Question of the week; Does Kombucha Tea really work? Answer is...It absolutely does! If it did not better health why have millions of people keep drinking it and brewing it, for over 2000 years.

Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based beverage that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific data supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the cost of such medical studies. There are many centuries of popular stories supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold 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 most often 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 whitish colored pancake.

Kombucha Tea safe?

Most ask this question because they have heard that some fungi are poisonous or they have been told misinformation about Kombucha. Kombucha is not a mushroom it is not toxic. It is only "popularly" called a mushroom.

Kombucha has been used for health improvement for thousands of years it is now being sold in health shops and grocery stores in the USA, it is a lot cheaper to make it yourself.

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The F.D.A. has found this remarkable tea to be a safe drink if it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to become contaminated by pathogens. Any food that you prepare can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha as it is a fermented beverage which as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

No person has ever died from drinking properly prepared Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily and have done so for over 2000 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 might be sensitive to any number of things. A reaction is usually just a minor skin blush or a minor.

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

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom may 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 small problem is easily avoided by keeping the brewing jar properly covered and if it should occur is easily detected and you simple make a new batch of tea."]
