Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based drink that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the cost of such studies. There are several centuries of anecdotal accounts supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available commercially but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a solid 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 really a mushroom. It slowly grows on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of many):

Testimonial - Energy, PMS, Multiple Sclerosis: "I went to buy some kefir grains.. and found this kombucha there. I had never heard of it, and after doing some research on the internet I decided to try it. Well. I made the first batch and poured me a 4 oz. glass and started to drink it. I did that for 3 days and than I got soooo tired. I could barely keep my eyeballs open. On the fourth day I had more energy than ever. I had been having a terrible time with my monthly period and thought I was starting to transition into pre menopause. I was bleeding 14 days out of 28 and felt horrible before and during. I had back aches, cramps and 2 kinds of horrible stool, one coming in and one going out. It was so bad. I was suffering basically 3 to 3 1/2 weeks out of 4 with it. I wanted to keep my periods because as long as you can keep them going, you can take in calcium, the minute they stop, your bones are in trouble. Anyways. I was so happy with the energy I had gotten from the kombucha and never even thought about my period. On the 28th day on the dot, I started. Not a single pms symptom! No bloating, no loose stool no tar stool no cramps no back ache no irritability, no crying jag. It just started and I was back to my old self. I was heavy the first day, dwindled down the second and stopped on third day. As far as stool can look good.. mine does. I could NOT BE MORE EXCITED about this Kombucha. The mistake I WON"T make is to stop drinking it because I feel good. I intend to make this the rest of my life!

My son was diagnosed with MS. He started having muscle spasticity... 2 days into drinking it, his legs started to feel better.. 4 days later, his sensations came back in his already damaged hands and his legs were back to 100%. His psoriasis disappeared, his skin looked beautiful. He is also a believer in Kombucha now too. This stuff is literally a miracle!... P.M.E."

Is Kombucha safe?

Most ask this question because they have heard that some fungi are toxic or they have been misinformed 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 thousands of years it 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 F.D.A. has stated that Kombucha Tea to be a safe drink provided it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to become contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you make has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less for Kombucha as it is a fermented drink which as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

Nobody has ever died from drinking correctly prepared Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for over two millennium. It is safer than aspirin. There are 1000 aspirin related aspirin deaths yearly.

Kombucha Tea is a fermented beverage and , but some few people might be sensitive to any number of different things. A reaction is usually just a skin reddening or itch.

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit 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 drink very large quantities of the tea when it is sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking huge quantities of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

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