From Australia here… 🇦🇺 I watched Dr Bergs conversation with Dr Davis a few weeks ago and immediately ordered everything I needed online to make this L. Reuteri yoghurt. I couldn’t find ‘half and half’ milk in our supermarkets so I made my own with half whole milk and half cream which I think makes the fat content a little higher than necessary but I made a perfect batch and it had a very thick layer of fermented cream on top… this ‘sour cream’ doesn’t get wasted though! I’ve been eating the half cup of yoghurt every day now and I’m watching very closely. I’ve suffered with painful bloating nearly all my life which made my pregnancies very painful. In recent years, the only thing that helped me was marijuana but I didn’t want to get high anymore. I’m so glad the universe guided me toward a much healthier cure for my gut problem! Bless you Dr Davis… you deserve some kind of award for your research and findings! ❤❤❤
My gut is telling me that these two amazing people are going to save the world! A health epidemic is what we need and it ain't gonna happen listening to Big Pharma or unaware doctors. People are waking up to what real health is all about and this is it! Thank you both very much.
I am so grateful for and encouraged by this podcast. Thank you both! I have been making and drinking raw milk kefir for one month and could tell a big difference in the way I feel right away. Now on to the yogurt, Dr. Davis’ book and increasing fermented foods to my diet. I have had fibromyalgia since 2004 and had to go on disability because of it. I would love to kick it out the door!
I am on my 4th batch of the Super Sibiu Yogurt (I love the stuff, better than ice cream) and now after reading Donna’s book I’ve added Kefir and will start cultured veggies now. Thanks so very much!
@@adinatudora4649 It's just what they are calling the yogurt because it works well. The doctor said it works great for Sibo...that is bacteria infection in the gut sort of...google what is sibo..but this is not just only good for Sibo. It helps with good bacteria in gut.
@@adinatudora4649 I think he may have meant SIBO acryonym for Small Intestinal Bacteria Overgrowth. But it's pretty amazing that he wrote Sibiu which is a place most of us have never heard of but you not only knew but had a close connection to it and you happened to see Sibiu. Amazing how that works.
Just watched this video and already got the book weeks ago but haven’t read it yet. Got the sous vide and the vacuum sealer equipment (I’m all in!), and waiting for the culture starter. Joined Donna’s pro subscription and downloaded recipes. I feel a little overwhelmed but as she said, one thing. Just start with one thing. L Reuteri yogurt is my first step to taking my life back after 20+ years on antibiotics. I will be documenting the process and including my parents in the experiment for the next three months. Donna, thank you for your kind heart and generosity. Your desire to help everyone heal is changing the planet. 🙏🏻🥰
You’re correct - just found you two and I’m so excited to try LR yogurt for my elderly parents, my unhealthy husband (triple bypass and many different drugs), and, of course, myself so I can keep up with caring for them. So thankful to have found you. Thank you for sharing 💗
I've made the l. reuteri (ROY-ter-eye) yogurt four times now and finally got the thick, rich, creamy consistency I was striving for. I used Indigo Nili's hack of heating the Half and Half to 100 degrees F before adding the whey and curds from a previous batch, plus the 2 TB of inulin. I set the temperature of my little eight jar yogurt maker to 102 degrees F and the timer for 36 hours. I can tell that my digestive system is calmer and not as bloated in just a few days of eating this yogurt, and I have actually slept through the night for the first time in years a couple of times since beginning Dr. Davis's six point program. I have been tortured for years with nightly foot and leg cramps that jerk me awake several times a night to hobble into the kitchen and drink dill pickle juice, often in tears from the pain. I have been on a low carb diet for several years, taken magnesium and potassium supplements, drunk keto electrolytes, and done any and all remedies I could think of or that were suggested for that problem, but nothing worked until I got on Dr. Davis's complete program. I have the cramps down to only one mild one once in a while, and hope that this yogurt and Dr. Davis's program will eventually heal my body to where I don't have those horrible cramps anymore at all. Thank you, Dr. Davis!
You can try sleeping on a grounding sheet as well. It works for my Grandma who also gets cramps in the night. I bought mine on Amazon for $30. I love it
My husband suffers from terrible leg cramps as well! It’s not as bad as what you’ve gone through but I’ve never seen suffering like he experiences and the only thing that helps him is cbd lotion and magnesium supplements but not enough. Thank you for sharing - I will check into it for him.
I had gallbladder issues in my early 30s and found a remedy where I took a cup of olive oil and lemon juice, swig the oil, cut with the lemon juice. Quickly (hours) I passed the stones and have had no recurrence.
