below 250? It seems people in remission from UC still have high markers of imflammation inside the gut and I'm wondering if your diet is keeping them down?
I've ordered kefir grains and raw organic milk from a farm . I cannot wait to make my own kefir
I just found you. I thank God for that. I think you know what you are doing and what you are talking about!!!! Thank you. By the way, are we allowed to have kefir everyday? My stomach is completely out of wack for the last 60 years. 🤣🤣😏 but I don’t know, something after seeing you gives me faith and confidence! Gracias 🙏. God bless you
60 years? How are you still managing
Hi Kenny, would you recommend a diet like the one you explain in your videos for somebody with seborrheic dermatitis? I believe it has something to do with my gut as my symptoms started right after I stopped a long course of antibiotics. Keep up the good work!
Probably. Its undigested plant food that often causes skin problems. Fermenting is a great way to rid some toxins. You can even ferment rice. Make your own yoghurt/ kefir. And meat is going to be your friend to heal your gut lining.
Thanks so much for your videos and sharing your story. Gives a lot of us hope. Was wondering when you added the kefir did it increase some symptoms like bloating at the beginning and then stopped after a while, if so, after how long did those symptoms subside? Thanks in advance!
@anacamargo3935 hi, I was wondering if you made homemade kefir, you mentioned getting symptoms of bloating. Did you get any other symptoms? And do you drink kefir now? Thanks
Thanks for this highly informative video. Does it matter what milk you use?
Thank you Kenny Honnas for sharing this!I love kefir made with Goat milk.
You’re very welcome! Happy to do it. Goat milk is indeed awesome to make kefir with
@Megan brook yes.i'm allergic to lactose & casein so goat was better choice its more digestible plus its high in glutamine.
Thank you friend.
Great video. Can you please make a video of what kind of milk to use to make kefir and challenges, if any? Thank you.
Love the studies
I was just diagnosed with UC two months ago and I’m determined to not be on meds the rest of my life. I found your channel a few days ago and i be already stated to make changes. I still have a lot to watch but do you remember where that Kefir contraption came from? I just went and bought some Kefir but would love to make my own! Thanks for the videos and I’ll leave an update in my journey!
How are things going in your journey? Did kefir help, did you get any symptoms when you first started?
Off your suggestion, I've been making kefir at home and it really has done wonders. Also I just love it. I can chug that stuff all day.
Hi, when you first started drinking kefir did you experience any uc symptoms? Like diarrhea or mucus? I'm scared of making things worse. Also, how long do you ferment your kefir?
No, I didn't have any strong uc symptoms. It seemed to help. I started making it from the microbiota kit that I researched to be the easiest.
I also made a lot of other dietary changes. My gut was back to normal, but after a buffet meal with my wife where I had a lot of fancy desserts and ice cream, I had extreme bowel bleeding the next day after work. That was when I realized processed/ added sugar was causing the flair ups. I quit sugar that day improved quickly. Since then I have avoided added suger, but natural sugar in fruit doesn't seem to make a problem.
Sorry tangent.
Depending on temperature, here in Korea I ferment my milk kefir (just made from standard basic brand full fat Seoul Milk) 24 hrs in spring and summer and 48 hrs in winter and fall, and adjust based on the way it looks in the jar.
If you can find a sugarless product in store it might be easier. When I started making kefir, the only thing sold in Korea had a lot of sugar added to it (even the Cheetos are sweet here^o^). I've since found a Russian/Uzbek enclave neighborhood with several shops where I can buy some branded and fresh local kefirs.
But if you're worried about reaction, I suggest just find a pure, completely sugar-free kefir and start with just half a cup per day and see how it goes^^
I'm used to it now, so I just chug it^^lol
@@cheayunju Hey could you please tell me what your diet is now?
Yeah, how much I use varies because they grow quickly. I ideally like to use a tablespoon and a half per two cups of milk maybe slightly less. In 12 hours it's very tart and the cream is separating. I recently ate a tablespoon of grains because in 12 hours it was so fermented the clear liquid was bubbling over. And I don't want to drink more kefir than a cup and a half twice a day.
