About Kombucha

Kombucha is a effervescent tea-based drink that millions drink 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 several centuries of anecdotal accounts supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available commercially but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a spongy 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 slowly grows on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a whitish colored pancake.

Kombucha Tea safe?

Most ask this question because are aware that some fungi are toxic or they have been told misinformation about Kombucha. Kombucha is not a mushroom it is not toxic. 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, far less expensive to make it yourself.

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The F.D.A. has stated that this remarkable tea to be a safe drink provided it is correctly prepared in a clean manner so as not to be contaminated by pathogens. All foods that you make can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so 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 prepared Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage 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 could be sensitive to any number of things. An allergic 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 allowed to ferment longer and to a more sour state. Drinking Kombucha Tea wil not change the pH level of your blood unless you were to huge amounts of the tea when it is very sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking very large quantities of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

A Kombucha mushroom could develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common food molds are harmless but a contamination can spoil the taste of the tea. This limited problem can be easily prevented by keeping the fermenting tea properly covered and if it should occur is easily detected and you simple make a new batch of tea."]