If I did a video where he makes all that stuff together and show that it makes little stones and you're not really they're not coming from your gallbladder they're coming from the mixture that you drink. You might test that make that stuff up in the glass and test it. See if it makes little stones
@@howtogetoutofbabylon8978 Even if that were the case, it's still solved the issue for many people over the years. My sister was in horrendous pain and did this protocol and the pain went away. She and others have gone from being in the hospital with terrible pain to no more pain.
After listening to Dr Berg's recent interview with Dr Davis I went looking for more on L. Reuteri, how to make the yogurt, and Dr Davis and found this great interview with him. Just subscribed. I was researching last night about making yogurt in my InstantPot, because I've had mixed results in the past, but was also trying to find out what temperature the yogurt functions operate at to see if it was going to be suitable and not go above 100 degrees. (Nothing on IPs website, which is really lame of them). In case it helps anyone else, the trick is to not use the yogurt function, but use the Sous Vide function where you can set the exact temperature and time. I get raw milk so I will use the yogurt boil function to bring it above 180 then let it cool off, add the starter culture, and turn to Sous Vide mode to ferment it. I will probably put the cultured milk in mason jars and put them back into the Sous Vide mode in a water bath at 100 for 36 hours. Waiting on my L. Reuteri from Dr Davis, and I'm going to get my raw milk from the afternoon milking to start practicing on making just yogurt this way. So hopefully I will the process down by the time I get my L. Reuteri. Will share with my dogs, they will be very happy about it.
How nice to have fresh milk! My grandmother made yogurt and pickled veggies all the time. When she got a yogurt maker around 1980 she didn't seem to like it. Now I'm wondering how she made yogurt. I'm guessing she just left it in her back room that didn't have ac. I'm still in Phoenix Az where 5 mos of the year has 100°+ days and summer is 100° through the night. The weather just cooled so I'm looking for a simple way to make yogurt and wondered if a heating pad with precise temp setting would work.🤔
I've been getting thick, creamy, delicious yogurt for one month. Sadly, I haven't seen any benefits, either. I will be experimenting with bacillus coagulans also.
I’ve also been making and eating it straight for 5 months too. I’ve noticed deeper sleep with dreams, an increase of dermal collagen, and an increase in muscle mass, at 53.
Completed my first batch Tuesday and have a new batch fermenting now from the daughter. I shared a starter with my own daughter yesterday and just sent her this video.
OMG, Dr. Davis, you better watch your back for exposing all this great information regarding the microbiome!! I love all your advise on how to take control of your own health. Big Pharma must hate you!! Keep exposing all this crucial information about how to improve one's health. Thank you so much!!!
Believe he was blacklisted by Canadian govt when he told people to stop eating grains (with Canada a major grain producer). Go get'em, Dr. Davis. Keep promoting good health over profit!
Great program. Just made a batch of the Sauerkraut that I learned from your other youtube video; and making a batch of the yogurt Dr. Davis has intructed me to make. Very exciting to find health through the kitchen skills
We love it.. my 2 kiddos have a half of cups on breakfast. I do take a cup everyday. I can tell you this is the best thing ever... we love my 2nd batch was like a cheese flavor at the top. From my first batch it was well done and the 2nd one the best so far.
I'm very excited! I've ordered the L. Reuteri starter, the yogurt maker and also purchased the Sugar Shift capsules. Can wait to get started on this part of my journey. Thank you for this video and all of your hard work getting the information out to everyone.
Where are the links to the L. Reuteri starter, yogurt maker, and Sugar Shift capsules? It's really frustrating to listen to this podcast and not be able to find the links to the products needed to get started
I have a daughter that has a problem with weight and I thought if I could somehow get hold of all of these strains of bacteria and make it for her, maybe it would help her get better even if she doesn't lose a lot of weight.
Omg I just learned about this recipe and made my first batch this week!! Turned into a fizzy feta cheese 😅😅 I will tweak and try again. Thanks so much for posting!!!
My 1st batch turned out very watery just like yours. Many comments elsewhere that this happens with the 1st batch. Nothing to really tweak. Just seed the 2nd batch with the first. My second batched turned out very firm.
@mathfaster and Donna thank you for the advice! I’ve been fermenting the mixture in a quart mason jar in the instant pot, sous vide function, 97* and 36 hrs. Maybe I’ll switch it to yogurt function. Also Donna you inspired me to start making milk kefir years ago and it’s still a kitchen staple. Thank you for that!!
@@joyfulalessi7628 I have an Instant Pot Pro and found it absolutely imperative that you test the temperature with an instant read thermometer to calibrate the temp of the yogurt setting. Setting at 100 F gave a water test temp of 110 F. Not what you want for L. Reteuri. I now set at 92 F for yogurt to get 100 F for fermenting. I tested over 2 1/2 hours and it kept a constant 100.
