Question of the week; Does Kombucha Tea 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 effervescent tea-based drink that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific information supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the cost of such medical studies. There are several centuries of popular stories telling of 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 most often referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not a true mushroom. It grows on the very surface of the tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of dozens and dozens):

Testimonial - Prostate, Costs: "I am so greatful for your help in getting me started in this new habit.
