Kefir and Colonization of bacteria

Well, friends, this is unfortunately my last post on such an irrational forum as CureZone. I can't see how I can continue using a forum which bans such a wonderful contributor as Hv.
But I have one more question which I hope someone remembers as information from Hv in the past.
Are the beneficial bacterial that we receive from kefir able to colonize in the intestines of humans?
Thanks so much, and I'm going to mish Hv terribly.

This is a reply to # 1,953,932I have never used kefir, but a lot of people do, so I hope someone can help you or find a link.
Did you try the searchbox and put in " kefir and intestines". There is a lot of archived material here.
Here is an example

This is a reply to # 1,953,932If you can't find it in the archives here, I would next try Dr. Jeff. I think he has very good, straightforward information on these matters.

"The oral administration of the supernatant of milk fermented by L. helveticus R389 enhanced the gut mucosal immunity by improving the mechanisms that reinforce the epithelial and non-specific barriers and the gut functioning at sites of infection, with an improvement in the expression of the enzyme calcineurin, an important signal in the network that activates the gut immune system. The results of this work contribute to revealing the mechanisms underlying the immunomodulation of the gut immune function by fermented milks with probiotic bacteria."

This is a reply to # 1,954,052I thank all of you good people for all your answers; and your time is much appreciated.
So, samh69, would you want to translate all of that and tell me whether or not bacteria obtained from kefir can colonize in the intestines of humans?

"I'm hoping water kefir is truly as beneficial as milk kefir. Hv?
Yes, you are still getting the beneficial acids and beneficial bacteria."

"The nice thing about kefir is that it generally contains a broader range of probiotics than most supplemental probiotics. And you know the cultures in kefir are still live. With probiotic supplements it is hard to tell if they are still live since you have no idea if they were subjected to excessive heat or have been stored too long.
In the long run though as I mentioned before prebiotics are much more beneficial than probiotics since they feed all the strains of flora. Probiotics just replace some strains."

"Both. Kefir is a probiotic because it actually contains the flora. But you need the prebiotics to feed the flora so they can grow. Imagine getting a bunch of kittens (representing the good bacteria). Do they grow and multiply without food? Of course not. So you give them food (representing the prebiotic fibers) so they grow and multiply"

This is a reply to # 1,953,932I heard that a good batch of kefir from raw milk or made using kefir grains, is so super good for the gut. I heard that it not only has WAY more probiotics than what you get from the store, but also a friendly probiotic yeast which can penetrate the mucosal lining of the intestines where pathogens get to and over ride the pathogens from there.