Being new to fermenting dairy. I purchased and used both Cutting Edge Cultures Prebio Plus & LRiuteri Starter Cultures. Added 2Tblsp of Ebuo Plus and one packet of the Starter to Ultra Pasturized Organic Half and Half. First batch DID SEPERATE severely but since the substituted the starter with two tablespoons of the separated curds from batch ( generation) one. Great success have repeated this a few times with consistent great smooth sour results. MY QUESTION IS THIS! can I freeze the curds from the first generation and continue to use them? Or does freezing have any negative effect on the ability to be a starter. By the way I used my souse Vide at 99.5d for 36 hours in all process. Although I have purchased and waiting for my Luvele yogurt maker to arrive soon. I will probably try to use the starter again and spend time to cross all my T’s and dot all my I’s to get a “non separated” first batch. I am a born again believer in Fermented foods, making Kombucha, Kimchi, Saure Krout, and now dairy! I am a big believer that gut health will be a big step towards my health goals. I am a 0:04 low carb insulin sensitive old man trying to practice clean living so your help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks
Donna does your starter include all the strains Dr. Davis has mentioned. In the L Rerteria starter, I just ordered. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I admire you so much. God bless you and all yours.
I am a 71 year old and I started the reuteri yogurt 7 days ago. I have been drinking raw milk kefir for years and wondered if that could interfere with how the reuteri yogurt works? Is it OK to still consume the kefir later in the day? I have looked through the book and don’t see an answer. Thank you so much ……love your videos on this.
We dont have raw milk here in Norway , all is pasturized and homogenized . Do I remember correctly that someone said you could add butter to your full fat milk to become "un homogenized " again ?
Hi Donna, Is your Lactobacillus Reuteri starter the exact same as Dr. Davis's starter as he mentions in another video that you only need to use his starter tablets once and thereafter use only the yogurt base?
Our LR Superfood contains a high concentration of the SD-5865 strain of L. Reuteri. Which is different from the starter in his book, however; here is what Dr. William Davis states in his book about our starter. "Another option: a yogurt-making kit using a different strain of L. Reuteri that, in preliminary experience, yields many of the same effects, called “LR Superfood Starter.” Check out these results on out starter: www.culturedfoodlife.com/l-reuteri-the-bacteria-youre-missing-and-the-superfood-yogurt-i-love/#results Yes you can use some of the previous yogurt as a starter for the next few batches before needing a new packet. Hope this helps!
Is there any information on the gas tester you talk about that he shows the white or the black one and how to get those I don't see any links here in your description thing or comments and I don't see anything I can't find anything of him talking about it on a video can't find them on Amazon etcetera
Donna, I just discovered your channel, and I am very excited to explore this way of healing. I am 72 years old, I have had histamine intolerance for most of my life. Foods high in histamine, including fermented foods, make me itch - particularly my scalp. I made sauerkraut a couple of weeks ago, and it really caused a lot of itching, so I stopped. It’s still sitting in my refrigerator. I plan to order the L Reuteri starter when the weather cools a little. Don’t want to risk the product being damaged in shipping. My question is, should I just go ahead and eat the fermented foods despite the discomfort they cause, hoping that eventually I will get better? Is there a system to adding additional fermented foods in a way that would be best in my situation?
I am 75 yo and live a healthy active lifestyle, at least up to the point of trying the L Reuteri cultured dairy (A2) and Kefir. The kefir and cultured dairy were a delight and I used them sparingly. A couple of weeks into this experiment I ceased to be able to have a bowel movement without some sort of laxative. That was 2 months ago and this condition has had a hugely negative impact on my well being. Prior to this event I had no apparent digestive issues. I can only say to those considering buying into this fad; "Caveat emptor"
Thanks for the heads up! Everyone has a unique genetic profile and we never know how something, which may be healthy for the majority of us, will affect us as an individual.
Many people use an instant pot. Using goat milk, you must heat it to about 180, then cool to 100-104 then proceed with the recipe, 100 F for 36 hours. (Unless you can find fresh, ultra pasteurized goat milk)
I had to have my instant pot on the normal/medium yogurt setting without the lid to get it to the right temperature. Trying it with water first for a few hours is a good idea.
See your owners manual, as I understand the yogurt setting, it heats the milk then cools it, then starter and flavorings added. So that heating feature would be bad. If it has the sous vide setting> set it for 100 F, test that temp after 1 hour.
My question is if we use inulin in regular yogurt will it extend the time we can set the regular yogurt without it getting to whey like and separating?
