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 expense of such studies. There are many centuries of popular accounts telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold commercially 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 a true mushroom. It slowly forms on the surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of numerous):

Testimonial - Colds, Flu, Weight, Arthritis: "I made and drank my own Kombucha tea for about 1 1/2 years before I left it ferment too long once and my culture died. Well, the main thing I noticed was that I did not get one cold or flu for the entire time I was drinking it. Also, I lost a small amount of weight initially and my arthritis was at least a little improved. After not drinking it for about a month, I came down with a terrible cold or colds with the symptoms lasting over two months! Well, needless to say I have started drinking Kombucha again and we'll see if it keeps the viruses at bay. My hair is still grey though... T.L.C."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

Most ask this question because are aware that some fungi are toxic or they have been told misinformation about Kombucha. Kombucha is not a mushroom it is not toxic. It is only "popularly" called a mushroom.

Kombucha Tea has been used for health improvement for thousands of years it is now being sold in food and health in the USA, it is a lot cheaper 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 manner so as not to become contaminated by pathogens. All foods that you make has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less 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.

Nobody 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 drink and , but then again some few people may be sensitive to any number of things. A reaction is usually just a reddening of the skin or a minor.

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than grapefruit juice or orange juice, unless it is allowed to ferment longer and to a more sour state. Drinking Kombucha Tea cannot change the pH level of your blood unless you were to very large quantities of the tea when it is very sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking very large quantities of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

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