What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based drink that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the cost of such studies. There are several centuries of anecdotal stories supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold in stores but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a spongy mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This produces the kombucha culture which is also most commonly referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not really a mushroom. It forms on the surface of the fermenting tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a whitish colored pancake.

Most ask this question because they know that some mushrooms are toxic or they have been told misinformation about Kombucha. Kombucha is not a mushroom and it is not poisonous. People only call it a mushroom, it is not a mushroom.

Kombucha has been used for health improvement for thousands of years and is now being widely sold in health food in the U.S., far less expensive to make it yourself.

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The F.D.A. has stated that this remarkable tea to be a safe beverage provided it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to be contaminated by pathogens. Any food that you make has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less for Kombucha because it is a fermented beverage which as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

No one has ever died from drinking correctly prepared Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for over 2000 years. It is safer than aspirin. There are 1000 aspirin related aspirin deaths yearly.

Kombucha Tea is a fermented drink and , but some few people may be sensitive to any number of things. A reaction is usually just a minor skin blush or a minor.

The tea is acidic but no more so than grapefruit juice or orange juice, unless it is allowed to ferment too long in which case it becomes more sour. Drinking Kombucha Tea cannot change the pH level of your blood unless you were to large amounts of the tea when it is sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking huge quantities of anything is usually not a good idea.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom could develop a mold but this is not common. Most common household food molds are not harmful but they can spoil the taste of the tea. This small problem is easily avoided by keeping the brewing jar properly covered and if it should occur is easily detected and you simple make a new batch of tea."]
