Question of the month; Does Kombucha really work? Answer is...Absolutely yes! If it didn't 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 purposes. There is scientific info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the expense of such medical studies. There are several centuries of popular accounts telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold commercially but can easily be made at home by fermenting tea using a solid mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This produces the kombucha culture which is also most commonly referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not really a mushroom. It grows on the surface of the fermenting tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of a large number):

Testimonial - Energy: "I just finished my first week with Kombucha and right now I am in the process of starting the brew of my fourth batch. Let me tell you, I was skeptical of all the claims made about this elixir. The key word being was!! If nothing more, my energy level has increased dramatically this week, the tea is wonderful for that. My coffee comsumption has decreased by about half without me realizing it until my clerk at work asked me if she wasn't making it right for me anymore. All this in one week, I can't wait until it has been a month or more, so I can come back and tell you more of the benefits I am gaining from this!! (have my fingers crossed that my hair color will return to it's once beautiful red)... Thank you for introducing me to this wonder tea... M.E.A."

Kombucha Tea safe?

Most ask this question because they have heard that some fungi are poisonous 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 for health improvement for over two millennium it is now being sold in health shops and grocery stores in the USA, far less expensive 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 manner so as not to be contaminated by common food 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 creates a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

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. 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 allergic to any number of different things. A reaction is usually just a skin reddening or a minor.

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

A Kombucha mushroom might develop a mold but this is not common. Most common food molds are not harmful but a contamination can ruin the taste of the tea. This minor problem is easily avoided by keeping the brewing jar properly coveredKombucha is not known to counteract negatively with most all prescribed medications.

There is nothing that is naturally dangerous about this beneficial beverage; it is a great tasting drink that can help to improve your health!
