Pour kefir over frozen berries and stir in chia seeds. The berries thaw in minutes, the chia swells slightly, and you have a probiotic-rich, anti-inflammatory breakfast with almost no effort.
Ingredients
- 250ml plain kefir
- 80g frozen mixed berries
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
Nutritional notes
Kefir contains up to 61 strains of beneficial bacteria and yeasts — significantly more diverse than standard yogurt. Research links regular kefir consumption to improved lactose tolerance, reduced inflammatory markers, and better gut barrier function. Chia seeds provide ALA omega-3s, soluble fibre, and calcium. Frozen berries retain their polyphenol content fully.
