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.
