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

What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a delicious tea-based beverage that millions drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific data supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the cost of such medical studies. There are several centuries of anecdotal stories telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold commercially but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a spongy mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This produces the kombucha culture which is also referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not a true mushroom. It grows on the surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of numerous):

Testimonial - Cancer: "I use Kombucha and love it. Recently my 13 y/o Lab was diagnosed with a vicious cancer that started with a large tumor in her mouth. It was removed surgically but after the biopsy we were told she had less than a month to two months to live. I started her on the brew and it is now 5 months and she looks and acts better than she did before. We went for a followup last week and they took blood etc and did xrays since this type of cancer would have returned in her mouth but would have aggressively spread elsewhere. NO CANCER found in her blood or in the xrays of her body. Kombucha may not be a "fountain of youth" but we have been able to keep our Lady for who knows how much longer!... T.L."

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 poisonous. It is only "popularly" called a mushroom.

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

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The FDA has found this remarkable tea to be a safe beverage provided it is correctly prepared in a clean manner so as not to be contaminated by pathogens. All foods that you make can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha because it is a fermented beverage and as it ferments it makes a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

No person has died from drinking correctly 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 some few people might be sensitive to any number of things. An allergic is usually just a minor skin blush or itch.

The tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit 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 drink huge amounts of the tea when it is sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking large quantities of anything is usually not a good idea.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom may develop a mold but this is not common. Most common food molds are harmless but they can spoil the taste of the tea. This limited problem is easily prevented by keeping the fermenting tea properly coveredKombucha is not known to counteract negatively with most all prescribed medications.

There is nothing that is dangerous about this remarkable tea; it is a great tasting drink that can will improve your health!
