What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based drink that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. 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 accounts telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available commercially but can easily be made at home 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" but it is not a true mushroom. It grows 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 hundreds):

Testimonial - Bursitis, Energy: "My BURSITIS in my shoulder was so bad I was considering getting the shot for it. I did not have health insurance and this was an expensive (and painful) option. So I ordered the Kombucha cultures and began making my own tea. The first week that I drank my new tea I thought the painful symptoms of my bursitis were going away. Now (after 3 months) I am SURE of it! I can't say I am 100% cured... only about 95%. The difference is amazing! In two months when my insurance kicks in, I will NOT be getting a shot! The other interesting thing is that I take a glass of Kombucha to work with me to drink during my lunch break, I now have more energy to get thru the rest of the day. Thank you Kombucha America!... G.C."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

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

Kombucha Tea has been used as a health remedy for thousands of years and 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 F.D.A. has stated that Kombucha Tea to be a safe beverage provided it is correctly prepared in a clean manner so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you prepare can become contaminated but the risk is probably less for Kombucha because it is a fermented drink which as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

No person has died from drinking correctly made Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for over two millennium. It is safer than aspirin. There are 1000 aspirin related aspirin deaths yearly.

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

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit juice, unless it is allowed to ferment too long to a more sour condition. Drinking Kombucha Tea cannot 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 amounts of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

A Kombucha mushroom could develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common household food molds are not harmful but they can spoil the taste of the tea. This small problem can be easily avoided by keeping the brewing jar properly coveredKombucha is not known to counteract negatively with most prescribed medications.

There is nothing that is dangerous about this remarkable tea; it is a great tasting drink that can can improve health!
