Kombucha is a living health drink made by fermenting sweetened tea with a kombucha culture. As the Kombucha culture digests the sugar, it produces a range of organic acids, vitamins, amino acids, and microorganisms. Many of the benefits include improvements in energy levels, metabolic disorders, allergies, digestive problems, and candidiasis.
