Question of the month; Does Kombucha Tea really work? Answer is...Yes! If it didn't improve health why have millions of people keep drinking it and preparing it, for thousands of years.

What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based drink 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 several centuries of anecdotal accounts supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available 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 referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not a true mushroom. It grows on the surface of the tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and resembles a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of dozens and dozens):

Testimonial - Multiple Sclorosis, Energy, Sleep: "I'm am just writing to let you know that I have been drinking the tea now for one week. I have Multiple Sclorosis. Having to take a shot everyday has been painful. I haven't had a shot in a week since drinking the tea. I had been wanting to take a break but my body kept telling me that it wasn't ready. Since I have been drinking the tea I'm in a better mood, I have more energy, and best of all I have been able to sleep at night. I will definately let you know how I am doing as the weeks go on. By me drinking this tea hopefully I will get a little bit of my life back. I hate being so sore that my kids can't hug me... A.M.G."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

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

Kombucha has been used as a health remedy for over 2000 years it is now being widely sold in health food in the USA, it is a lot cheaper to make it yourself.

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The FDA has stated that Kombucha Tea to be a safe drink if it is prepared properly in a clean way so as not to become contaminated by pathogens. All foods that you prepare can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha because it is a fermented beverage which as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

No person has ever died from drinking properly made Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily 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 then again some few people might be allergic to any number of things. An allergic is usually just a minor skin blush or itch.

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than grapefruit juice or orange juice, unless it is permitted to ferment too long in which case it becomes more sour. Drinking Kombucha Tea wil not change the pH level of your blood unless you were to large amounts of the tea when it is very sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking large amounts of anything is hardly a smart thing to do.

A Kombucha mushroom may develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common household food molds are not harmful but a contamination can ruin 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."]
