"The kefir market has been witnessing steady growth over the years as increasing consumption of health-benefitting foods is a general trend observed across the world," according to TMR's lead analyst The kefir market is primarily driven by the health benefits of kefir combined with an array of applications of kefir in food and beverage products. Kefir is a fermented probiotic drink and is loaded with essential nutrients. Kefir is considered to be very healthy for diet conscious consumers and is often recommended for fitness regimes. Further, kefir is also advised to obese and individuals with gastric patients to improve their metabolism and smoothen the bowel movement.
