Kombuchas and "growing" instruction sheets making the rounds. No one
means to cause others harm, but most people, no matter how
well-intentioned, have not thoroughly researched the growing,
harvesting, and continued maintenance of the Kombucha, and are

Kombucha in a plastic, ceramic, colored glass or crystal bowl can
actually harm you? And that the babies grown from that Kombucha are
also contaminated, and most likely will ALWAYS he contaminated, so
that starting over with a clear, uncontaminated, Pyrex type bowl will
NOT solve the problem?

what you do? Or that using most herbal teas, or Earl Grey tea can
permanently weaken the Kombucha or even kill it? Now that I've scared

starves them? Or that storing them in plastic bags in the refrigerator

them? Forever? Or that the "baby" grows on TOP of the "mother?" Or
that you can drink 4 ounces of Kombucha tea
