Re: could someone possibly mail me kefir grains (to NY)?

Hi Starfish, If you are blood type 'O' you are genetically unable to properly digest dairy products and wheat [glutin]and potatoes. Once a sensitivity is established in 'O' types the immune system treats these foods as an invader, like any other pathogen - hence your reaction. Best to investigate Peter D'Adamo's 'Eat Right for your Type' before you spend time and effort on a milk product.Having tried all the milk based probiotics over several years, I find I'm better just cutting them out. Good Luck. Love and Light , Deotima.
