Guest guest Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 WOW, that seems like a long time. Is it strong like vinegar? Do you mix it with anything or drink it straight?

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 hi karen... its got a little bite to it. makes my lips pucker. but i like it. havent had any sugar in over a year - cept what i get in green veggies. and if meat or chicken has sugar i get it from there too. i cant even eat fruit - too much sugar. i drink it straight. i think its delicious.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 Im having the exact same problem. It is thrush and I'm concerned about the sugar also. I do not want to stop drinking my tea though. I have found that if I dont drink quite as much tea and watch my other sugar intake the thrush backs off. Some people are sensitive to yeast overload. It's called candida albacans(sorry if spelling is off). I'm a medic and I am trying to find out more info on this if I can and I will let you know. I refuse to go on a candida diet...it is miserable. I have tried the Nature's life pro-96 acidophilus probiotic non filtered liquid that seems to help. Just take a mouth full and keep it in your mounth for about 5 minutes then swallow it. It does help. I'll let ya know if I find anyting else out. Patty > > Original Kombucha ListI've been 'doing' KT for almost a year, and got my friend to start brewing/drinking about 2 months ago.

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 Our baby has white patches on her upper lip, the inside and I saw a few on her upper inside cheek. Could this be thrush? She is no longer breastfeeding as my milk has dried up I am about 4 1/5 months pg. Our daughter is 10 months old. She doesn't seem to be in any pain, but she is having a hard time going poop. We are giving her half prune juice, and half water, and then she seems to have an explosion...all over the place so we are trying to find the right amount. She is on goat milk, but we are watering it down, and she does eat table food. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
