Kristen Bridge Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I'm 14 weeks and have continued to drink kombucha - although I stopped brewing my own right now and have stuck with GTs brand mostly. I made some Kombucha Gelatin with Great Lakes Gelatin - so good and perfect as a cold treat. Sorry I can't find the recipe I used right now!

GFChris Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Sorry - I need to ask - what is kombucha? I keep seeing it in posts and I've never heard of it? Thanks ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It's a fermented drink of enzymes and probiotics. You can either "brew" your own, or buy it already made. Here is a popular brand: http://www.synergydrinks.com/ There's a huge thread in the Recipe Sharing section of the forum for folks who want to make their own Kombucha. http://forum.whole9life.com/topic/10419-kombucha-makers-unite-where-to-ask-and-be-answered/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucy_toronto Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 So I guess it is ok while breastfeeding, right? I found this brand which has kombucha with green tea decaf. Is it whole 30 compliant? http://www.yogiproducts.com/products/details/green-tea-kombucha/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan W Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Thanks - sounds good although I'm not sure I fancy making my own :/ another question - does it have sugar in? I'm in the uk and the ones I've found online seem to contain sugar? Actually, all kombucha contains sugar. It's necessary for the fermentation process. If it contained zero sugar, it would be vinegar and undrinkable. The sugar feeds the SCOBY. I make my own, but when I buy it, I look for no more than 2-4% sugar. I think Robin said up to 6% is okay. Any more than that and they are adding it after fermentation as a sweetner. I know a few people in the UK have found compliant kombucha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonec Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 i drank kombucha through much of my pregnancy and my kids have been drinking it since they were 2 or 3 years old, they only get a little bit...i started with just giving them an occasional sip of mine, now that i brew my own i give them each up to 1/ 4 bottle (they are 6 years old now).
