Those obsessed with health are not healthy; the first requisite of good health is a certain calculated carelessness about oneself. ~Sydney J. Harris

Question of the week; Does Kombucha really work? Answer is...It absolutely does! If it did not help to improve health why would millions of people keep drinking it and brewing it, for over 2000 years.

What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based beverage that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific information 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 stories telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold commercially but can easily be made at home 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 a true mushroom. It slowly grows on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of dozens and dozens):

Testimonial - Aging: "I've shared Kombucha mushroom cultures with many people over the passed 25 years. We drink some everyday. I am 76 years in Dec and my husband is 80 years next April. People do not believe our age because of our looks and our energy level. We love life and try to use those things put here on earth for our health. Thank you!... F.H."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

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

Kombucha has been used as a health remedy for over two millennium it is now being sold in food and health 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 found Kombucha Tea to be a safe beverage provided it is correctly prepared in a clean way so as not to be 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 makes a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

No person has died from drinking correctly made Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily and have done so for over two millennium. It is safer than aspirin. There are 1000 aspirin related aspirin deaths yearly.

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

Kombucha 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 drink large amounts of the tea when it is very sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking large amounts of anything is hardly a smart thing to do.

A Kombucha mushroom might develop a mold but this is not common. Most common food molds are harmless but a contamination can ruin the taste of the tea. This small 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."]
