Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a delicious tea-based beverage that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific data supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the expense of such studies. There are many centuries of anecdotal accounts 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 referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not a true mushroom. It slowly grows on the surface of the fermenting tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of many):

Testimonial - Skin abberation: "I sent a culture of the tea to my mum in the UK. She has been using it for about a year. A friend of her husband had a growth on his nose and his Dr. said it had to be removed. On the suggestion of my mum, he put a small piece of the "shroom" on a band aid at night for about a week. It disappeared without leaving a mark! The chap was astonished! Thank you Kombucha America... P. C."

Is Kombucha safe?

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

Kombucha has been used for health improvement for over 2000 years and is now being sold in health shops and grocery stores in the USA, it is a lot cheaper to make it yourself.

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The FDA has found this remarkable tea to be a safe drink provided it is prepared properly in a clean way so as not to become contaminated by pathogens. Any food that you make can become contaminated but the risk is probably less for Kombucha as it is a fermented beverage and as it ferments it makes a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

No person has ever died from drinking properly prepared Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily and have done so for over 2000 years. It is safer than aspirin. There are 1000 aspirin related aspirin deaths yearly.

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

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit juice, unless it is allowed 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 quantities of the tea when it is sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking large quantities of anything is usually not a good idea.

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