About Kombucha

Kombucha is a effervescent tea-based beverage that is often drunk 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 cost of such studies. There are many centuries of anecdotal accounts telling of 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 grows on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of dozens and dozens):

Testimonial - Mouth Sores, Stomach problems: "I have a sores on my tongue, which I suspect is tongue cancer. I have gone to the doctor, and a biopsy was done, but negative cancer. The side effects of the sores are such, that I have grumbling stomach, and a pass through the anus, which I can't control. This has improved, and the sores on the tongue are drying, since I started drinking Kombucha Tea. God is doing great in my health through his creation, KT. I thank God for this wonderful drink for saving my life in a developing nation like Papua New Guinea, where medical services are not adequate. I praise God Almighty for his grace. Love you LORD, my master... P.M."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

Most ask this question because are aware that some fungi 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 has been used as a health remedy for over two millennium it is now being sold in food and health 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 this remarkable tea to be a safe drink if it is correctly prepared in a clean way so as not to be contaminated by pathogens. Any food that you make has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha because it is a fermented beverage and as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

Nobody has died from drinking properly prepared Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily 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 beverage and , but some few people could be sensitive to any number of things. An allergic is usually just a skin reddening or itch.

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit 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 large quantities of the tea when it is very sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking very large quantities of anything is hardly a smart thing to do.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom may develop a mold but this is not common. Most common household food molds are harmless but a contamination can ruin the taste of the tea. This small 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."]