Thank you!
Love this! I'm suffering! Your message at the end meant a lot! Thank you! Hoping this helps!
@tanman12 I'm curious, did you make homemade kefir and how did it affect you when/ if you took it?
My mom is suffering from colitis. This video is great info THANK YOU. Does it have to be cow milk can we use oat milk with the grains?
Hey Kenny, dig your videos and what you're doing. Just curious, as I've read Breaking the Vicious Cycle (as I'm sure you have)-- that books talks about avoiding lactose since it is a disaccharide and hard to absorb. Does this Kefir fermentation process do the same thing that SCD yogurt does in eliminating lactose?
Thanks,
Peter
Kenny, what quantities of kefir did you drink per day when you where starting with your protocol? Did you drink it with each 2 meals you were having? Thanks a million. Mike
Do you think unflavored yogurt, kombucha, and store bought kefir like the lifeway brand are all suitable forms of probiotic intake as well for UC healing/staying in remission?
Thanks a lot for this video..i really wanted to know how long do these kefir grains last after which i will have to replace them?
Hi Kenny, thanks for the valuble information. I would like to know, please how many times is it possibel to use the kefir grains? Thanks. Zeppe.
I love your videos Kenny! Thank you very much for sharing so much valuable content! Can I ask please with how much kefir per day and in one sitting do you started to avoid die off reaction? And how much do you drink now? If you don’t mind please share the link from the fermenter. Thank you very much and all the best wishes
Really appreciate the kind words, thank you! Here is the link to the kefir fermenter: amzn.to/3mSK0Q2. I personally think the best way to go through a milder die off reaction is to start low and go slow. If I were doing it over again, I would start with 100 mL per day for 1 week. If I saw an increase in symptoms as a result of the die off reaction, I would either hold the dose of kefir steady for 1-3 days and see if the symptoms decreased/normalized. If they didn't decrease/normalize, then I would drop the dose of kefir or stop the kefir altogether until they did. On the flip side, If the symptoms normalize after a few days, I would increase the dose by 100 mL every week until I was up to about 800 mL like the IBD patients in the study were given. Always err on the side of caution! If you see an increase in symptoms and need medical attention, go get it. I always recommend consulting and listening to your doctor before you make dietary changes. Hope that helps.
Also, I'd split the daily total dosage of kefir evenly between the number of meals you consume. I like to drink my kefir with meals.
Kenny Honnas hey Kenny, thank you very much for taking your time and answering my questions! I really appreciate this. Like I said, I love your content and your videos. Please make more of it, they are really helpful. You are a big inspiration and I’m looking forward to heal like you did! Thank you very much
Will definitely be making more content in the near future!
@helmutkrusemann9194 Hi, can you give me some insight on how you did when you started drinking kefir, how much did you start with and did you experience any symptoms? Did it help or make things worse? Thanks
The one thing i loved about raw kefir is my joints stopped hurting almost immediately. And i was able to gain some weight. But it never decreased the amount of bathroom trips, actually increased. after 7 months i had to quit. Looking for the next cure. If at first you don't succeed, try and try again.
its strain specific, so i think some strains actually cause you to go to the bathroom more. or if you combine certain strains, it could be really good or it could cause more problems. so maybe look into that. also, what do you think about a FMT by swallowing some poop pills?
Hi Kenny,
Thank you sharing everything, especially your knowledge. Could you advise where you got that basket from please. Was it in a kit? Seems so simple but cant find it anywhere. I'm in Australia. Thanks 🦋
Kefir definitly works!
Hello am so glad i found ur channel from ulcerative colitis to pancolitis from 8 months.. it was the calprotectin that was higher in numbers still are and the blood in my stools..recent colonoscopy showed pancolitis.. i wanted to ask my doctor does not allow me to consume milk.. can i make my kefir in almond milk, coconut milk or water? Please do reply thankyou
Thank you Kenny, pickles and carrot fermentation next?
Absolutely, that is the next one I will be working on. Hope you're doing well!
lots of thanks from india for your incredible videos
Thanks for watching!
