Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based beverage that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific data supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the expense of such studies. There are many 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 spongy 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 grows on the surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of numerous):

Testimonial - General Health: "This is my third purchase, first one for my family, then one for friends in two different states. Every purchase I've had a great experience, great customer service! Whenever I've started to get sick and drank the tea, I've never got sick enough to where I had to see a doctor. This is a first! I've never had to take another antibiotic since drinking Kombucha Tea and I thank God for this natural remedy! I'm a very skeptical person when it comes to something new, but KT has proven itself and I'm so thankful for Kombucha America selling this at a reasonable price and very well packaged! Thank you!... V.Y."

Kombucha Tea safe?

Most ask this question because they have heard that some fungi are toxic 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 has been used for health improvement for thousands of years it is now being widely sold in health food 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 FDA has found Kombucha Tea to be a safe beverage provided it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. All foods that you make has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha as it is a fermented beverage which as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

Nobody has ever died from drinking properly prepared Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for thousands of years. One thousand people a year die from taking aspirin, so which do you think is safer!

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

Kombucha 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 wil not change the pH level of your blood unless you were to large amounts of the tea when it is very sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking huge quantities of anything is hardly a smart thing to do.

A Kombucha mushroom may develop a mold but this is not common. Most common household food molds are harmless but they can ruin the taste of the tea. This small problem can be easily prevented by keeping the fermenting tea properly coveredKombucha is not known to counteract negatively with most all prescribed drugs.

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