Question of the week; Does Kombucha Tea really improve health? Answer is...Yes! If it didn't improve health why would millions of people have kept drinking it and preparing it, for over two thousand years.

Description of Kombucha

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

Testimonial (Just one of a large number):

Testimonial - Energy: "I must say, I am quite impressed with my brew. The mushroom that grew was thick and hardy. The taste was incredible. After several days of drinking it, my energy has returned... A.T."

Should I be worried about the safety of Kombucha?

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

Kombucha Tea has been used as a health remedy for over two millennium it is now being sold in food and health in the U.S., it is a lot cheaper to make it yourself.

Kombucha Tea is not a drug. The FDA has found this remarkable tea to be a safe drink if it is prepared properly in a clean way so as not to be contaminated by common food pathogens. Any food that you make can become contaminated but the risk is probably less for Kombucha because it is a fermented drink and as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol helping to protect it.

No person has ever died from drinking properly made Kombucha Tea and yet millions of people daily drink this remarkable beverage and have done so for over 2000 years. One thousand people a year die from taking aspirin, so which do you think is safer!

Kombucha Tea is a fermented drink and , but then again some few people may be allergic to any number of things. A reaction is usually just a reddening of the skin or itch.

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than grapefruit juice or orange juice, unless it is allowed to ferment too long then it becomes more acidic. Drinking Kombucha Tea wil not change the pH level of your blood unless you drink huge quantities of the tea when it is sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking huge amounts of anything is usually not a good idea.

A Kombucha mushroom may develop a mold but this is not likely. Most common food molds are not harmful but they can ruin the taste of the tea. This limited problem can be 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 amazing tea; it is a great tasting drink that can will improve your health!
