Question of the month; Does Kombucha really improve health? Answer is...It absolutely does! If it did not better health why would millions of people keep drinking it and making it, for over 2000 years.

Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a effervescent tea-based drink that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the expense of such studies. There are several centuries of anecdotal stories telling of 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 grows on the surface of the tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of numerous):

Testimonial - Prostate, Costs: "I am so greatful for your help in getting me started in this new habit. By having a constant supply of this healthful beverage, I have been able to minimise the perscription medication I take for prostate trouble. The perscripton medication is known to cause cancer and cost $10 per month. The enzymes and supplements that I've been buying as a health conscious alternative cost 4 times as much. There's no tax deduction for vitimines like there is for carsinogenic perscriptions! As we enter into the recession of , I am very greatful to find the cost advantage of making my own kombucha tea! ... K.G."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

Most ask this question because they know that some fungi are poisonous or they have been told misinformation about Kombucha. Kombucha is not a mushroom it is not toxic. People only call it a mushroom, it is not 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 F.D.A. has found Kombucha Tea to be a safe drink if it is prepared properly in a clean way so as not to become contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you make has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha as it is a fermented beverage and as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

No person has ever died from drinking properly prepared Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage 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 beverage and , but then again some few people could be allergic to any number of things. A reaction is usually just a minor skin blush or itch.

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit juice, unless it is permitted to ferment longer and to a more sour state. Drinking Kombucha Tea cannot 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 large quantities of anything is hardly a smart thing to do.

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