About Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based drink that is often drunk 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 popular stories supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available in stores but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a solid mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This forms the kombucha culture which is also most commonly referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not a true mushroom. It slowly forms on the surface of the fermenting 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 - Energy: "I LOVE kombucha!! I brewed my first batch successfully last week! My second batch should be done tomorrow.

He drank kombucha for a week and he now has no pain, even with bad weather coming! I love this stuff. Thank you so much for all your help and information! It is really not as hard as people make it out to be! ... B.L.M."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

Most ask this question because they know that some fungi are toxic or they have been told misinformation about Kombucha. Kombucha is not a mushroom and it is not toxic. People only call it a mushroom, it is not 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., it is a lot cheaper to make it yourself.

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The F.D.A. has stated that Kombucha Tea to be a safe drink provided it is correctly prepared in a clean manner so as not to be contaminated by pathogens. Any food that you prepare has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha because it is a fermented beverage which as it ferments it makes a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

No one has died from drinking correctly prepared Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily and have done so for thousands of 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. A reaction is usually just a reddening of the skin or a minor.

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than grapefruit juice or orange juice, unless it is permitted to ferment too long to a more sour condition. Drinking Kombucha Tea cannot change the pH level of your blood unless you drink huge quantities of the tea when it is sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking huge quantities of anything is usually not a good idea.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom might develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common such molds are not harmful but they can spoil the taste of the tea. This small problem can be easily prevented by keeping the brewing jar properly covered and if it should occur is easily detected and you simple make a new batch of tea."]
