About Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based drink 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 cost of such medical studies. There are several centuries of anecdotal stories supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available commercially but can easily be made at home by fermenting tea using a spongy 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 looks like a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of numerous):

Testimonial - Energy, Skin Health, Arthritic & Joint Pains: "The results I have gotten from drinking Kombucha continue to come. I have taken it for 3 months now. I have increased stamina, strength (at 56!) and I feel so vital. My skin seems to have tightened. This is evidenced by my tight lower arm. I can't wait to go back to teaching and use the board to write. No flabby underarms! What is most important is that I do not have the pain in my hip and joints. I single handedly put out a garden and am tending it. In just two hours I tilled 1/4 of an acre. The next morning I did not feel any pain in my back, wrists, or shoulders. It was amazing. Yesterday I redid our entire fish pond. This required moving some very large rocks. This morning I got up and felt no stiffness or pain. This stuff is amazing. I have introduced other family members to this. They are learning to keep the culture and make the tea presently. I also find that the support that is given by these people is very helpful and reliable... M.K."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

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

Kombucha has been used as a health remedy for over 2000 years it is now being widely sold in health food in the U.S., it is a lot cheaper to make it yourself.

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The FDA has found Kombucha Tea to be a safe beverage provided 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 as it is a fermented drink and as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

Nobody has died from drinking properly made 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 may be sensitive to any number of things. A reaction is usually just a minor skin blush or a minor.

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than grapefruit juice or orange juice, unless it is permitted to ferment longer and to a more sour state. Drinking Kombucha Tea wil not change the pH level of your blood unless you were to very large amounts of the tea when it is sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking huge quantities of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom might develop a mold but this is not common. Most common household food molds are harmless but a contamination can spoil the taste of the tea. This minor problem can be 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."]
