What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based beverage 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 cost of such studies. There are several centuries of anecdotal accounts telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold 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 often popularly referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not a true mushroom. It forms on the surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of hundreds):

Testimonial - Cancer, Weight Loss, High Blood Pressure: " In September of 1996 I had a growth removed from my lower left side of my back and October 1996 was diagnosed with "Cutaeneous B-cell Lymphoma. Twenty six new tumors grew after the removal of 1 and I received radiation on that spot while being told this is a very rare type of cancer that always returns and grows new tumors. "Usually within 10 years patients lose the battle. "Get your affairs in order and pull out all the stops, try anything, I can't even give you a prognosis" was what I was told.

After 3rd degree burns fon my back from radiation and obesity, hypertension, and other problems I began to use Kombucha tea , the "water cure" and took supplements-including dietary changes. I got tons of energy, lost weight and my blood pressure went down. Within 6 months (March of 1997) there was no sign of any cancer. Even the radiation poisoning cleared up. Now almost 8 years after diagnosis I am still cancer free.

My Kombucha was destroyed during a break in at my home (December 1997) so I stopped brewing my tea. Now overweight again and hypertensive I know I want Kombucha in my life agan and for the rest of my life. Delicious, nutricious, energizing, and in my case-life saving! ... A.J.B."
