Kombucha ~ My new favorite beverage

What's in Kombucha and how do these ingredients support health?

Kombucha culture has a wide range of organic acids, probiotics, acids and
enzymes that give it its extraordinary value. Here's a brief look at the
benefits of each:

Beneficial Probiotics - Due to the prolific presence of pesticides,
antibiotics, and preservatives, the beneficial micro-organisms present in
our bodies are being destroyed and killed off on a regular basis. These
friendly microbes play a huge role in our digestive and immune systems.
Therefore, it is crucial that they are replenished from natural sources like
kefir, yogurt, and Kombucha. Our beverages contain Lactobacillus Bacterium
and S. Boulardii, which can help support a healthy digestive and immune
system.

Live Active Enzymes - Active Enzymes are generally only found in foods
that have not been cooked, processed, or refined. They are like the “spark
plugs” for the body's cells because they put "life" back in our bodies. If
you think about it, the body is a living thing; why would you feed it
something that is dead?

Polyphenols - These are antioxidants that fight off the free-radicals
that stress the body and compromise its youth and health.

Organic Acids
These nutrients can help promote tissue and blood alkalinity and help
normalize the natural process of homeostasis throughout the body.
# Lactic acid helps maintain healthy digestive action (through the
probiotic lactobacilli) and for energy production by the liver
# Acetic acid is an antiseptic and inhibitor of pathogenic bacteria.
# Glucuronic acid, normally produced by a healthy liver, is a powerful
detoxifier and can readily be converted into glucosamines, the foundation of
our skeletal system.
# Usnic acid has selective antibiotic qualities which can partly
deactivate viruses.
# Oxalic acid encourages the intercellular production of energy, and is a
preservative.
# Malic acid also helps the liver to detoxify.
# Butyric acid protects human cellular membranes, and combined with
Gluconic acid strengthens the walls of the gut in order to combat yeast
infections such as Candida.
# Nucleic acids, like RNA and DNA, transmit information to the cells on
how to perform correctly and regenerate.

How do you get your Kombucha, from local brewers like in cafe's or is there a more readily available mass-production one that is available in stores?

It sounds amazing, but I am having problems finding much info on it's availability.

p.s. I'm on my 3rd complete cycle thorugh P90x and fully intend to be a P90X-er for life

OH hey are you making your Kombucha? I currently make Kefir and I got my grains from an ebay store called Nick's Natural Nook. I am considering trying to make my own Kombucha as well, I have never had it but I keep hearing how wonderful it is. You have tipped the scales for me to finally just do it.

I've found Kombucha tea at local health food stores bottled and ready to drink, it comes in Original or Green Tea. You will find instructions on how to brew and prepare at home. Fairly simple yet care in doing so is needed.
Another tea that is similar or even better is Tibicos Tea also known as Tibeten crystals, same process to create. Consumed by people for centuries as a health drink with the same results as Kombucha.

Hi this is kind of of off topic but I was wondering
if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with
HTML. I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding expertise so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!

I hardly leave comments, however after reading through
a lot of remarks here "Kombucha ~ My new favorite beverage".

I actually do have 2 questions for you if it's okay. Is it simply me or does it seem like a few of the comments appear as if they are coming from brain dead folks? :-P And, if you are writing on other social sites, I would like to follow you. Would you make a list of every one of your social community sites like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?