@@team_honnas bro... Can yogurt made from pasturized milk is fine??
What are your thoughts on making yogurt? My daughter (she is 16/Crohns) doesn’t like the kefir I made, I am thinking maybe yogurt might work better but would she get the same benefits from it, and how do you make it? Thanks for all you do God Bless you.
Kenny,
Besides Kefir, I'm adding hydrolized protein...what do you think about whey protein? Could it be bad for the healing process?
Love your little gadget, I use a bag that garlic comes in..
One of the first few people to watch! Hi Kenny, have you ever ferment kefir for LESS than 48 hours just once?
Thank you! Yes, I have. I fermented kefir between 24-36 hours for a long time until I called the dairy I originally got my kefir from. I asked them how they made their kefir and they told me they allowed it to ferment for 48 hours, so I decided to start doing it that way.
@@team_honnas did you notice less positive benefits with the shorter fermentation?
Wow I didn't know it was that easy to make Kefir. I'm thinking about making it with goat milk. Thank you Dr Honnas ; )
Hahaha not a doctor, but yes it is very easy! Hope you are doing well.
Hi, I'm from morocco. iV been suffering from colitis for 18 years. Wanna ask about milk to make kefir, do I need raw milk or just pasturised milk ( from supermarket) cuz finding raw milk is difficult.
Waiting for your answer.
Thanks in advance 🤗
You can use pasteurized milk but try getting the highest quality one as long as it’s “Whole Milk”
Thanks for sharing. Would you please share the link where to get the lip with the filter?
Hi Kenny! Exacly how much kefir do you have now?? lol Ive been using store bought for ever but i finally bought me my grains and those little guys are growing like weeds!! lol I dont know what to do with them now, and i refuse to throw such amazing things away. I offered them to my friends and family but they had no idea what they were. Maybe ill do some educating since ever since I began watching your vids ive been known as the "Weird food girl" lollll
hi Kenny! congratulations for winning the war against UC. Would you please help us find a good source to get Kiefer grains. the ones I got from the health store never grow at all. I wasn't able to activate them despite carefully following the process of activation.
Just my atypical experience: I didn't have uc until I was 47. I suddenly started having joint pain, then uveitis (swollen eye), and then severe ulcerative colitis and anemia. It came out of nowhere. UC typically starts in young people, but mine was very late onset. I often drank beer after work, so I assumed that was the cause. I cut it, but the problem continued. My doctor (in Korea) prescribed mesalazine as an anti-inflammatory for the gut. That helped but flares kept occurring. At one point I was fine. My wife and I went to this fancy 100 dollar buffet and flipped out. I ate a lot of small cakes and rich ice cream for dessert. The next day, bloody blowout. That's when I realized my biggest trigger for flare was simply processed sugar. It's like I'm allergic now. A piece of cake will give me full body joint inflammation and more will cause the uc. So, for me, completely quitting sugar and boosting my gut with kefir got me pretty much back to normal. I think my late-age uc was a symptom of leaky gut caused by processed sugar and alcohol. I still take mesalazine as my gastro prescribes, but compared to the US it is quite easy in Korea. It's only about $40 for 2 months of the oral drug. My doc really pushed using the suppositories at first, and I tried them, but that is a kinda unpleasant way to take medicine^^
I love Kefir on the 3rd or 4th day (Very fizzy) with honey in it!
If dairy kefir that would be quite sour, or did you mean water kefir?
Thank you❤
hi kenny i am suffering from colitis since 2 years and i have lost 15 kg i started taking kefir smoothie bluebrry and banana since 1 week ...my question is should i start eating high calorie food for weight gain or i should wait for some days???
Thank you.

Thank you Kenny, it is a very helpful video. I'm drinking home made Kefir for 1 month. At the beginning, it disturbed me for like a week but now i'm drinking a glass of it everyday without any problem.
Important video request:
Can you please explain your experience with fitness supplements such as creatine mono, protein powder and glutamine? Also multivitamin, Vitamin D and Fish Oil would be a plus. I love fitness, training for over 8 years and don't want to quit my routines. Thanks in advance!
