Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a effervescent tea-based drink that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific information supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the cost of such studies. There are several centuries of popular accounts supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available commercially but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a solid mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This produces the kombucha culture which is also referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not really a mushroom. It slowly grows on the very surface of the tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and resembles a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of hundreds):

Testimonial - General Health, Skin Health: "I discovered kombucha about 10 years ago. I was 6ft, 150 lbs, coffee drinkin smoker. after drinking kombucha for a couple of weeks I quit drinking coffee. 2 months after I quit smoking. I drank kombucha for about 6 months and gained 30 lbs of healthy body mass. For a while I was drinking a pint a day. I craved it so much. as my health improved the craving for it deminished and I lost interest in the sunday tea making ritual. Now I find myself craving it again. I have been trying to find a new source for a while and came across this site. It is great to see something like this available. If kombucha isn't the turning water into wine story then I dont know what is. I discovered that the strongest tea is a great cold sore remedy, and that an old kombucha whipped up in the blender makes the greatest hand and body lotion. One aplication will give 2 to 3 days of dry skin relief. and its free..!!! No wonder doctors or pharmacutical companies won't even look at it. Well that is my 2 cents worth. Time to order a new baby and find the old pickle bottles. I can taste it now :) ... D.R.M."
