Question of the month; Does Kombucha Tea really work? Answer is...Absolutely yes! If it didn't improve health why have millions of people have kept drinking it and preparing it, for over two thousand years.

What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a effervescent tea-based drink that millions drink for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific data supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the cost of such studies. There are several centuries of anecdotal accounts supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold commercially but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a solid mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This forms the kombucha culture which is also often popularly referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not really a mushroom. It forms on the surface of the fermenting tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of many):

Testimonial - Energy: "I LOVE kombucha!! I brewed my first batch successfully last week! My second batch should be done tomorrow.

He drank kombucha for a week and he now has no pain, even with bad weather coming! I love this stuff. Thank you so much for all your help and information! It is really not as hard as people make it out to be! ... B.L.M."

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The F.D.A. has stated that this remarkable tea to be a safe drink provided it is correctly prepared in a clean way so as not to be contaminated by pathogens.

No person has ever died from drinking correctly prepared Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for thousands of years. One thousand people a year die from taking aspirin, so which do you think is safer!
