About Kombucha

Kombucha is a effervescent tea-based drink that is often drunk 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 medical studies. There are several centuries of popular stories telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold in stores but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a solid 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 during the period of time the tea is fermenting and looks like a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of hundreds):

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

Most ask this question because they have heard that some fungi are toxic 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 thousands of years and is now being sold in food and health in the U.S., far less expensive to make it yourself.

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The FDA has stated that this remarkable tea to be a safe beverage if it is prepared properly in a clean way so as not to become contaminated by common food pathogens. All foods that you make has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less for Kombucha because it is a fermented beverage and as it ferments it makes a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

No person has died from drinking correctly prepared Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily 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 drink and , but then again some few people might be sensitive to any number of different things. An allergic is usually just a skin reddening or a minor.

The tea is acidic but no more so than grapefruit juice or orange 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 sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking very large quantities of anything is usually not a good idea.

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