Question of the month; Does Kombucha Tea really work? Answer is...It absolutely does! If it did not better health why have millions of people have kept drinking it and making it, for thousands of years.

What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based drink that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific information supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the cost of such medical studies. There are many centuries of anecdotal stories supporting 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 forms the kombucha culture which is also referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not a true mushroom. It grows on the very surface of the tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and looks like 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 poisonous. People only call it a mushroom, it is not a mushroom.

Kombucha has been used as a health remedy for over 2000 years it is now being widely sold in health food in the USA, far less expensive to make it yourself.

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The FDA has found Kombucha Tea to be a safe drink if it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to become contaminated by pathogens. All foods that you prepare can become contaminated but the risk is probably less for Kombucha as it is a fermented beverage and as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

No one has died from drinking correctly prepared Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for thousands of 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 might be sensitive to any number of different 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 longer and to a more sour state. Drinking Kombucha Tea wil not change the pH level of your blood unless you were to large quantities of the tea when it is sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking huge amounts of anything is hardly a smart thing to do.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom may develop a mold but this is not common. Most common food molds are not harmful but they can ruin the taste of the tea. This minor 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."]
