10. Kefir

Kefir is a fermented milk drink with one of the highest counts of probiotics of any food. Most yogurts contain two or three bacterial strains — kefir typically contains 12 or more. These bacteria support gut balance and regular bowel movements. Kefir is also worth trying if you're lactose intolerant, as the fermentation process breaks down most of the lactose. If you're new to kefir, start with a small amount and build up gradually to let your gut adjust.