Hi Donna. This was a great interview. I’m already having kefir everyday, and now I’m going to buy the yogurt machine, prebiotic and yogurt starter you recommend hoping to get these wonderful benefits. If I buy the Sugar Shift capsules, can I add that powder to the yogurt starter and Keifer yogurt? Do you think the strands of good bacteria in the capsules can enhance the bacteria in the yogurt and kefir? I’m wondering if those types of good bacteria can become part of the kefir and yogurt. Thx.
My questions exactly....I have wonderful yogurt going and would love to add these to the strains.... I use an instantpot on yogurt setting and it makes wonderful yogurt so thick!! And adding these would be wonderful. Have heartd that this is a harder type to make....so not sure....hope they answer us!!!! PLEAAASE!!!!
I’m so excited to come upon this-I just made a batch using the pills, crushed them and added with the gelatin- your pouches will make the process much easier. If I’m using raw milk do you think I’ll get a firm yogurt or should I still add the gelatin like I normally do?
You shouldn't use raw milk for it. The raw milk won't thicken into yogurt and will compete with the L. Reuteri as raw milk has its own good bacteria. Pasteurized milk works best for this type of ferment.
@@susie2366 For L. Reuteri you need to ferment at 100 degrees for 36 hours to get the full benefits. It's a different type of ferment than traditional yogurt.
@@CulturedFoodLife thank you for answering my question! I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place then. I can consume raw milk but if I consume pasteurized my eczema breaks out. I’d appreciate help figuring this out but if you don’t have the time-could you direct me to the info on this so I can see if I can find someway to make it work?
@@CulturedFoodLife all you need is to start the culture with pasteruizing your raw milk first. once you get it going. using it as a starter, raw milk is the best. since the fermentation will be too strong to let any other strains of bacteria take over. reuteri will be the main strain in the culture anyway if you get it going with it.
If he wants to make sure he is growing the 6475 strain then why not sterilize the growth medium and container and use the Osfortis product which is just 6475?
Can you use kefir as a base using Lactobacillus reuteri bacteria species, or do you have to ferment in a yogurt maker. What about jars or large keifir jars?
I pretty sure I have SIBO but when I tried kefir I was so miserable the bout of diahrrea lasted two days…. Do symptoms get worse with effective treatment before they get better?
I had an antibiotic 3 years ago n got the worst itchy butt. BUT everytime i take kefir or probiotics it reduces. Im like down to 5% left. I think if you stick at it. Or take less?
I used 2 spoons of honey (manuka honey) and it turned out delicious! Best yogurt I've ever tasted. It wasn't really sweet either, just tangy and wonderful.
I am going to attempt my first batch of l reurteri yogurt tonight ..trying to research enough so I don't mess it up lol..my gut needs some serious help...
@@adhikariindia Kefir doest not contain L. Reuteri. So this ferment will be a real game changer! You shouldn't use raw milk though for making this ferment. It has its own good bacteria and can compete with the L. Reuteri for food. It also won't thicken properly at the 100 degrees required temp. Pasteurized milk will work great. It's a very different style of ferment than traditional yogurt or even kefir. hope this helps!
Since my second batch My l Reuteri is getting yellow patches sigh black dots.. what am i doing wrong ? I love it and don’t want to be without it. I can’t keep buying the pills I’m on a very tight fixed income. Also where can I buy L. Gasseri??
Freeze your original batch in ice cube trays. The typical sized ice cube is 2 tablespoons. After they are frozen keep in a ziploc bag in the freezer. Take out a cube, put it in a small jar in the refrigerator the night before you are going to start your new batch so it can thaw. Use it for your new batch. It will have the strength of the original batch. If you freeze lots of cubes it will start lots of new batches!
Please do indicate to your viewers the caution, promoted by Dr. Davis himself, that you do NOT want to blend or mix this yogurt at high speed as vigorous blending will kill the microorganisms. Two scenarios as quoted from our Inner Circle Forum: "shear forces in the mix can tear the poor L.reuteri apart and mechanical heating will kill them." If you want to retain the massive probiotic count generated by our 36-42 hour L. reuteri yogurt, do not blend at high speed!
You can blend it and you'll still get massive benefits. I was told the same thing about kefir and the benefits are still there in both my own experience and what i've seen through helping others as well.
Hi, J H, I have a bottle of multi-strain probiotic capsules and want to use it to make coconut milk yogurt. There are 14 strains in one capsule with total 30 billion CFU, and two of the 14 strains only have 0.1 billion CFU each. For my 1st batch, do I need to use 20 capsules to get each strain to 2 billion CFU? Or just 1 capsule is good enough? Thanks!
