About Kombucha

Kombucha is a effervescent tea-based drink that is often drunk 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 studies. There are many centuries of popular stories telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available commercially 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" but it is not really a mushroom. It forms on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of dozens and dozens):

Testimonial - Skin Rash, Nails, Colds/Flu: "I started drinking kombucha about 8 months ago. I had a rash on the inside of my palms that I had been seeing a chiropractor/NAET specialist for. She had helped me with other allergic rashes but this one kept coming back. She thought it was emotional. A few days after I started drinking it, the rash went away and never came back. I had also got a routine blood test taken right before I started drinking the tea. Nothing was said of my results until I saw the dr. about a month later and she said that my liver counts were high and asked me to get another blood test. That one came out normal and although it could be coincidence, I think it was because of the tea. I never did lose any weight because of it but I noticed my fingernails are stronger and prettier than they've ever been. I also went through the whole winter season with one cold/fever for about a week when I usually get the stomach flu and a few colds every year. ... L.M.B."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

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

Kombucha has been used as a health remedy for over 2000 years it is now being sold in food and health in the USA, far less expensive to make it yourself.

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The F.D.A. has stated that this remarkable tea to be a safe drink provided it is correctly prepared in a clean way so as not to become contaminated by pathogens. Any food that you prepare can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha as it is a fermented beverage which as it ferments it makes a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

No person has ever died from drinking properly prepared Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily and have done so for over two millennium. 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. An allergic is usually just a minor skin blush or itch.

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

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom could develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common household food molds are not harmful but they can ruin the taste of the tea. This limited problem can be easily prevented by keeping the brewing jar properly coveredKombucha is not known to counteract negatively with most all prescription medications.

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