Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a effervescent 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 expense of such studies. There are several centuries of anecdotal accounts telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold commercially 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 commonly referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not really a mushroom. It forms on the surface of the fermenting tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and resembles a near whitish colored pancake.

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The F.D.A. has stated that this remarkable tea to be a safe beverage provided it is correctly prepared in a clean way so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens.

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

The tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit juice, unless it is permitted to ferment too long in which case it becomes more sour. Drinking Kombucha Tea wil not change the pH level of your blood unless you drink huge amounts of the tea when it is sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking very large amounts of anything is usually not a good idea.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom could develop a mold but this is not common. Most common food molds are harmless but a contamination can ruin the taste of the tea. This small 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."]
