About Kombucha


Kombucha is a effervescent tea-based drink that millions drink 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 expense of such studies. There are several centuries of anecdotal stories 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" although it is not a true mushroom. It forms on the surface of the fermenting tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of many):

Testimonial - General Health, Skin Health: "I discovered kombucha about 10 years ago. I was 6ft, 150 lbs, coffee drinkin smoker. after drinking kombucha for a couple of weeks I quit drinking coffee. 2 months after I quit smoking. I drank kombucha for about 6 months and gained 30 lbs of healthy body mass. For a while I was drinking a pint a day. I craved it so much. as my health improved the craving for it deminished and I lost interest in the sunday tea making ritual. Now I find myself craving it again. I have been trying to find a new source for a while and came across this site. It is great to see something like this available. If kombucha isn't the turning water into wine story then I dont know what is. I discovered that the strongest tea is a great cold sore remedy, and that an old kombucha whipped up in the blender makes the greatest hand and body lotion. One aplication will give 2 to 3 days of dry skin relief. and its free..!!! No wonder doctors or pharmacutical companies won't even look at it. Well that is my 2 cents worth. Time to order a new baby and find the old pickle bottles. I can taste it now :) ...

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?



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

Kombucha Tea has been used as a health remedy for over 2000 years it is now being widely sold in health food in the USA, it is a lot cheaper to make it yourself.

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The FDA has found this remarkable tea to be a safe beverage provided it is correctly prepared in a clean way so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you prepare has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less for Kombucha as it is a fermented drink which as it ferments it makes a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

No one has ever died from drinking correctly made Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage 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 could be allergic to any number of different things. A reaction is usually just a minor skin blush or a minor.

Kombucha 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 were to huge quantities of the tea when it is sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking large amounts of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

Rarely A Kombucha mushroom may develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common such molds are not harmful but a contamination can ruin the taste of the tea. This minor problem is easily avoided by keeping the fermenting tea properly covered and if it should occur is easily detected and you simple make a new batch of tea."]
