Question of the month; Does Kombucha Tea really improve health? Answer is...Yes! If it didn't improve health why have millions of people have kept drinking it and brewing it, for over two thousand years.

What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based drink that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific data supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the expense of such medical studies. There are several centuries of anecdotal stories telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold commercially but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a solid mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This forms the kombucha culture which is also referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not really a mushroom. It forms on the surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a near whitish colored pancake.

Kombucha Tea safe?

Most ask this question because are aware that some mushrooms are poisonous or they have been misinformed 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 for health improvement for thousands of years it is now being widely sold in health food 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 provided it is correctly prepared in a clean way so as not to be contaminated by pathogens. Any food that you make can become contaminated but the risk is probably less for Kombucha as it is a fermented beverage and as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

No person has ever died from drinking correctly prepared Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for over 2000 years. One thousand people a year die from taking aspirin, so which do you think is safer!

Kombucha Tea is a fermented beverage and , but some few people could be allergic to any number of different things. An allergic is usually just a minor skin blush or itch.

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than grapefruit juice or orange juice, unless it is allowed 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 be foolish to do, drinking very large amounts of anything is hardly a smart thing to do.

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

There is nothing that is naturally dangerous about this remarkable tea; it is a delicious and safe beverage that can help to improve health!
