Question of the week; Does Kombucha really work? Answer is...Yes! If it didn't improve health why have millions of people have kept drinking it and making it, for over 2000 years.

What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based beverage that millions drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the cost of such medical studies. There are many centuries of popular accounts 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 produces the kombucha culture which is also most commonly referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not really a mushroom. It grows on the surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of hundreds):

Testimonial - IBS, Colitis, Chrons: "I just came across my previous testimonial from June 10, 2001 "I had Inflammatory Bowel Disease for ten years. I tried many alternatives... " Now it's June, , and I'm still symptom free. No doubt for me that Kombucha is effective against I.B.D.(Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's). Now I've learned more about the cause of I.B.D. and how Kombucha cures it. If you're interested, search for "Mycobacterium Avium Tuberculosis. Short version: it causes I.B.D. and Kombucha kills it. Not Kombucha pills or Kombucha tea bags, but authentic, fermented Kombucha tea... B.P."

Kombucha Tea 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 and it is not poisonous. It is only "popularly" called a mushroom.

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

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The FDA has stated that Kombucha Tea to be a safe drink if it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to become contaminated by pathogens. All foods that you prepare has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less for Kombucha as it is a fermented drink and as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

Nobody has ever died from drinking properly prepared Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily 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 drink and , but some few people could be sensitive to any number of different things. An allergic is usually just a skin reddening 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 be foolish to do, drinking huge quantities of anything is usually not a good idea.

A Kombucha mushroom could develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common food molds are harmless but they can spoil the taste of the tea. This limited problem is 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."]
