Description of Kombucha


Kombucha is a delicious tea-based beverage that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific info 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 stories telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold 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 often popularly referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not really a mushroom. It slowly grows on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of many):

Testimonial - Chronic Fatigue: "I first heard about Kombucha tea because my aunt in France was using it as a refreshing, energizing drink. At the end of last summer, I was at a point in my chiropractic sudies where I had to go through a series of national board exams that required many days of intense studying. I was desperatly looking for an affordable way to fight my chronic lack of energy and fatigue. I thought about growing Kombucha tea and went on the internet to see if I could order a culture. I found the Kombucha America site and was able to start growing my own "mushroom" very easily and very quickly. I started to drink the tea and was amazed to see how refreshing it was. It certainly gave me lots of energy and made me go trhought all my exams with great success. I also noticed that my immune system was boosted because I did not get sick during the fall when everybody else was down with the flu. Also, when I went to India after drinking the tea for a month or two, I did not get any digestion problem (I was also very careful with what I was eating) while the other people in the group that ate the same food almost all got sick at some point during the trip. So I guess that, drinking the tea, for me, along with having a healthy life style including chiropractic care, was a definite health enhencer and a general way to prevent the occurence of disease... F.N."

Kombucha Tea safe?



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

Kombucha 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 found Kombucha Tea to be a safe drink provided it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. All foods that you make can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha as it is a fermented beverage which as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

No one has ever died from drinking properly made 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 drink and , but some few people may be allergic to any number of different things. A reaction is usually just a reddening of the skin or itch.

The tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit juice, unless it is allowed to ferment too long then it becomes more acidic. Drinking Kombucha Tea wil not change the pH level of your blood unless you drink very large quantities of the tea when it is very sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking huge amounts of anything is usually not a good idea.

A Kombucha mushroom may develop a mold but this is not common. Most common such molds are not harmful but a contamination can ruin the taste of the tea. This limited problem is 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."]
