Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a effervescent tea-based drink that many drink for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the expense of such medical studies. There are many centuries of popular accounts telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is available commercially but can easily be made at home 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" although it is not a true mushroom. It grows on the surface of the fermenting tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and looks like a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of numerous):

Testimonial - Hair Growth, Energy: "A few years back, at the age of 18, I had lost 50% of my hair in a period of one month! The doctor advised me to eat more meat, but I didn't because I wasn't a big meat-eater. Instead I went to the health food store and asked what to do. I was told to drink even 3-4oz of kombucha tea every morning on an empty stomach. I did, and within the first few months found that my hair was sprouting up like grass. Literally. I am sure this is what did it. It was the most dramatic result I had ever seen. Both my husband and I are drinking it, and my friends too. It also increases energy level... S.L."
