Question of the month; Does Kombucha really improve health? 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 thousands of years.

Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based beverage that millions drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific information supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the expense of such medical studies. There are many centuries of anecdotal accounts telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available commercially but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a solid mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This produces the kombucha culture which is also referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not really a mushroom. It slowly forms on the surface of the tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of a large number):

Testimonial - Ebstein Barr Virus: "I was diagnosed with EBV and my mother hand delivered a Kombucha mushroom. I make it with oolong tea, and as long as I am on the tea, I have not had any further problems or episodes. It truly was and is my miracle... S.L.P."

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. People only call it a mushroom, it is not a mushroom.

Kombucha has been used as a health remedy for over two millennium and is now being widely sold in health food 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 found this remarkable tea to be a safe beverage provided it is correctly prepared in a clean way so as not to become contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you prepare can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha because it is a fermented drink and as it ferments it makes a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

No one has ever died from drinking properly prepared Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily 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 some few people could be sensitive to any number of different things. A reaction 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 too long then it becomes more acidic. 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 not be a smart thing to do, drinking large amounts of anything is hardly a smart thing to do.

A Kombucha mushroom could develop a mold but this is not common. Most common such molds are not harmful but a contamination can spoil the taste of the tea. This minor 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."]
