Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based beverage that millions drink 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 several centuries of anecdotal accounts supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available commercially but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a spongy mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This forms the kombucha culture which is also most commonly referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not a true mushroom. It slowly grows on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of numerous):

Testimonial - Skin, Hair, Service: "I made and drank Kombucha religiously for 3 years and know from experience that the health benefits are phenomonal. The difference in skin and hair are amazing. When we moved to our new home my Kombucha was accidently destroyed. I had tried in vain to find another starter, but everyone I had given one to, and the person who gave me my initial starter, had gotten tired of the brewing process and let their's die. Ironically they had realized the difference and were also looking for a new starter. Last year after finaly venturing into Internet-land I decided to check for Kombucha and found this site. I ordered a starter and have had my wonderful Kombucha tea ever since. This site is wonderful, orders are quickly delivered with much care in the packaging, the Kombucha is authentic not scrap or scam and recently I had reason to call for help with a minor Kombucha problem and the gentleman I spoke with was polite and courteous. He took his time and helped me with my problem step by step. In other words his services are just wonderful. If anyone has any doubts about Kombucha it's great and so is this site and company. I would advise anyone to go Kombucha America and get their starter from this company... K.D."

Is Kombucha safe?

Most ask this question because they know that some mushrooms are poisonous or they have been misinformed about Kombucha. Kombucha is not a mushroom and it is not toxic. It is only "popularly" called a mushroom.

Kombucha Tea has been used as a health remedy for over 2000 years and is now being sold in food and health in the U.S., 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 stated that Kombucha Tea to be a safe drink provided it is prepared properly in a clean way so as not to become contaminated by common food pathogens. All foods that you prepare can become contaminated but the risk is probably less for Kombucha as it is a fermented beverage which as it ferments it makes a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

No one has ever died from drinking properly prepared Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for over 2000 years. One thousand people a year die from taking aspirin, so which do you think is safer!

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 skin reddening or a minor.

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

A Kombucha mushroom may develop a mold but this is not common. Most common such molds are harmless 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."]