@@CulturedFoodLife That makes sense to me at somebody said don't use a coffee frother because it'll kill the bacteria that just makes no sense to me whatsoever from a plain physics basis. Gigantic metal object going to kill microscopic organism doesn't make any sense! I guess. Everybody has a brain we are supposed to use them. Not to mention that it's my money and I can experiment. We need to think outside the box. People say all kinds of stupid things about how to make this stuff Kiefer also. Have a jug of Kiefer sitting on the floor by my desk chair it's been there since July I drink it but once every 3 days; it is basically separated so it's curds and whey. Clotted milk I guess is another name for it. I smell it I drink it I taste it I eat it. It tastes great.. That is the test. Thank you for your information

Wow u r what i was looking for buying his book right now thank you
I'm very excited! I've ordered the L. Reuteri starter, the yogurt maker and also purchased the Sugar Shift capsules. Can wait to get started on this part of my journey.
Thank you for this video and all of your hard work getting the information out to everyone.
I hope you love it! You're so welcome. I feel like this will be a game changer for healing!
@@CulturedFoodLife I hope so. So many are hurting, mentally, emotionally and physically.... and right now also monetarily. 😒
@@CulturedFoodLife just received the l. reuteri starter... going to get started right away. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💗
@@CulturedFoodLife can I use xanthan gum rather than guar gum.
Is Bob's Redmill potato starch the right thing?
Where are the links to the L. Reuteri starter, yogurt maker, and Sugar Shift capsules? It's really frustrating to listen to this podcast and not be able to find the links to the products needed to get started
Kefir is on my shopping list !! 👍🏼👍🏼 TY BOTH for such wonderful information 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I have a daughter that has a problem with weight and I thought if I could somehow get hold of all of these strains of bacteria and make it for her, maybe it would help her get better even if she doesn't lose a lot of weight.
Thanks to both of you!
WOW!!! I'm glad I saw this!!! I never feel good either...I am going to have to try this!!!
I just prayed 🙏🙌 was led to your channel. THANK YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST !!!
Can L Reuteri be used to make Coconut Water Kefir?
Are there any other ways to make L Reuteri ferment that does NOT use dairy?
@Donna Schwenk
It is an amazing book super gut...i feel so smart knowing what i know
Omg I just learned about this recipe and made my first batch this week!! Turned into a fizzy feta cheese 😅😅 I will tweak and try again. Thanks so much for posting!!!
My 1st batch turned out very watery just like yours. Many comments elsewhere that this happens with the 1st batch. Nothing to really tweak. Just seed the 2nd batch with the first. My second batched turned out very firm.
@@mathfaster Thank you for this helpful tip!
Make sure the temperature doesn't get to high. This can start to kill the good bacteria. This will make a big difference.
@mathfaster and Donna thank you for the advice! I’ve been fermenting the mixture in a quart mason jar in the instant pot, sous vide function, 97* and 36 hrs. Maybe I’ll switch it to yogurt function. Also Donna you inspired me to start making milk kefir years ago and it’s still a kitchen staple. Thank you for that!!
@@joyfulalessi7628 I have an Instant Pot Pro and found it absolutely imperative that you test the temperature with an instant read thermometer to calibrate the temp of the yogurt setting. Setting at 100 F gave a water test temp of 110 F. Not what you want for L. Reteuri. I now set at 92 F for yogurt to get 100 F for fermenting. I tested over 2 1/2 hours and it kept a constant 100.
thumbs up. great podcast. will look for his products
Being new to fermenting dairy. I purchased and used both Cutting Edge Cultures Prebio Plus & LRiuteri Starter Cultures. Added 2Tblsp of Ebuo Plus and one packet of the Starter to Ultra Pasturized Organic Half and Half. First batch DID SEPERATE severely but since the substituted the starter with two tablespoons of the separated curds from batch ( generation) one. Great success have repeated this a few times with consistent great smooth sour results. MY QUESTION IS THIS! can I freeze the curds from the first generation and continue to use them? Or does freezing have any negative effect on the ability to be a starter. By the way I used my souse Vide at 99.5d for 36 hours in all process. Although I have purchased and waiting for my Luvele yogurt maker to arrive soon. I will probably try to use the starter again and spend time to cross all my T’s and dot all my I’s to get a “non separated” first batch. I am a born again believer in Fermented foods, making Kombucha, Kimchi, Saure Krout, and now dairy! I am a big believer that gut health will be a big step towards my health goals. I am a 0:04 low carb insulin sensitive old man trying to practice clean living so your help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks
Thank you for this video. I will be purchasing the starter. 😊
Hope you love it!
This was a great podcast I just wish Donna you would let Dr Williams speak more.
Donna does your starter include all the strains Dr. Davis has mentioned. In the L Rerteria starter, I just ordered. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I admire you so much. God bless you and all yours.
