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

Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based drink that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. 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 supporting 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 often popularly referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not really a mushroom. It slowly grows on the very surface of the tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and looks like a whitish colored pancake.

Kombucha Tea safe?

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 and it is not poisonous. It is only "popularly" called a mushroom.

Kombucha has been used for health improvement for over two millennium and is now being sold in food and health in the U.S., it is a lot cheaper 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 if it is correctly prepared in a clean way so as not to be contaminated by pathogens. All foods that you prepare can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha because it is a fermented drink and as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

Nobody has ever died from drinking correctly prepared Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily and have done so for over two millennium. It is safer than aspirin. There are 1000 aspirin related aspirin deaths yearly.

Kombucha Tea is a fermented drink and , but then again some few people might be sensitive to any number of different things. An allergic is usually just a reddening of the skin or itch.

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

A Kombucha mushroom might develop a mold but this is not common. Most common such molds are harmless but a contamination 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 prescription drugs.

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