Question of the week; Does Kombucha really work? Answer is...Absolutely yes! If it didn't improve health why have millions of people keep drinking it and brewing it, for over 2000 years.

Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based drink that is often drunk 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 cost of such medical studies. There are several centuries of popular accounts supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available 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 often referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not really a mushroom. It grows on the very surface of the tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and resembles a whitish colored pancake.

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 toxic. It is only "popularly" called a mushroom.

Kombucha Tea has been used as a health remedy for over 2000 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 FDA has stated that this remarkable tea to be a safe beverage if it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. All foods that you prepare 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 which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

Nobody has ever died from drinking correctly prepared Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for over 2000 years. One thousand people a year die from taking aspirin, so which do you think is safer!

Kombucha Tea is a fermented beverage and , but some few people may be allergic to any number of things. An allergic is usually just a reddening of the skin or a minor.

The tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit 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 very sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking very large quantities of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

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