On the beneficial properties of tea fungus infusion (or, as it is also called – tea kvass) is known to almost every adult. Almost all of its useful qualities are associated with a high content of organic acids, which create cleansing, antibacterial, tonic and healing effects on the human body.
But lovers of this drink should not forget that in addition to the beneficial properties that kombucha has, it also has some contraindications.
Infusion of kombucha is not advisable to use fresh for those people who suffer from fungal diseases. Since the sugar contained in the infusion harms the health of patients with fungus and complicates the treatment of the disease. But a sufficiently fermented infusion of kombucha (about 8-12 days) is absolutely safe, since sugar is mixed with metabolic products in it. In this form, kombucha, on the contrary, increases the body’s defenses and successfully counteracts fungal diseases.
The high content of sugar and acids worsens the condition of diseased teeth. The acid contained in the infusion has a detrimental effect on tooth enamel, which as a result can lead to caries.
Kombucha is not recommended for diabetics.
It is not recommended to consume kombucha in large quantities (more than one liter per day) and you should not drink undiluted fermented infusion. This can only be done when the kombucha has stood for more than three days and the resulting infusion is still very weak.
With increased acidity, they do not need to be abused.
When taking the mushroom, it is recommended to observe small breaks every two months so as not to irritate the stomach.
Before a trip, a motorist should not use a strong infusion, because this product contains alcohol.
When preparing an infusion, it is not allowed to replace sugar with honey, since it has not been established how the composition of the drink changes and therefore it is not known what the outcome may be after taking such an infusion.
Suffering from ulcers, gastritis or low blood pressure, you need to be very careful with kombucha infused with green tea, as it contains quite a lot of caffeine, which greatly tones and affects the gastrointestinal tract.
Many doctors advise not to use the infusion right before meals, during meals and after it. If you neglect this advice, then you will feel hungry almost immediately. Therefore, to prevent this from happening, drink a drink an hour after eating.
