Kefir milk contains many nutrients and properties, including immunomodulators, antibiotics, antioxidants and is rich in probiotics when compared to yogurt. Kefir milk from goats has more benefits than those from cow's milk, but it is still rarely in demand by the public because of its pungent aroma and taste.