Can you ferment L gasseri together with the L reuteri?
I am a 71 year old and I started the reuteri yogurt 7 days ago. I have been drinking raw milk kefir for years and wondered if that could interfere with how the reuteri yogurt works? Is it OK to still consume the kefir later in the day? I have looked through the book and don’t see an answer. Thank you so much ……love your videos on this.
What is the benifit of reuteri..
I’m my opinion, L. Reuteri will not interfere with kefir.
What about raw milk?
The sibo hydrogen measuring tool does not seem to be on Dr Davis's website
Where can I find some of these different strains of bacteria that Dr Davis mentions?
Can you eat it without a gallbladder?
Great video 👌🏼
We dont have raw milk here in Norway , all is pasturized and homogenized . Do I remember correctly that someone said you could add butter to your full fat milk to become "un homogenized " again ?
Do you have a special yogurt maker you use?
Donna no one s saying where one may find these microbes...to buy them..
You two are correct! I've always felt this about the body .... and yes people think your crazy! That's okay. It's a good crazy. 😅❤
Hi Donna, Is your Lactobacillus Reuteri starter the exact same as Dr. Davis's starter as he mentions in another video that you only need to use his starter tablets once and thereafter use only the yogurt base?
Our LR Superfood contains a high concentration of the SD-5865 strain of L. Reuteri. Which is different from the starter in his book, however; here is what Dr. William Davis states in his book about our starter. "Another option: a yogurt-making kit using a different strain of L. Reuteri that, in preliminary experience, yields many of the same effects, called “LR Superfood Starter.” Check out these results on out starter: www.culturedfoodlife.com/l-reuteri-the-bacteria-youre-missing-and-the-superfood-yogurt-i-love/#results
Yes you can use some of the previous yogurt as a starter for the next few batches before needing a new packet. Hope this helps!
@@CulturedFoodLife And using the BioGaia capsules, we can go over a year using the resultant starter for future batches. What a savings!
Hi...
Can we buy this in NZ?
Did your daughter eat low carb the time she ate so much fermented food or just regular food?
Thank you 🙏
Is there any information on the gas tester you talk about that he shows the white or the black one and how to get those I don't see any links here in your description thing or comments and I don't see anything I can't find anything of him talking about it on a video can't find them on Amazon etcetera
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but can dogs benefit from this yogurt too? 🙏
I give it to my pug, his wrinkles have vanished but now he's always trying to hump my leg.

Donna, I just discovered your channel, and I am very excited to explore this way of healing. I am 72 years old, I have had histamine intolerance for most of my life. Foods high in histamine, including fermented foods, make me itch - particularly my scalp. I made sauerkraut a couple of weeks ago, and it really caused a lot of itching, so I stopped. It’s still sitting in my refrigerator. I plan to order the L Reuteri starter when the weather cools a little. Don’t want to risk the product being damaged in shipping. My question is, should I just go ahead and eat the fermented foods despite the discomfort they cause, hoping that eventually I will get better? Is there a system to adding additional fermented foods in a way that would be best in my situation?
Hi Susan I have a whole article on Histamines that should really help you: www.culturedfoodlife.com/histamines-and-fermented-foods/
Thank you, Donna! I will check it out!
WA aqqq Qatar pqaa3😅😅😅
Please tell me you have these 4 strains in this starter
What type of yogurt maker should I use to make reuteri yogurt
Hi Donna thank you for this powerful message, where do you seek your probiotics? I need it🙏♥️
You Are the best, thank you for the information
How do i know which microbe will benefit each specific condition?
Can someone suggest good
Strain of reuteri , this will help me in setting up yoghurt. Please share I live up in India
I am 75 yo and live a healthy active lifestyle, at least up to the point of trying the L Reuteri cultured dairy (A2) and Kefir. The kefir and cultured dairy were a delight and I used them sparingly. A couple of weeks into this experiment I ceased to be able to have a bowel movement without some sort of laxative. That was 2 months ago and this condition has had a hugely negative impact on my well being. Prior to this event I had no apparent digestive issues. I can only say to those considering buying into this fad; "Caveat emptor"
Thanks for the heads up! Everyone has a unique genetic profile and we never know how something, which may be healthy for the majority of us, will affect us as an individual.
My L. Reuteri starter packs came warm. Will they still be ok to use?
Love you Donna Your a God sent ❤️ were can I get this .
Hi Donna, I have an instant pot with a yogurt setting do you think that would work for this? Also could it be done with goat milk? Thanks
Many people use an instant pot. Using goat milk, you must heat it to about 180, then cool to 100-104 then proceed with the recipe, 100 F for 36 hours. (Unless you can find fresh, ultra pasteurized goat milk)
I had to have my instant pot on the normal/medium yogurt setting without the lid to get it to the right temperature. Trying it with water first for a few hours is a good idea.
