Guest guest Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 I'm still knocking around the idea concerning benefits of kombucha for my diabetic husband. My husband is considering taking the diabetes drug Metformin. I read on a website today that reports have found evidence that the medication leads to the buildup of lactic acid in the blood in people with moderate kidney or heart disease (neither of which he has, but still at risk). http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/07/070725093631.htm As I understand it, kombucha contains lactic acid. Are there any diabetics here taking Metformin? Should this be a concern? I suspect this is way too complicated to address here, but does anyone have any experience with this? -Patty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
