Question of the week; Does Kombucha really improve health? Answer is...It absolutely does! If it did not help to improve health why would millions of people keep drinking it and preparing it, for over two thousand years.

Description of Kombucha


Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based beverage that millions drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific information supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the cost of such medical studies. There are several centuries of popular stories supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold commercially but can easily be made at home by fermenting tea using a spongy mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This produces the kombucha culture which is also most often referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not a true mushroom. It grows 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 hundreds):

Testimonial - Constipation, Skin Tone: "I started drinking kombucha about a month ago when I was looking for an "energy drink" at the health food store. I didn't know what it was until a friend told me more about it when she saw me drinking it. Nobody had told me to expect this, but I noticed immediately that it took care of my constipation. Not to be gross or give too many details, but the constipation I get is more than an inconvenience. I normally only have a bowel movement about every 5 days, and that has led to some major problems. I've even had to have rectal surgery as a result of an infection I got (probably from passing hard stools). When I drink the kombucha, I have a bowel movement every day. About 5 days ago, we got back from a camping trip. I hadn't brought any kombucha with me and within 2-3 days of not having it, I had become constipated again and went 5-6 days without moving my bowels. When we got back, I started drinking the kombucha and immediately started having daily bowel movements again.

Another interesting thing that happened: a couple of weeks after I started drinking kombucha, my husband looked at me and said "You just get younger-looking every day." I certainly wasn't anticipating that! I didn't have any wrinkles or anything to start with, but now my skin has a youthful glow. ...

Is Kombucha safe?



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

Kombucha has been used as a health remedy for over two millennium it 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 stated that Kombucha Tea to be a safe beverage if it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you prepare can become contaminated 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 helping to protect it.

No person has died from drinking properly prepared 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 might be sensitive to any number of things. An allergic is usually just a reddening of the skin or a minor.

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit juice, unless it is permitted to ferment longer and to a more sour state. Drinking Kombucha Tea cannot change the pH level of your blood unless you drink huge amounts of the tea when it is very sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking large amounts of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

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