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

Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based drink 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 expense of such studies. There are many centuries of popular accounts telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available in stores but can easily be made at home by fermenting tea using a spongy mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This produces the kombucha culture which is also most commonly referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not really a mushroom. It 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 dozens and dozens):

Testimonial - General Health, Gray Hair: "I was first introduced to KM Tea in 1994 by a white-haired smoker who I happened to play a monthly round of golf with over the course of that spring, summer and fall. About the second round, he started yapping on and on about Kombucha tea, how his emphazima was going away, and about all the people he knew whose health problems were going away, ect. Then one evening I was watching TV when my favorite local Newslady, Linda Cavenaugh in Oklahoma City was interviewing two ladies who had been in poor health for years until finding Kombucha Tea. Now they were enjoying life again and thrilled to be back in their gardens.

What next caught my attention was that the color of my golfing companion's hair had started to take on a slight reddish blush. When I asked, he said he had been a redhead.

I brought my first KM back from Oklahoma that fall and have been drinking it nearly every day since then. When traveling, I take some in tightly sealed containers in my checked luggage or buy some at conscious food stores.

I have noticed many people whose comments indicate that they drink 16-24 ounces per day. I have been drinking about 6-8 ounces per day with great results. During the past 13 years, there have been only two days when I didn't feel like going to work.

I started drinking KMT when I was 50 and have about the same amount of gray hair now that I did then. After I was on the Tea for about 6 months, my longtime hair stylist asked if I was dying my hair. When I told her about the KMT, she said that a lady client of hers had started the Tea and after 2 years had gone from mainly grey to mainly brown.

For me the main benefits have been not getting sick, having more energy now than I did in my 30s and 40s, and knowing that I will never get cancer. In the past 10 years, I have had health insurance but have never had a claim, other than for tests... J.M.T."

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 it is not poisonous. People only call it a mushroom, it is not a mushroom.

Kombucha has been used for health improvement for over 2000 years and is now being widely sold in health food 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 stated that Kombucha Tea to be a safe beverage provided it is prepared properly in a clean way so as not to become contaminated by pathogens. All foods that you make has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less so 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.

No person has died from drinking properly made Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily and have done so for over 2000 years. It is safer than aspirin. There are 1000 aspirin related aspirin deaths yearly.

Kombucha Tea is a fermented drink and , but some few people could be allergic to any number of things. A reaction is usually just a minor skin blush or itch.

The tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit juice, unless it is allowed to ferment too long then it becomes more acidic. Drinking Kombucha Tea cannot change the pH level of your blood unless you were to huge amounts of the tea when it is sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking very large quantities of anything is usually not a good idea.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom may develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common food molds are harmless but they can spoil the taste of the tea. This limited problem is easily prevented by keeping the brewing jar properly covered and if it should occur is easily detected and you simple make a new batch of tea."]
