Health benefits of frozen kefir?

[lauradbg]

I make my kids smoothies with kefir and then freeze leftovers in popsicle forms. Is the frozen kefir still full of good beasties? Where can I find out? I looked at Dom's kefir site and didn't find the answer.

Thanks,

I've been thinking about your question all day and I can't think of having seen a good answer anywhere.

Dom says on his site that you can freeze kefir grains though, so that tells me that at least some of the good beasties make it through the freezing and thawing.

So, it might not be as good as the fresh but certainly it's better than the food dye and sugar kind of popsicles!

You could email Dom and ask him. If you do, will you let us know?
