About Kombucha

Kombucha is a delicious tea-based beverage that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific data supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the cost of such studies. There are many centuries of anecdotal accounts 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 produces the kombucha culture which is also most often referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not a true mushroom. It forms on the very surface of the tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and resembles a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of a large number):

Testimonial - Energy, Clarity of Thought: "I am a 19 year old male. In this past year my energy levels seem to have been going only downhill. I have recently started drinking and making my own Kombucha Tea, about 2 weeks ago. Within a couple days of starting this amazing tea I have noticed my energy levels have GREATLY increased. I am able to focus and think more clearly and just feel better! Just a couple of weeks ago I was beginning to wonder if I was suffering from chronic fatigue, but not anymore! Getting up in the morning used to be a chore, but now I wake up relaxed and refreshed. Try this tea, you will not be disappointed, it is simply amazing! ... J.P."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

Most ask this question because are aware that some mushrooms are poisonous or they have been told misinformation 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 widely sold in health food in the USA, it is a lot cheaper to make it yourself.

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The FDA has found this remarkable tea to be a safe beverage provided it is prepared properly in a clean way so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you prepare has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less for Kombucha because it is a fermented drink which as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

Nobody has ever died from drinking properly made 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 some few people could be sensitive to any number of things. An allergic is usually just a minor skin blush or a minor.

The tea is acidic but no more so than grapefruit juice or orange juice, unless it is permitted to ferment too long in which case it becomes more sour. 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 sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking huge quantities of anything is usually not a good idea.

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