Kombucha: Benefits Including Gut Health, Immunity, Cancer-Fighter, and even helps with Weight Loss?

Healthy organic kombucha superfood probiotic drink in glass on white background

I actually fell in love with the tangy, sweet/sour, bubbly awesomeness about ten years ago, and have been addicted ever since. Barely a day goes by when I don’t pick up a bottle or pour myself a glass from my home brew. It has an amazing taste, and really does make you feel happier and energetic—almost immediately!

Kombucha has had quite a surge in popularity lately, and there are now several brands (depending on where you shop) to choose from. Depending on what you read or who you talk to, kombucha has been attributed with health benefits that range from clearing up acne to curing cancer, but many of these are unsubstantiated thus far.

Kombucha has been around for a least a couple thousand years in Asia and other countries. The Chinese called it an “immortal health elixir”. Because it’s fermented, you get billions of powerful probiotics in your system when you drink it. Kombucha comes from black and/or green tea, water, and sugar. During fermentation, the bacteria and yeast in the SCOBY actually ‘eat’ up most (not all) of the sugar and part of the caffeine, creating vinegar and other acidic compounds, with trace amounts of alcohol, and gases that make it carbonated.

The colony of friendly bacteria that ferments the tea—looking like a giant mushroom is called a “SCOBY” which stands for “symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast”. While the tea ferments, the SCOBY helps create b-vitamins, enzymes, acetic acid, (found in apple cider vinegar), gluconic and lactic acid, and a ton of great probiotics!

This blob is a biochemical powerhouse that produces amino acids, enzymes, polyphenols (antioxidants), antibiotic type substances, and a whole array of phytochemicals that are beneficial to your health. Kombucha has been scientifically studied for its ability to:

Detox the liver

Increase energy (I always feel great after having it!)

Improve digestion

Boost immune system

Help prevent or fight cancer

Aid in weight loss

Improve mood—decrease anxiety and depression

Kombucha has also been touted as being beneficial for acne, anxiety, arthritis, eczema, hangovers, hair growth, and more, but many of these claims have not yet been backed up with conclusive scientific evidence on humans.

In research published in the Journal of Medicinal Food 2014, researchers from the University of Latvia did say the following about the genuine health benefits of kombucha:

“It is shown that [kombucha] can efficiently act in health preservation and recovery due to four main properties: detoxification, anti-oxidation, energizing potencies, and promotion of boosting immunity.”

I have a couple of bottles of Kombucha in the fridge. I forgot about them. Think I will drink them this week.

They even give a recipe for home made Kombucha.

A full orchestra. Nice! I love the timpanies in the beginning. It was the theme from 2001: A Space Odyssey. And there were the classic woodwinds such as the Oboe. Thanks, Dak. ;)

Pass that doob, BTP!

When I lived in Chicago, me and another guy went to Indiana and cut some ditch weed. It was a blast and we thought we really got away with something. But it was poor quality.

I hear that smoking weed is good for your eyes. I knew a guy in Florida that was smoking it for his glaucoma. ;)

Ditchweed was just an excuse to go up north for most of us hoosier hicks, cheap beer and not too many cops. It was fun, camping with girls, wrassling wolverines, buying pancakes...!
