What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a delicious tea-based beverage that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific data supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the expense of such studies. There are many centuries of anecdotal stories telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold 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 a true mushroom. It slowly grows on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of dozens and dozens):

Testimonial - Vitality, Hair, Skin, Digestion: "OK. First let me tell you that I'm very grateful for your willingness to talk on the phone. When I first started the culture with the cultures you sent I wasn't expecting the variety of life forms I was going to see in the fermented tea, so I called you somehow startled and described what was going on. You very gently explained that everything was ok ... and it was!

I just can't believe it was barely over one year ago that I started kombucha, it seems to me that I've been drinking it for my whole life, which shows that I am planning to drink it for the rest of my life.

The benefits frankly cannot be described properly. It's a general well being, a recovering of the vital strength (last year, 6 months before starting kombucha I underwent a severe surgical operation and was in a state of exhaustion). It is the sudden and quick stopping of my hair loss that had been prompted by the operation and all the ensuing stress. My hair is beautiful. My skin is strong and nice. At 62 my joints are just fine, thank you. I have a better digestion. But all of this doesn't describe this feeling I have, that I owe kombucha my life. It sounds exaggerated, but I do know how I felt and how I feel.

I drink kombucha with and or after lunch and dinner. And whenever it pleases me because it's just delightful, its sweet-sour taste. Half a tall glass is more than enough twice daily... R.M."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

Most ask this question because they have heard that some fungi are poisonous 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 Tea has been used as a health remedy for over two millennium it is now being sold in health shops and grocery stores 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 be contaminated by common food pathogens. All foods that you make can become contaminated but the risk is probably less for Kombucha because it is a fermented drink and as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

Nobody has ever died from drinking properly prepared Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for over two millennium. 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 may be allergic to any number of things. An allergic is usually just a skin reddening or a minor.

The tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit juice, unless it is permitted to ferment too long then it becomes more acidic. Drinking Kombucha Tea cannot change the pH level of your blood unless you were to huge quantities of the tea when it is sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking large quantities of anything is hardly a smart thing to do.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom could develop a mold but this is not common. Most common food molds are harmless but they can spoil the taste of the tea. This minor problem can be easily avoided by keeping the fermenting tea properly coveredKombucha is not known to counteract negatively with most all prescribed drugs.

There is nothing that is naturally dangerous about this remarkable tea; it is a delicious and safe beverage that can will improve health!
