Question of the day; Does Kombucha really improve health? Answer is...It absolutely does! If it didn't improve health why would millions of people keep drinking it and preparing it, for over 2000 years.

What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a delicious tea-based beverage that many 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 expense 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 solid mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This produces the kombucha culture which is also most commonly referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not a true mushroom. It forms on the surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of hundreds):

Testimonial - Chronic Fatigue: "I first heard about Kombucha tea because my aunt in France was using it as a refreshing, energizing drink. At the end of last summer, I was at a point in my chiropractic sudies where I had to go through a series of national board exams that required many days of intense studying. I was desperatly looking for an affordable way to fight my chronic lack of energy and fatigue. I thought about growing Kombucha tea and went on the internet to see if I could order a culture. I found the Kombucha America site and was able to start growing my own "mushroom" very easily and very quickly. I started to drink the tea and was amazed to see how refreshing it was. It certainly gave me lots of energy and made me go trhought all my exams with great success. I also noticed that my immune system was boosted because I did not get sick during the fall when everybody else was down with the flu. Also, when I went to India after drinking the tea for a month or two, I did not get any digestion problem (I was also very careful with what I was eating) while the other people in the group that ate the same food almost all got sick at some point during the trip. So I guess that, drinking the tea, for me, along with having a healthy life style including chiropractic care, was a definite health enhencer and a general way to prevent the occurence of disease... F.N."

Is Kombucha safe?

Most ask this question because they know that some mushrooms are toxic or they have been told misinformation about Kombucha. Kombucha is not a mushroom it is not toxic. People only call it a mushroom, it is not a mushroom.

Kombucha Tea has been used as a health remedy for over two millennium and is now being sold in food and health in the U.S., 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 this remarkable tea to be a safe drink provided it is correctly prepared in a clean way so as not to become contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you make has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less for Kombucha because it is a fermented beverage which as it ferments it makes a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

Nobody has died from drinking properly made Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage 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 some few people may be allergic to any number of different things. An allergic 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 permitted to ferment longer and to a more sour state. Drinking Kombucha Tea wil not 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 very large quantities of anything is hardly a smart thing to do.

A Kombucha mushroom could develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common food molds are harmless but they can spoil the taste of the tea. This limited problem is 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 naturally dangerous about this remarkable tea; it is a great tasting drink that can will improve health!
