FERMENTING YOGURT

Roger: I missed something along the way.... about temperature. Could you please explain? I don't make yogurt because MILK is not Paleo. So you're saying that if someone ferments yogurt that it has to be fermented at a temperature lower than the human body temperature would disturb the gut bacteria? Disturb? Destroy? What is the rationale behind that

I have frozen kefir root while I've been away travelling
and started all over again when returned home.
It starts a bit slowly in the room temp at first but
eventually as the process gets started it keeps up the work
will

Forget everything that you think that I said, Vicki. I am saying that given the fact that both kefir and yogurt ferment at temperatures far from the temperature of the human gut that it is unlikely that we are getting a benefit from the microbes per se but from the prebiotics that the microbes have been nice enough to prepare from us.
