Kombucha: beneficial properties
There is still a lot of controversy about the dangers and benefits of kombucha, but scientifically proven facts are often not enough to establish the only correct point of view. However, doctors have already managed to prove the inconsistency of the myth that the use of this remedy has no contraindications. As it turned out, it should not be used by people with high acidity of gastric juice or with kidney and liver diseases, allergy sufferers, pregnant women, lactating mothers, hypertensive patients. Moreover, even if a person is in good health, these mushrooms may not have the best effect on his body, therefore, such a remedy should be used with caution.
Keep in mind that these mushrooms are high in sugar as well as acids, so they can be very harmful for people with dental problems. In such cases, after using them, the teeth need to be brushed.
The second myth says that these mushrooms are an excellent remedy for most diseases, and their use helps to improve vision and boost immunity. However, scientists advise not to rush to believe such words, because there is still no evidence that the drink has those “magical” properties that are attributed to it. Moreover, it has been found that improper preparation and use can cause serious harm to health. For example, it is strongly discouraged to leave a drink on the window, because under the influence of sunlight, bacteria that are very harmful to humans develop in it. Also, do not use the mushroom too early or too late, i.e. when it is immature or overripe. In these cases, it can be harmful to health.
Most often, kombucha is used for non-traditional treatment, as well as to strengthen the immune system, but cosmetologists recommend using it for skin care. Such a remedy is especially useful in cases where you need to remove oily shine, cleanse enlarged pores and relieve irritation and inflammation. It acts very gently, does not dry out the skin and makes it smooth and velvety.
Such a remedy works very well not only for cleansing and moisturizing the skin, but even for getting rid of burns. Thanks to him, you can remove redness and relieve pain in a short time. As a result, burns disappear quickly and often leave no marks.
