Question of the week; Does Kombucha really work? Answer is...It absolutely does! If it didn't improve health why have millions of people keep drinking it and making it, for over two thousand years.

What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based drink that millions drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. 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 accounts supporting 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" although it is not a true mushroom. It forms 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 many):

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. ... S.A."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

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

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

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The F.D.A. has found Kombucha Tea to be a safe drink if it is correctly prepared in a clean manner so as not to become contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you make can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha as it is a fermented drink and as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

No one has ever died from drinking properly made 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 drink and , but some few people could be sensitive to any number of different things. An allergic is usually just a skin reddening 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 very large amounts of the tea when it is sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking huge amounts of anything is usually not a good idea.

A Kombucha mushroom might develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common food molds are not harmful but they can spoil the taste of the tea. This limited problem can be easily avoided by keeping the fermenting tea properly coveredKombucha is not known to counteract negatively with most all prescription medications.

There is nothing that is inherently dangerous about this beneficial beverage; it is a delicious and safe beverage that can will improve health!
