About Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based drink that millions drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the expense of such medical studies. There are several centuries of popular 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 solid mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This produces the kombucha culture which is also often popularly referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not a true mushroom. It slowly grows on the surface of the fermenting tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of hundreds):

Testimonial - Mercury Detoxification: "I just returned from a trip to Costa Rica where I had my first drink of kombucha tea. I actually had three glasses within 5 days. When I came home I no longer had the mecury toxicity that I had before my trip. I am convinced the tea cleared it from my system. I had been taking lots of detox pills from my naturopath but after three months I was making little progress. The 3 glasses of kombucha zipped right through me and eliminated all of the mercury from my system... H.F.H."

Kombucha Tea safe?

Most ask this question because they have heard 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 for health improvement for over 2000 years and is now being sold in health shops and grocery stores in the USA, far less expensive to make it yourself.

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The F.D.A. has stated that Kombucha Tea to be a safe beverage provided it is prepared properly in a clean way so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. All foods that you make has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less for Kombucha as it is a fermented drink and as it ferments it makes a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

Nobody has died from drinking correctly made Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily and have done so for thousands of years. It is safer than aspirin. There are 1000 aspirin related aspirin deaths yearly.

Kombucha Tea is a fermented beverage and , but then again some few people could be allergic to any number of things. A reaction is usually just a skin reddening or a minor.

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

A Kombucha mushroom may develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common food molds are not harmful but they can spoil the taste of the tea. This small problem is 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."]
