Occupy Wall Street has taken over headlines, with thousands of protesters calling attention to perceived social and economic inequality.

Lifeway kefir is jampacked with seven to ten billions CFUs of probiotics, live and active cultures that occupy your GI tract to calm tummy troubles and boost overall immunity.

We matched them head to head – see which occupier emerged on top.

Boulder, CO is know for a lot of things – bicycles, dogs, recycling, dreadlocks, maybe a little medical marijuana here and there. But throughout October, residents of this crunchy town, consistently voted one of the nation’s fittest, have had a new cowboy in town: Lifeway kefir.

And the secret ingredient is...

Iron Chef fans know the drill: Every week, world-class chefs battle the legendary Iron Chefs of America: Bobby Flay, Mario Batali, Masaharu Morimoto, Cat Cora and more. In the opening minutes inside Kitchen Stadium the famed "secret ingredient" is revealed, and both chefs must incorporate it – whether it’s lobster tail, squid, eggs or kale – into each of their dishes.

Our only question: What do we have to do to have Lifeway kefir featured as the “secret ingredient” on this cult hit?

We only ask because celeb chef Domenica Catelli, a recurring judge on Iron Chef America, recently blogged about healthy school lunches for Huffington Post and included a tasty idea for a mini-parfait:

Layer 1/4 cup Bear Naked Peak Energy Trail Mix

with

1/2 cup low-fat flavored kefir

and

1/2 cup fresh berries or sliced apples.

She’s not the only one in-the-know recommending kefir as a healthy nosh. Real Simple magazine suggests washing down a juicy peach with a cup of low-fat kefir for a low-cal, high-protein treat.

Glamour magazine calls us “smooth and creamy,” and Men’s Fitness suggests blending kefir with strawberries and honey for a midnight shake snack. Oh, and Men's Health Editor in Chief David Zincenko has touted a product us as one of six essential flat belly foods.

These people set the trends, so unless you wanna be left in the dust, eating a boring cup of yogurt, we suggest you hightail it over to the grocery store and snag a bottle or two of Lifeway kefir. Then go whip us up a three-course lobster dinner, will ya?

A model cause

She’s caused billions to wonder, “Maybe She's Born With It?” with her trademark Maybelline ad campaigns, strutted down countless catwalks, starred in George Michaels’ infamously sexy Freedom music video, and authored a book, Living Yoga: Creating A Life Practice. Now, supermodel Christy Turlington Burns http://christyturlington.com/ is embarking on a new project: Every Mother Counts, her global campaign to raise awareness and improve the health and lives of mothers and children everywhere. And Lifeway is beyond thrilled to be a part of it.

Are Scientists Playing With Your Food?

A genetically modified organism (GMO) is a food, seed, plant or animal that has had its genetic material altered in a lab for some perceived benefit – typically to help it resist insects, viruses, or pesticides. That means a tomato can be tinkered with to flourish in harsh conditions or fish genes can be spliced to boost population numbers.

In the Lifeway kefir family, we’ve got bottles of all different shapes and sizes. Mama and Papa Kefir are 32 oz. tall and strong to manage the household. Our first bundle of joy, Daughter Kefir, entered the world at 8 oz of low-fat peachy goodness. And then, imagine how shocked we were when we learned we were having quadruplets! Mama Kefir delivered a four-pack of 5 oz Baby Boy Probugs, all of whom we nicknamed Gooberry, a la George Foreman.
