I have been a huge Lifeway kefir fan for about 8 years. I discovered it when reading up on nutritious foods that were beneficial for breastmilk supply and loved it. I’ve only tried blueberry & strawberry, but they have some amazing sounding flavors available, like cappuccino, chocolate truffle, mango and coconut chia.
We discovered Lifeway’s Probugs Organic Kefir for kids a last year when we took a road trip to Whole Foods. We bought Probugs and frozen Probugs, and my kids inhaled them! Lifeway recently unveiled three new products for infants & children; Probugs Blast, Probugs Bites & Green Probugs (Kefir for children w/a serving of vegetables in it.) I received samples of the Blast and Bites to try.
Probugs Blast is a low fat, on-the-go snack, full of probiotics, protein and calcium. The 3.5 oz bottles contain 60 calories, and the cane juice sweetened grape flavor tasted like candy to me! They are available in 4 flavors, and contain 12 live and active probiotic cultures. They are organic, 99% lactose free and gluten free.
My kids love the 8 oz singles of the traditional, low-fat kefir, so I would reserve this as a treat. However, if your children don’t care for the tart flavor of kefir, this would be perfect for them. The small size is great for on-the-go snacking.
Lifeway Probugs bites are freeze dried kefir bites, that melt in an infant’s mouth.
Like other brands of yogurt “melts,” my whole family loved them and gobbled them up!
