Question of the week; Does Kombucha really work? Answer is...Yes! If it didn't improve health why would millions of people keep drinking it and making it, for thousands of years.

What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a effervescent tea-based beverage that millions drink 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 many centuries of anecdotal accounts telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold 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 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 looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of hundreds):

Testimonial - Hormone Imbalance: "I have been drinking store bought Kombucha for a full month now, and looking for a way to make it. Thank you for your website! I will be making my order today for your starter. By the way, I read your disclaimer, and that is the best disclaimer I have ever read in my life! Especially near the bottom! Wish more businesses would be "real" people like yourselves! God bless you all! FYI Kombucha actually cured mine and my daughters hormone imbalances we have had for many years! After only 2 weeks for me. (I am 50-menopause) She is 20... M.L.P."

Kombucha Tea 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 toxic. It is only "popularly" called a mushroom.

Kombucha has been used for health improvement for over two millennium and is now being sold in health shops and grocery stores in the USA, far less expensive to make it yourself.

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The FDA has stated that Kombucha Tea to be a safe beverage provided it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you prepare can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha as it is a fermented drink and as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

No person has died from drinking properly prepared Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily 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 then again some few people could be sensitive to any number of things. A reaction 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 huge quantities of the tea when it is sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking huge quantities of anything is hardly a smart thing to do.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom may develop a mold but this is not common. Most common such molds are harmless but a contamination can ruin the taste of the tea. This minor problem is easily avoided by keeping the fermenting tea properly coveredKombucha is not known to counteract negatively with most all prescription drugs.

There is nothing that is inherently dangerous about this beneficial beverage; it is a great tasting drink that can help to improve your health!