See your owners manual, as I understand the yogurt setting, it heats the milk then cools it, then starter and flavorings added. So that heating feature would be bad. If it has the sous vide setting> set it for 100 F, test that temp after 1 hour.
@@janonthemtn Help! Do you keep the pressurized valve open or closed in the sous mode of operation in an instant pot?
@@francopp1124you are not using the pressure while using sous vide in your instant pot so you don't close the valve.
My question is if we use inulin in regular yogurt will it extend the time we can set the regular yogurt without it getting to whey like and separating?
Can you take anti microbials such as Candibactin and SIBO yogurt at the same time?
Has anyone tried making this with dry whole milk powder?
Hello Donna, thanks for the info, I live in Vietnam. How can I get my hands on L Reuteri here in SE Asia?
Hey Dan, any luck with this? Singapore here
Hi Donna. This was a great interview. I’m already having kefir everyday, and now I’m going to buy the yogurt machine, prebiotic and yogurt starter you recommend hoping to get these wonderful benefits. If I buy the Sugar Shift capsules, can I add that powder to the yogurt starter and Keifer yogurt? Do you think the strands of good bacteria in the capsules can enhance the bacteria in the yogurt and kefir? I’m wondering if those types of good bacteria can become part of the kefir and yogurt. Thx.
My questions exactly....I have wonderful yogurt going and would love to add these to the strains.... I use an instantpot on yogurt setting and it makes wonderful yogurt so thick!! And adding these would be wonderful. Have heartd that this is a harder type to make....so not sure....hope they answer us!!!! PLEAAASE!!!!
I’m so excited to come upon this-I just made a batch using the pills, crushed them and added with the gelatin- your pouches will make the process much easier.
If I’m using raw milk do you think I’ll get a firm yogurt or should I still add the gelatin like I normally do?
My yogurt is thicker when I use half and half and keep it culturing for 12 to 14 hours before refrigeration.
You shouldn't use raw milk for it. The raw milk won't thicken into yogurt and will compete with the L. Reuteri as raw milk has its own good bacteria. Pasteurized milk works best for this type of ferment.
@@susie2366 For L. Reuteri you need to ferment at 100 degrees for 36 hours to get the full benefits. It's a different type of ferment than traditional yogurt.
@@CulturedFoodLife thank you for answering my question! I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place then. I can consume raw milk but if I consume pasteurized my eczema breaks out.
I’d appreciate help figuring this out but if you don’t have the time-could you direct me to the info on this so I can see if I can find someway to make it work?
@@CulturedFoodLife all you need is to start the culture with pasteruizing your raw milk first. once you get it going. using it as a starter, raw milk is the best. since the fermentation will be too strong to let any other strains of bacteria take over. reuteri will be the main strain in the culture anyway if you get it going with it.
Help! Do you keep the pressurized valve open or closed in the sous mode of operation in the sous vide mode of an instant pot? Thank you!
I keep mine closed!
I keep mine open as you are not trying to put it under pressure.

Hi Donna. Can other full fat Greek Yogurt (Choboni) with live cultures be added to the new batch of l ruteri for additional benefits.
No, it's different bacteria.
When I click on the link for the L. Reuteri starter it says the page does not exist. Maybe the link is broken...?
I fixed it!
I am still searching for the recipe for L. Crispatus "yogurt" Dr. Davis talked about on recent interviews. Has anyone else found it?
Do a web search for ' dr. Davis vagina yogurt'. He states: Ferment using the same conditions as that used for L. reuteri.
How do you make this yogurt?
If he wants to make sure he is growing the 6475 strain then why not sterilize the growth medium and container and use the Osfortis product which is just 6475?
Mine separates after 2 days so I refrigerate it.. what do you suggest?
Can you use kefir as a base using Lactobacillus reuteri bacteria species, or do you have to ferment in a yogurt maker. What about jars or large keifir jars?
Donna is your product the same Bio Gaia l Reuteri
I am off grid and have no way to make the yoghurt. Is it possible to buy it instead?
Gangsta. Off-grid status with no solar capability. How do you electrify your devices? Work?
Store bought is never as good
Is this yogurt for sale anywhere already made? I don’t think I’m up to making my own.
Pre-made is never as good as what you make. Quit being a chump
I’m in Canada and I’m having a hard time finding uht half and half. Can I just use regular organic half and half?
Yes
Would this yogurt help solve diarrhea problems
I am lucky to have access to raw milk and wonder why dr Davis recommends half and half and not raw milk. Any ideas?
