As we transition into autumn, it’s easy to forget about hydration. Cooler weather often tricks us into drinking less water, but did you know that dehydration can seriously impact your gut health? From sluggish digestion to an imbalanced microbiome, not drinking enough water can leave you feeling bloated, fatigued, and even nutrient-deficient. Staying hydrated is one of the simplest yet most powerful ways to support your digestive system and overall well-being.

In this month’s blog, we explore the vital role of hydration in gut health, how much water you really need, and the best gut-friendly drinks to keep you feeling your best. Plus, we’re sharing simple tips to help you stay on top of your hydration this March! Read the full article here.

Kefir Making Workshop

It is time for a kefir making workshop again. Please fill out the form if you are interested. Unfortunately, there will only be an in person event Gauteng for now. There may also be an online workshop for those who are far away or can't make the date.

Kefir and kombucha are great fermented beverages to help with hydrating your body AND boost your gut health! These are also low sugar options as the sugar used in the fermenation process are "eaten" by the fermentation process.

Happy Hydrating!
