Should I take these seperately? My kids and wife like smoothies, but my wife would probably not drink kefir on its own. Putting it in a smoothie would be an easy way to incorporate into theirs and my daily routine, (albeit a sneaky way). </p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/120401/coconut-and-probiotics/120517#120517 Answer by missionman for Coconut and probiotics missionman 2012-05-18T03:49:11Z 2012-05-18T03:49:11Z <p>Well since it's been awhile since i've asked this question and no one seems to be able to answer it, I have decided I will just not add any coconut oil/milk/cream to my smoothies until I can get a definative answer. </p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/120401/coconut-and-probiotics/120571#120571 Answer by Todd B for Coconut and probiotics Todd B 2012-05-18T15:24:38Z 2012-05-18T15:24:38Z <p>There are lots of recipes for coconut milk kefir, including this one at Mark's Daily Apple. <a href="http://www.marksdailyapple.com/homemade-coconut-milk-kefir/#axzz1vEczNRTa" rel="nofollow">http://www.marksdailyapple.com/homemade-coconut-milk-kefir/#axzz1vEczNRTa</a></p> <p>Since you can actually make kefir using coconut milk, I'm guessing just mixing milk kefir with coconut kefir is no problem!</p>
