About Kombucha

Kombucha is a delicious 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 or have been conducted mainly due to the cost of such medical studies. There are many centuries of popular stories 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 forms the kombucha culture which is also referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not a true mushroom. It slowly forms on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a whitish colored pancake.

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

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

Kombucha has been used as a health remedy for over 2000 years and is now being sold in health shops and grocery stores in the U.S., far less expensive to make it yourself.

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The FDA has found Kombucha Tea to be a safe beverage if it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you make can become contaminated but the risk is probably less for Kombucha as it is a fermented beverage which as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

No person has ever died from drinking correctly prepared 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 then again some few people could be allergic to any number of things. An allergic 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 amounts of the tea when it is sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking large amounts of anything is usually not a good idea.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom might develop a mold but this is not common. Most common food molds are not harmful but they can spoil 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."]
