About Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based beverage that millions drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the cost of such medical studies. There are several centuries of anecdotal accounts telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold commercially but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a spongy mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This forms the kombucha culture which is also referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not a true mushroom. It slowly forms on the very surface of the tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and looks like a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of a large number):

Testimonial - Bone Calcification:Condensed Translation; This person states that he/she was suffering from severe pain caused by a shoulder calcification that the physician said could only be corrected by a surgical procedure. After drinking Kombucha for 20 days the pain was gone and no trace of the calcification is seen in Xrays.

"Durante tres largos años tuve fuertes dolores en mi hombro izquierdo a causa de na calcificación que segun las radiografias solo podia ser retirada con una operación monitoreada y claro sin un resultado del 100%. Un dia me sente frente al computador y le pedi a Dios ayudarme con un medicamento natural para salir de mi problema, algo que me limito la vida por años. Dios me escucho pues lei un comentario sobre el tè de KOMBUCHA, empece a tomarlo y en menos de 20 dias el dolor en mi hombro habia desaparecido, tuve una nueva cita con el ortopedista y se tomarón nuevas radiografias esta vez el calcio solo hera una sombra. Esto fue dos semanas atras, en este momento que escribo mi testimonio me siento mejor que nunca y siento que el calcio que aparecia en la ultima radiografia a desaparecido por completo. Me siento bendecido por tener la oportunidad de saber y disfrutar de esta maravillosa fuente de vida que es el tè de KOMBUCHA... R. DE. J."

Is Kombucha safe?

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

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

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The FDA has found this remarkable tea to be a safe beverage provided it is correctly prepared in a clean manner so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you prepare can become contaminated but the risk is probably less for Kombucha because it is a fermented beverage and as it ferments it makes a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

Nobody has ever died from drinking correctly made Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily and have done so for over two millennium. One thousand people a year die from taking aspirin, so which do you think is safer!

Kombucha Tea is a fermented beverage and , but some few people might be sensitive to any number of things. An allergic is usually just a reddening of the skin or itch.

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit juice, unless it is permitted to ferment longer and to a more sour state. Drinking Kombucha Tea wil not change the pH level of your blood unless you were to large amounts of the tea when it is sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking very large amounts of anything is hardly a smart thing to do.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom might develop a mold but this is not common. Most common food molds are not harmful but they can ruin the taste of the tea. This minor problem can be easily prevented by keeping the fermenting tea properly covered and if it should occur is easily detected and you simple make a new batch of tea."]
