Question of the week; Does Kombucha Tea really work? Answer is...It absolutely does! If it did not help to improve health why would millions of people keep drinking it and brewing it, for over two thousand years.

What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a effervescent tea-based beverage that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific information 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 stories supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold 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 really a mushroom. It grows on the surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of dozens and dozens):

Testimonial - Skin, Hair, Service: "I made and drank Kombucha religiously for 3 years and know from experience that the health benefits are phenomonal. The difference in skin and hair are amazing. When we moved to our new home my Kombucha was accidently destroyed. I had tried in vain to find another starter, but everyone I had given one to, and the person who gave me my initial starter, had gotten tired of the brewing process and let their's die. Ironically they had realized the difference and were also looking for a new starter. Last year after finaly venturing into Internet-land I decided to check for Kombucha and found this site. I ordered a starter and have had my wonderful Kombucha tea ever since. This site is wonderful, orders are quickly delivered with much care in the packaging, the Kombucha is authentic not scrap or scam and recently I had reason to call for help with a minor Kombucha problem and the gentleman I spoke with was polite and courteous. He took his time and helped me with my problem step by step. In other words his services are just wonderful. If anyone has any doubts about Kombucha it's great and so is this site and company. I would advise anyone to go Kombucha America and get their starter from this company... K.D."

Kombucha Tea safe?

Most ask this question because they know that some fungi are poisonous or they have been told misinformation about Kombucha. Kombucha is not a mushroom it is not toxic. It is only "popularly" called a mushroom.

Kombucha Tea has been used as a health remedy for over two millennium and is now being sold in health shops and grocery stores in the USA, 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 if 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 so for Kombucha because it is a fermented beverage and as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

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. 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 allergic to any number of different things. An allergic is usually just a skin reddening or itch.

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than grapefruit juice or orange 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 were to huge quantities of the tea when it is very sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking huge amounts of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

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