I have had severe GERD for many years. After drinking kombucha tea for a few months, my GERD has all but disappeared and I no longer need to take prescriptions for acid reflux.

I bought bottled Kombucha just to try it as a beverage. I did not want it for any kind of treatment. It gave me a dreadful heartburn. I did not realize it contained caffeine and a little alcohol.

On the recommendation of several friends who drank Kombucha Tea, I tried two sips. Within minutes, my right ear plugged up (like I had been swimming and full of water - very ODD) and my throat itched and head hurt.

On the recommendation of several friends who drank Kombucha Tea, I tried two sips. Within minutes, my right ear plugged up (like I had been swimming and full of water - very ODD) and my throat itched and head hurt. When I got home, I felt like I was having an allergic reaction, so I took some allergy medicine and laid down for 30 minutes which resolved the symptoms I was experiencing. When I shared my experience with those who gave me the Kombucha to try, their response was that they hadn't heard of anyone having an adverse allergic reaction. When I started to research on my own, I found that those who SOLD the supplies to make it touted that this sort of reaction was a sort of "detox" of the body, yet when I searched outside of those profitting from the sale of Kombucha, I found that there were indeed many concerns about it and that allergic reactions were NOT uncommon and that the risks outweighed any proven benefits. I just wanted to share my experience in the event that it might help others showing interest in the acclaimed supposed "benefits" of this tea and to PROCEED WITH CAUTION and to EDUCATE YOURSELF on the true benefits outside of those who brew it themselves or profit from selling it.
