Re: Re: Kombucha Reaction-Advice Please

Stress and fatique can most definitely bring on a myriad of symptoms, but its

odd you only notice

it after drinking your KT. As you said its a great all purpose cleaner, but

sad you can't enjoy drinking it at the moment. Perhaps later on will be

better. Since you have the two kefir's I wouldn't worry too much healthwise,

just enjoy what you have and perhaps in time your body will accept the KT

once again.

Weather is insane most everywhere these days. even here in southern California

where its typically the best of the best. Dips from 90+ to 40's- in one

day , heavy winds, more rain that usual

not complaining cuz I know its worse everywhere else, but just so you know we

get uncomfortable too.
