Description of Kombucha

Kombucha is a invigorating tea-based drink that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal purposes. There is scientific information supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the expense of such studies. There are many centuries of anecdotal stories telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold commercially 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 forms on the surface of the fermenting tea during the period of time the tea is fermenting and resembles a near whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial (Just one of dozens and dozens):

Testimonial - Energy: "I LOVE kombucha!! I brewed my first batch successfully last week! My second batch should be done tomorrow.

I am drinking kombucha as a preventative measure so I have not noticed anything except extreme energy. My husband has arthritis in his knees. He drank kombucha for a week and he now has no pain, even with bad weather coming! I love this stuff. Thank you so much for all your help and information! It is really not as hard as people make it out to be! ... B.L.M."

Is Kombucha safe?

Most ask this question because they have heard that some mushrooms are toxic or they have been told misinformation about Kombucha. Kombucha is not a mushroom it is not poisonous. People only call it a mushroom, it is not a mushroom.

Kombucha has been used for health improvement for over 2000 years 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 stated that 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 has a risk of contamination but the risk is probably less so for Kombucha because it is a fermented beverage and as it ferments it creates a small amount of alcohol which helps to protect the tea against pathogens.

No one has died from drinking properly prepared 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 some few people may be sensitive to any number of things. An allergic is usually just a skin reddening or a minor.

Kombucha Tea is acidic but no more so than wine, orange juice, or grapefruit 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 large amounts of the tea when it is sour, this would not be a smart thing to do, drinking very large amounts of anything is usually not a wise thing to do.

A Kombucha mushroom could develop a mold but this is not common. Most common food molds are harmless but a contamination can ruin the taste of the tea. This minor problem is 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."]
