KOMBUCHAKombucha is known as the “Immortal Health Elixir” and originated in China over 2,000 years. This fermented drink contains black tea and sugar or honey and what makes it so powerful is its fermentation process which creates good bacteria and yeast resulting in vinegar, b-vitamins, probiotics, enzymes and a high concentration of acetic, gluconic, and lactic acids.

What are the benefits?

  • Improved digestion
  • Weight loss
  • Increased Energy
  • Cleansing and detoxification
  • Reduced joint pain
  • Cancer prevention
