What is Kombucha and its benefits

Kombucha is an ancient drink that has been gaining more and more space on the shelves and in the daily lives of those looking for healthy and natural alternatives. Originating from Asia, this fermented tea-based drink has attracted attention not only for its unique flavor, but also for its many health benefits.

Behind Kombucha lies a fascinating natural fermentation process. It all starts with a sweetened tea base, to which a SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeast) is added - a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast. During the fermentation process, which can last from 7 to 15 days, this culture transforms the tea into a

Naturally carbonated probiotic drink with a flavor that combines sweet and sour notes.

Health benefits

Kombucha is more than just a refreshing drink. Here are some of its main benefits:

  2. Source of Antioxidants - Because it is made from tea, Kombucha has antioxidant properties that help fight free radicals in the body.

  3. Immune System Support - The combination of probiotics and antioxidants strengthen the body's natural defenses.

  4. Enzymes and Organic Acids - During fermentation, enzymes and organic acids are produced that can aid in digestion and metabolism.
