Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a delicious tea-based drink that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the cost of such medical studies. There are many centuries of popular accounts supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold commercially 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" but it is not a true mushroom. It slowly forms on the surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a near whitish colored pancake.

Is Kombucha safe?

Most ask this question because they have heard that some mushrooms are toxic or they have been told misinformation about Kombucha. Kombucha is not a mushroom it is not poisonous. People only call it a mushroom, it is not a mushroom.

Kombucha Tea has been used for health improvement for over 2000 years it is now being widely sold in health food in the U.S., it is a lot cheaper to make it yourself.

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The FDA has found Kombucha Tea to be a safe drink if it is correctly prepared 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 so for Kombucha because it is a fermented beverage and as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

No person has died from drinking properly made Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily and have done so for over 2000 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 may be sensitive to any number of things. An allergic is usually just a reddening of the skin 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 cannot change the pH level of your blood unless you were to large 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 likely. Most common such molds are not harmful but they can ruin the taste of the tea. This minor problem is easily prevented by keeping the fermenting tea properly covered and if it should occur is easily detected and you simple make a new batch of tea."]
