What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based beverage that millions drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the expense of such studies. There are many centuries of popular 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 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 many):

Testimonial - Fibromyalgia, Pain Relief, Energy, Sleep, Hot Flashes, Skin Tone: "I ordered my cultures late in March and have been drinking the tea since early April. Right away, I noticed that my fibromyalgia was not as bad, and that my arthritis was also less bothersome. After three months I can say that it has helped my pain level greatly, my skin is softer, my nails are smooth and have about lost the linear ridges that were in them. My energy level is way up, and I sleep like a log. I have lost 6 pounds without really trying, and, I think it is regulating my hormones. I have not had a hot flash since I started drinking the tea, and the stiff hairs that were growing on my chin are much fewer. Shoot, when I die, bury me with a gallon of this stuff. I want to pass it around to my new friends in heaven. :-) ... S.L."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

Most ask this question because they have heard that some mushrooms are poisonous or they have been misinformed 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 two millennium and is now being widely sold in health food in the U.S., far less expensive to make it yourself.

The tea does improve health but it is not a drug. The F.D.A. has found Kombucha Tea to be a safe beverage provided it is prepared properly in a clean way so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. All foods that you prepare can become contaminated but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha as it is a fermented beverage which as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

No one has died from drinking properly made Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for thousands of years. 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 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 grapefruit juice or orange juice, unless it is permitted to ferment longer and to a more sour state. Drinking Kombucha Tea cannot change the pH level of your blood unless you drink large amounts of the tea when it is sour, this would be foolish to do, drinking huge amounts of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

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 small problem is easily avoided by keeping the fermenting tea properly coveredKombucha is not known to counteract negatively with most all prescription drugs.

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