Question of the month; Does Kombucha really improve health? Answer is...It absolutely does! If it didn't improve health why would millions of people keep drinking it and preparing it, for over 2000 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 info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the cost of such studies. There are many centuries of anecdotal stories telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available 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 often popularly referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not a true mushroom. It grows on the surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of a large number):

Testimonial - Hair Growth, Energy: "A few years back, at the age of 18, I had lost 50% of my hair in a period of one month! The doctor advised me to eat more meat, but I didn't because I wasn't a big meat-eater. Instead I went to the health food store and asked what to do. I was told to drink even 3-4oz of kombucha tea every morning on an empty stomach. I did, and within the first few months found that my hair was sprouting up like grass. Literally. I am sure this is what did it. It was the most dramatic result I had ever seen. Both my husband and I are drinking it, and my friends too. It also increases energy level... S.L."
