Kefir

Kefir is a drink made from fermented milk that originated in Turkey. Because kefir is more watery than cream cheese, it cannot be used as a cream cheese substitute on its own. So, chia seeds are required to use kefir as cream cheese. When you combine chia seeds and kefir, the extra water will fill them up, giving you a richer, creamier consistency. This is better suited for dips and savory dishes than desserts or frosting.

Kefir is a nutritious fermented food with a consistency similar to drinkable yogurt. This product is traditionally made from dairy milk, but there are plenty of non-dairy alternatives. According to research, it boosts your immune system, helps with digestive issues, improves bone health, and may even help you fight cancer.
