Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based drink that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific data supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the cost of such medical studies. There are many centuries of anecdotal stories supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available in stores but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a spongy 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 grows on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of a large number):

Testimonial - Energy, PMS, Multiple Sclerosis: "I went to buy some kefir grains.. and found this kombucha there. I had never heard of it, and after doing some research on the internet I decided to try it. Well. I made the first batch and poured me a 4 oz. glass and started to drink it. I did that for 3 days and than I got soooo tired. I could barely keep my eyeballs open. On the fourth day I had more energy than ever. I had been having a terrible time with my monthly period and thought I was starting to transition into pre menopause. I was bleeding 14 days out of 28 and felt horrible before and during. I had back aches, cramps and 2 kinds of horrible stool, one coming in and one going out. It was so bad. I was suffering basically 3 to 3 1/2 weeks out of 4 with it. I wanted to keep my periods because as long as you can keep them going, you can take in calcium, the minute they stop, your bones are in trouble. Anyways. I was so happy with the energy I had gotten from the kombucha and never even thought about my period. On the 28th day on the dot, I started. Not a single pms symptom! No bloating, no loose stool no tar stool no cramps no back ache no irritability, no crying jag. It just started and I was back to my old self. I was heavy the first day, dwindled down the second and stopped on third day. As far as stool can look good.. mine does. I could NOT BE MORE EXCITED about this Kombucha. The mistake I WON"T make is to stop drinking it because I feel good. I intend to make this the rest of my life!

My son was diagnosed with MS. He started having muscle spasticity... 2 days into drinking it, his legs started to feel better.. 4 days later, his sensations came back in his already damaged hands and his legs were back to 100%. His psoriasis disappeared, his skin looked beautiful. He is also a believer in Kombucha now too. This stuff is literally a miracle!... P.M.E."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

Most ask this question because are aware that some mushrooms are toxic 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 for health improvement for over two millennium 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 FDA has found Kombucha Tea to be a safe beverage if it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to become contaminated by common food 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 makes a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

No one has ever died from drinking correctly made 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 could be allergic to any number of things. An allergic is usually just a minor skin blush 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 cannot change the pH level of your blood unless you were to large quantities of the tea when it is very sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking huge quantities of anything is hardly a smart thing to do.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom might develop a mold but this is not common. Most common food molds are not harmful but a contamination can ruin the taste of the tea. This small problem is 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."]
