Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a delicious tea-based beverage that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific information supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the expense of such medical studies. There are many centuries of anecdotal stories telling of 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 most commonly referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not a true mushroom. It forms on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of hundreds):

Testimonial - Hair Growth, Energy: "A few years back, at the age of 18, I had lost 50% of my hair in a period of one month! The doctor advised me to eat more meat, but I didn't because I wasn't a big meat-eater. Instead I went to the health food store and asked what to do. I was told to drink even 3-4oz of kombucha tea every morning on an empty stomach. I did, and within the first few months found that my hair was sprouting up like grass. Literally. I am sure this is what did it. It was the most dramatic result I had ever seen. Both my husband and I are drinking it, and my friends too. It also increases energy level... S.L."

Drinking Kombucha Tea wil not change the pH level of your blood unless you drink huge quantities of the tea when it is sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking very large amounts of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

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