Question of the week; Does Kombucha Tea really improve health? Answer is...It absolutely does! If it did not help to improve health why would millions of people have kept drinking it and making it, for over 2000 years.

Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based beverage that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific information supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies are being conducted mainly due to the expense of such medical studies. There are many centuries of popular stories supporting health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold in stores but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a spongy mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This produces the kombucha culture which is also most commonly referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not really a mushroom. It forms on the surface of the tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and resembles a near whitish colored pancake.

Me and my family who had been drinking Kombucha we were very strong than any body else people were asking as the secret. So many people were dying on the road because of hunger us were strong like stone. when others are eating uneatable and poisonous food in order to survive, we were just watching them. What was the secret? the Kombucha product we had been drinking every day for more than 1 year before the war started in Rwanda. Now i find it again ohoooooo!!! My Good Lord i am going to tell whoever i know and willing to stay strong and healthy. Thank you!!!

Is Kombucha safe?

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

Kombucha has been used for health improvement for thousands of years it is now being sold in food and health in the U.S., it is a lot cheaper 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 drink if it is correctly prepared in a clean way so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you make has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha as it is a fermented drink which as it ferments it produces a small amount of alcohol which protects the tea from obnoxious pathogens.

No one has ever 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. One thousand people a year die from taking aspirin, so which do you think is safer!

Kombucha Tea is a fermented beverage and , but some few people might be allergic 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 allowed to ferment too long in which case it becomes more sour. Drinking Kombucha Tea wil not change the pH level of your blood unless you were to large 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.

A Kombucha mushroom might develop a mold but this is not common. Most common such molds are not harmful but a contamination can spoil the taste of the tea. This limited problem can be 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."]