This is because the good bacteria in raw milk is dominate and will compete with L. Reuteri, which is also a dominate strain.
Dominant** lol
How do I get this ?
I want try this , be healthy pls I want this Yogurt How do I order this.
Can I purchase this in Australia
i would like to know too. I wish they could ship internationally....
You can get the BioGaia tablets from Amazon.
You can also get the starter from Amazon
Do I have to use Inulin to make the yogurt...is there something else that can take its place? I am allergic to artichokes, so can't use that.
You can use inulin made from chicory root
I pretty sure I have SIBO but when I tried kefir I was so miserable the bout of diahrrea lasted two days…. Do symptoms get worse with effective treatment before they get better?
I had an antibiotic 3 years ago n got the worst itchy butt. BUT everytime i take kefir or probiotics it reduces. Im like down to 5% left. I think if you stick at it. Or take less?
Does stay for 3days
Build up the amount you drink very slowly.
Does it matter if you use potato starch in place of Inulin?
No, I use potato starch and it works perfectly.
I used 2 spoons of honey (manuka honey) and it turned out delicious! Best yogurt I've ever tasted. It wasn't really sweet either, just tangy and wonderful.
Coming today.
I got a gallon of raw milk.
But I got a kilogram of inulin powder.
Should be good to go
Donna, I bought the live milk kefir grain from you. Does it contain the same L. Reuteri?
No, kefir is a different Probiotic.
I am going to attempt my first batch of l reurteri yogurt tonight ..trying to research enough so I don't mess it up lol..my gut needs some serious help...

Thanks madam..since i am making raw milk kefir from ur video..just asking kefir also has lactobasillus reuter bacteria???
Yes I am also curious if it’s in kefir.
@@ginaburson4982 please ask the expert..
@@adhikariindia Kefir doest not contain L. Reuteri. So this ferment will be a real game changer! You shouldn't use raw milk though for making this ferment. It has its own good bacteria and can compete with the L. Reuteri for food. It also won't thicken properly at the 100 degrees required temp. Pasteurized milk will work great. It's a very different style of ferment than traditional yogurt or even kefir. hope this helps!
How young of a child can take this yogurt?
Can i ad to raw kefir???
Since my second batch
My l Reuteri is getting yellow patches sigh black dots.. what am i doing wrong ? I love it and don’t want to be without it. I can’t keep buying the pills I’m on a very tight fixed income. Also where can I buy L. Gasseri??
Freeze your original batch in ice cube trays. The typical sized ice cube is 2 tablespoons. After they are frozen keep in a ziploc bag in the freezer. Take out a cube, put it in a small jar in the refrigerator the night before you are going to start your new batch so it can thaw. Use it for your new batch. It will have the strength of the original batch. If you freeze lots of cubes it will start lots of new batches!
@@tammycraine7493thank you!!
How much can or should I consume per day?
He says 1/2 cup.
Please do indicate to your viewers the caution, promoted by Dr. Davis himself, that you do NOT want to blend or mix this yogurt at high speed as vigorous blending will kill the microorganisms. Two scenarios as quoted from our Inner Circle Forum: "shear forces in the mix can tear the poor L.reuteri apart and mechanical heating will kill them." If you want to retain the massive probiotic count generated by our 36-42 hour L. reuteri yogurt, do not blend at high speed!
You can blend it and you'll still get massive benefits. I was told the same thing about kefir and the benefits are still there in both my own experience and what i've seen through helping others as well.
Hi, J H,
I have a bottle of multi-strain probiotic capsules and want to use it to make coconut milk yogurt. There are 14 strains in one capsule with total 30 billion CFU, and two of the 14 strains only have 0.1 billion CFU each. For my 1st batch, do I need to use 20 capsules to get each strain to 2 billion CFU? Or just 1 capsule is good enough? Thanks!
I've heard you can still blend and it won't hurt them. But I wouldn't blend the probiotics myself. nobody needs a blend in their lives lol

That makes sense to me at somebody said don't use a coffee frother because it'll kill the bacteria that just makes no sense to me whatsoever from a plain physics basis. Gigantic metal object going to kill microscopic organism doesn't make any sense!
I guess.
Everybody has a brain we are supposed to use them.
Not to mention that it's my money and I can experiment.
We need to think outside the box.
People say all kinds of stupid things about how to make this stuff Kiefer also. Have a jug of Kiefer sitting on the floor by my desk chair it's been there since July I drink it but once every 3 days; it is basically separated so it's curds and whey.
Clotted milk I guess is another name for it.
I smell it I drink it I taste it I eat it. It tastes great.. That is the test.
