Organic kombucha cultures, scobys, extracts, and bottled kombucha tea made with fresh organic ingredients and organic green teas and black teas
| Kombucha culture tea can change your health and maybe your life. |
| Kombucha cultures or SCOBY have been used traditional for hundreds of years throughout the world as a beneficial health drink and daily tonic. Kombucha tea (pronounced kom-boo-sha, Kombu tea in English), also called a Manchurian mushroom, is a living culture which grows on top of a mixture of brewed tea and sugar in which the culture has been introduced. Although it is called a mushroom, it is not a mushroom at all as it does not produce spores or "fruit." The "mushroom" or SCOBY can be describe as a light brown or creamy white disk that grows on top of the liquid tea/sugar mixture and will take the form of the container that is in, which is why most look circular in the pictures you may see. Again, it is not a mushroom at all, but really a yeast culture that has a symbiotic relationship with various bacteria, which duplicates itself during each brewing cycle. The correct name for the "mushroom" is a S.C.O.B.Y - a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast. The culture may look fragile, however, it is really thick and leathery in consistency. The finished brewed tea should be regarded principally as a live food unusually rich in nutritive properties. The finished fermented product taste something like cider with a nice fizz. As with yogurt or miso, the bacteria and cultures in the tea are a great source of nutrition, aiding in metabolic function and balance. |
Kombucha tea is transformed from sweetened tea to a fermented drink with a beneficial cultures in about 7 to 10 days.
Making a great daily health tonic you can use as preventative medicine
| It is thought that the culture originated in Tibet or China, around 221 B.C., maybe in the Tsin-Dynasty of the Chinese empire. It was then brought to Japan where from there it was then introduced to the western world. It may be known by many different names in other parts of the world, such as Manchurian Tea, Remedy of Immortality, elixir of long life, cembuya, Kambotscha, Kouchakinoko, Manchu Fungus, Mo-Gu, Fungus japonicus, tea fungus, Indo Japanese tea fungus, Olinka, Tschambucco, Volga spring, Kwassan, Pichia fermentans, Cembuya orientalis, Combuchu, Champignon de longue vie, Tea Kvass, and Tea Kwass to name a few. The history of the original origins of the tea has been somewhat lost, however, we do know that the tea has been used in the cultures that are now part of China and Russia for many hundreds of years. NBC Dateline's report on Kombucha stated that over 3 million people currently use this beverage as a health alternative and daily tonic! The main benefit, from drinking the tea, is helping the body in finding a natural balance. This is one reason why it is not symptom specific – why it does not always help a specific immune-related illness, but rather seems to go to a person’s own weakness or personal imbalance. Such a substance which has no specific harmful effect is called an adaptogen. Its adaptogen effect is seen mostly through its influence on the liver, the blood and the digestive system, where it normalizes the acidity or pH. Metabolic balancing and detoxification is perhaps the most important functions of Kombucha. |
