What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based beverage that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the expense of such studies. There are many 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 forms the kombucha culture which is also often popularly referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not a true mushroom. It slowly forms on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of numerous):

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."

Is Kombucha safe?

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

Kombucha has been used for health improvement for thousands of years it is now being sold in food and health in the USA, it is a lot cheaper to make it yourself.

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The FDA has found Kombucha Tea to be a safe beverage if it is correctly prepared in a clean way so as not to become contaminated by pathogens. All foods that you prepare has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less for Kombucha as it is a fermented beverage and as it ferments it makes a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

No one has 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 drink and , but then again some few people may be allergic to any number of different things. A reaction is usually just a skin reddening or a minor.

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

A Kombucha mushroom could develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common such molds are harmless but a contamination can spoil the taste of the tea. This small problem is easily prevented by keeping the fermenting tea properly coveredKombucha is not known to counteract negatively with most prescribed drugs.

There is nothing that is dangerous about this amazing tea; it is a great tasting drink that can can improve your health!
