Fermentation: a chemical change with effervescence: Transformation of an organic substance (raw milk) by the action of ferments ( yeast ). A chemical conversion into simpler substances: the biochemical process in which a microorganism breaks down a substance into simpler ones, especially the creation of alcohol by the action of yeast on sugar. Many pharmaceuticals are produced by fermentation. Yogurt is created through the fermentation process but lacks yeast which creates the 1 to 2% alcohol content and effervescence of Kefir. For example, lactase, a ferment produced by bacteria usually found in milk, causes the milk to sour by changing lactose (milk sugar) into lactic acid. Kefir has excess digestive enzymes and tunes-up your immune system by establishing colonies of 30 plus unique micro flora in the colon. It helps digest what is digestible and eliminates the rest
