About Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based beverage that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific data supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the cost of such studies. There are many centuries of popular accounts 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 often referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not really a mushroom. It slowly forms on the surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a whitish colored pancake.

Is Kombucha safe?

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

Kombucha Tea has been used as a health remedy for thousands of years and is now being sold in health shops and grocery stores in the USA, 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 way so as not to become contaminated by common food pathogens. All foods that you make can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha as it is a fermented beverage which as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

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

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

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit 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 huge quantities of the tea when it is very sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking large quantities of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

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