Question of the month; Does Kombucha Tea really work? Answer is...It absolutely does! If it did not help to improve health why have millions of people keep drinking it and brewing it, for thousands of years.

Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a delicious tea-based drink that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific information supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the cost of such studies. There are many centuries of anecdotal accounts telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold in stores 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" but it is not really a mushroom. It forms on the very surface of the tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and resembles a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of numerous):

Testimonial - Quality: "I have been brewing KT for a few months. My supply grew mold so I had to start over with a new culture. I ordered 4 from Kombucha America. When I used the cultures to brew KT the results were great!! None of my other brews, from mushrooms I had ordered from other sites, could compare with the great taste and effervesense of my new brew. It tastes delicious!! The scobies that I have grown are very solid and much thicker than ones I grew before. I am very pleased with my order and thank you for a great product... C.M.S."

Is Kombucha safe?

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

Kombucha has been used as a health remedy for over two millennium it is now being sold in food and health in the U.S., it is a lot cheaper to make it yourself.

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The F.D.A. has stated that this remarkable tea to be a safe beverage provided it is prepared properly in a clean manner so as not to become contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you prepare has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha because it is a fermented beverage and as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

No person has ever died from drinking correctly prepared Kombucha Tea and millions drink the tea daily and have done so for over 2000 years. It is safer than aspirin. There are 1000 aspirin related aspirin deaths yearly.

Kombucha Tea is a fermented beverage and , but then again some few people might be sensitive to any number of different things. A reaction is usually just a skin reddening or a minor.

The tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit 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 drink very large quantities of the tea when it is very sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking very large 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 minor problem can be easily avoided by keeping the brewing jar properly coveredKombucha is not known to counteract negatively with most prescribed drugs.

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