Question of the month; Does Kombucha really work? Answer is...Yes! If it did not help to improve health why would millions of people keep drinking it and preparing it, for over 2000 years.

What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a delicious tea-based drink that many 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 studies. There are many centuries of anecdotal stories supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold in stores but can easily be made at home 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 grows on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of many):

Testimonial - Energy, Skin Health, Arthritic & Joint Pains: "The results I have gotten from drinking Kombucha continue to come. I have taken it for 3 months now. I have increased stamina, strength (at 56!) and I feel so vital. My skin seems to have tightened. This is evidenced by my tight lower arm. I can't wait to go back to teaching and use the board to write. No flabby underarms! What is most important is that I do not have the pain in my hip and joints. I single handedly put out a garden and am tending it. In just two hours I tilled 1/4 of an acre. The next morning I did not feel any pain in my back, wrists, or shoulders. It was amazing. Yesterday I redid our entire fish pond. This required moving some very large rocks. This morning I got up and felt no stiffness or pain. This stuff is amazing. I have introduced other family members to this. They are learning to keep the culture and make the tea presently. I also find that the support that is given by these people is very helpful and reliable... M.K."

Kombucha Tea safe?

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

Kombucha has been used for health improvement 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.

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The F.D.A. has stated that this remarkable tea to be a safe drink if it is correctly prepared in a clean manner so as not to become 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 drink and as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

No one has died from drinking properly prepared 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 beverage and , but some few people could be allergic to any number of things. An allergic is usually just a skin reddening 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 in which case it becomes more sour. Drinking Kombucha Tea wil not change the pH level of your blood unless you drink large quantities of the tea when it is 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 common. Most common household food molds are harmless but they can spoil the taste of the tea. This limited problem can be easily avoided by keeping the brewing jar properly covered and if it should occur is easily detected and you simple make a new batch of tea."]
