Question of the month; Does Kombucha really work? Answer is...Yes! If it did not better health why would millions of people keep drinking it and brewing it, for over two thousand years.

What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a effervescent tea-based drink that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific information supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the cost of such medical studies. There are several centuries of popular 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 solid mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This produces the kombucha culture which is also most often referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not really a mushroom. It forms on the surface of the tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and resembles a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of numerous):

Testimonial - Insomnia, Pain Relief: "I was very impressed with the expediency of the order. It came within a few days. The instructions are easy to follow. I am making it in large glass apothecary jars with a paper towel and elastic over the top . Then I put a dark pillow case over the whole thing. It works great. We're on our 3rd batch. Amazed at how quickly we had results! My husband has been suffering for years with non-healing rib fractures and within a day, the pain subsided significantly. He doesn't want to jinx it but, he thinks that this may change his life! I have had insomnia forever and I'm now sleeping like a rock. Recommending your company to all of my friends... D.E.G."

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 Tea has been used for health improvement for over 2000 years and is now being widely sold in health food in the USA, far less expensive to make it yourself.

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The FDA has found Kombucha Tea to be a safe beverage if it is prepared properly in a clean way so as not to become contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you prepare can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha because it is a fermented drink and as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

Nobody has died from drinking correctly made Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for over two millennium. 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 might be allergic to any number of different things. An allergic is usually just a reddening of the skin or a minor.

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

A Kombucha mushroom may develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common food molds are harmless but a contamination can ruin the taste of the tea. This minor problem can be easily prevented by keeping the brewing jar properly coveredKombucha is not known to counteract negatively with most all prescription medications.

There is nothing that is dangerous about this beneficial beverage; it is a delicious and safe beverage that can will improve health!