We can make a collab if you want, I can share my experience with you, what I use, what does not disturb me etc. I have colitis ulcerosa since 2019 March.
@kenny Honnas do you think pasteurized kefir that is sold at Walmart would be beneficial as well? Thank you long time follower
Hi kenny, Here in India traditionally we are drinking fermented rice(cooked) water with buttermilk .I don't know how much good bacteria living that.i like to know fermented rice water probiotics.can you tell me?
Just diagnosed with ulcerative colitis nd this leads to your channel " don't shut your channel ever ". ❤️
@@pradeepachellaian6837 rice water with buttermilk. can explain what you talk about
@ Kenny Honnas
I'm Iulian and I've had ulcerative colitis since 2016, I've been in remission until now when I got on fire ...
Is it ok to drink kefir when I'm on fire ?, but is blueberry and banana smoothie ok in flames?
Thank you from the heart
Hello, after the 5 days of reactivating the grains, should the grains then be multiplying and enlarging, when switching to 4 cups …. ? How long does it take before you notice an increase in grains ? Thanks !! ; )
Thank you so much regards jase
How many times can you reuse the keifer grains? Do you recommend buying 1 or 2 tblsp at a time?
How long does these grains last for before you need to use new grains
Hi. I see you always eat fermented pickles. Do you make them yourself? I just realised that pickles made with vinegar or other acids don't actually have probiotics. There are almost no pickles made with brine only. Please advise.
Hey Kenny: Where can i find a fermentation vessel like the one displayed in the video?. Really cool.
What Type of milk do you use with your kefir grains, is it plant-based, raw or normal supermarket pasteurised milk? Thanks bro, your content is an inspiration for those of us suffering from IBD. Bless you!
I also have IBD ( ulcerative colitis, and Crohn’s) I went Carnivore and healed myself!! First time being off Biologics in 15 years🙌🏻 I use Kefir grains in fresh raw milk also.. I just started adding it in my diet
Did u mention you can make Kiefer with plant base milk , like almond milk?
Hi Kenny, what kind of milk do you use to make kefir?
Please do more recipe videos of a smoothies with kefir milk. Thank you for your kindness 😊
I'll get to work on that! Happy to do it.
hello, i have a question. i have to take penicillin everyday because i take an immunosuppressant medicine for a kidney disease. i know that antibiotics tho can kill good bacteria, so do u think i'd have to try to get in even more probiotics each day? it's quite a bad situation im in, wish i didn't have to take them :(
Do you think you have healed without it?.. I am very unwell with Lyme/CFS. Major Gut issues... major major major. Gastroparesis etc etc etc
How much kefir do you drink in a day now and while you were healing ?
Hey Kenny, I just started your Bootcamp a week ago. You've been an absolute Godsend in my life as I have suffered from Ulcerative Colitis about a year now. I was on Mesalamine for a year and could eat pretty much anything I wanted, but last month I noticed that the medicine wasn't working like it used to. I came to the conclusion that I will always have to increase the dosage of my medicine or worse if I continue down this path. I didn't have any hope that I could heal this condition until I stumbled upon one of your videos. Thank you so much for giving people like us hope and being a blessing in our lives. Also, I know that you suggest using raw milk. However, I'm still not comfortable with it quite yet. I'd like to start with just Kefir and normal milk first. Does it matter what milk I use? Could I make Kefir with Almond milk for example?
Appreciate the kind words! You could start with regular milk, doesn't need to be raw. The fermentation process will still break down a significant portion of the lactose and increase the probiotic microorganisms. There are ways to make it with coconut milk and I'd assume almond milk as well. Cultures for health has some info about plant based kefir on their website that might be worth checking out. I'll also be filming a video about a pretty cool probiotic coconut yogurt that has some similar benefits as kefir. Hope that helps!

What kind of milk do you use? I have heard that some milk can make UC worse. Thanks!!
How long can we store our fermented milk in the fridge for?
Can we purchase the kefir basket? Great idea!
