Kefir is an important member of the probiotics, which are the subgroup of functional foods. It is a fermented milk product and contains useful bacteria and yeasts. In this text, the health and metabolism effects of the kefir are discussed in the light of current literature

Kefir ve Sağlık

Öz

Son yıllarda toplumlar beslenme konusunda giderek daha bilinçli hale gelmektedir. Beslenme konusunda temel talep olan sağlıklı ve güvenli gıdalar tüketebilme isteğinin yanında; insan sağlığına ek faydalar sağlayan, hastalıklardan koruma potansiyeli olan ve fonksiyonel gıda olarak adlandırılan ürünlere ulaşma isteği de giderek artmaktadır. Kefir, fonksiyonel gıdalardan probiyotikler alt kolunun önemli bir üyesi olup, içeriğinde birçok faydalı maya ve bakteri bulunduran, son yıllarda popülaritesi gittikçe artan fermente bir süt ürünüdür. Bu çalışmada, güncel bilgiler ışığında kefirin metabolik faaliyetler ve sağlık yararları üzerinde durulmuştur.
