Is Kombucha really good for me?


Lately the popularity of this drink has been increasing. Some say that they like it for the taste and the effervescence, and others say for health benefits. The truth is that Kombucha is popular for both aspects: the flavor and the benefits. As for the flavor, there is a wide variety of flavors on the market, depending on the company. Instead, in terms of benefits, they all provide the same, mainly because of the live probiotics. Now how beneficial is this drink? Below we will explain more in detail about this popular and modern soft drink.

What is Kombucha?

Do you like your tea with sugar or cream? How about with bacteria? Kombucha is a mix of tea, sugar and live probiotics that many people consume today. Lovers of this fermented tea claim that it provides health benefits such as better digestion, less stress and more energy.

What so special about it?

Although this drink is being a trend these days, it really was created in ancient times. This drink dates back 2000 years ago in Ancient China, where it was regularly consumed to remedy inflammatory diseases such as arthritis and was thought to protect against cancer. Recently, Kombucha enthusiasts have used it as a home remedy for acne, fatigue, hypertension, headaches, and constipation.

When we talk about Kombucha or any fermented food or drink, we are talking about probiotics. Probiotics are live bacteria beneficial to the body. They keep our intestines healthy and help improve our digestive system. Good digestion allows us to relieve the body of the stress caused by processing complex foods and improves the absorption of nutrients; This has a direct impact on our immune and nervous systems, helps keep the body healthy, and even supports the treatment of certain medical conditions.

In this sense, many people agree that this drink can give us several good benefits for our health. It is for this reason that in Pranama we are motivated to offer this type of drink and other fermented foods and drinks.
