About Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based drink that is often drunk 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 studies. There are many centuries of popular stories telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available commercially but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a spongy mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This forms the kombucha culture which is also most often referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not a true mushroom. It slowly forms on the surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of a large number):

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 are aware that some fungi are toxic 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 Tea has been used for health improvement for over two millennium it is now being sold in food and health in the U.S., far less expensive to make it yourself.

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

Nobody has died from drinking properly prepared Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily and have done so for thousands of years. It is safer than aspirin. There are 1000 aspirin related aspirin deaths yearly.

Kombucha Tea is a fermented drink and , but then again some few people may be allergic to any number of different things. A reaction is usually just a reddening of the skin or itch.

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

A Kombucha mushroom might develop a mold but this is not common. Most common food molds are not harmful but they can ruin the taste of the tea. This limited problem can be easily avoided by keeping the fermenting tea properly covered and if it should occur is easily detected and you simple make a new batch of tea."]
