Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based beverage that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the expense of such medical studies. There are several centuries of popular accounts 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 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 looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of numerous):

Testimonial - Energy: "I just finished my first week with Kombucha and right now I am in the process of starting the brew of my fourth batch. Let me tell you, I was skeptical of all the claims made about this elixir. The key word being was!! If nothing more, my energy level has increased dramatically this week, the tea is wonderful for that. My coffee comsumption has decreased by about half without me realizing it until my clerk at work asked me if she wasn't making it right for me anymore. All this in one week, I can't wait until it has been a month or more, so I can come back and tell you more of the benefits I am gaining from this!! (have my fingers crossed that my hair color will return to it's once beautiful red)... Thank you for introducing me to this wonder tea... M.E.A."

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