Question of the month; Does Kombucha really improve health? Answer is...Absolutely yes! If it did not help to improve health why have millions of people have kept drinking it and making it, for over 2000 years.

Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a effervescent tea-based beverage that many drink 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 expense of such studies. There are many centuries of popular stories supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available in stores 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 commonly referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not a true mushroom. It forms on the very 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 dozens and dozens):

Testimonial - Multiple Sclerosis (MS): "I am very much excited about getting "on" the tea again. I was using it for 2 years before my culture became contaminated after moving to our new home. Doctors had a hard time diagnosing my M.S. because Kombucha took away many symptoms. I am going to keep one for myself and get another "M.S." friend started. Can't wait!... G.W."

Kombucha Tea safe?

Most ask this question because are aware that some fungi are poisonous or they have been told misinformation about Kombucha. Kombucha is not a mushroom and it is not poisonous. People only call it a mushroom, it is not a mushroom.

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

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The FDA has found Kombucha Tea to be a safe drink if it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you make can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha as it is a fermented drink which as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

No person has died from drinking properly made Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for thousands of years. 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 could be sensitive to any number of different things. An allergic is usually just a skin reddening or itch.

The tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit juice, unless it is allowed to ferment too long then it becomes more acidic. 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 be foolish to do, drinking very large amounts of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom could develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common food molds are not harmful but they can ruin the taste of the tea. This limited problem is easily prevented by keeping the brewing jar properly coveredKombucha is not known to counteract negatively with most prescribed medications.

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