Synopsis

'Comprehensive and objective' - Dr Neil Campbell-Brown MBChB. Millions of people all over the world have discovered a remarkable healing drink that they can easily make in their own homes at virtually no cost. How? From a friendly 'culture' (fungus) called Kombucha which, when brewed with tea and sugar, is transformed into a refreshing, nutritious beverage containing healthful organic acids, vitamins, enzymes and minerals.This authoritative handbook: explains how the culture works; provides detailed answers to more than a hundred commonly-asked questions; presents in-depth case histories which gives a complete A-Z of illnesses treatable with Kombucha; and, includes Kombucha's applications for - recipes, for beauty, with animals, in the garden, and all around your home. Widely recognised as a self-empowering way to gaining better health, Kombucha therapy: detoxifies the body and improves liver function; balances metabolism and cleanses the blood; strengthens the immune system, preventing disease; aids digestion and elimination; reduces the suffering of M.E. and arthritis; relieves symptoms of eczema and asthma; and, improves energy and nutrition for all the family.The Kombucha culture reproduces itself after each fermentation, allowing its health-giving benefits to be networked and freely passed on to friends and family. Kombucha tea is not just a tonic 'energy' drink - it is a complete holistic therapy. This important book explores its ancient history, the medical research and it is the first to give credible documentation of how Kombucha tea heals the whole body, often where orthodox medicine has failed.
