Cultured Dairy

(including amasi

and kefir)

Of all the superfoods we’ve talked about, I believe this one’s the
most powerful. Cultured dairy, such as kefir, is the Superman of
superfoods. These foods provide a host of essential nutrients
that aid digestion and detox the body of toxins and “bad
bacteria”.

In 2004, Richard Mokua, a Wisconsin

Master’s program student in Food and
Nutrition Sciences, studied the
benefits of a Kenyan cultured dairy
food called “amasi.” He noticed that
children who grew up in Kenya had a
healthier digestive system and were
less prone to diarrhea than other
children.
