Margaret,

Thanks so very much. I have had questions on some other health lists

regarding Kombucha. I have referred them to our site, but do you have any

problems

with my sharing this information elsewhere? It might be very helpful for

some new brewers.

Dear Pam, this is free shareware which appears and is quoted on several

sites.

Just google ' Roach', if you need any closer info.

With best wishes kombuchaly,

Margret:-)

Thanks Margret...for sharing it. a very good reading.

However, I have a question about the following section of it & would

appreciate any feedback/Clarification:

acidity.

What I have heard/or read is the other way around. " Cancer cells do not

thrive in an alkaline environment " . Here is the source!

This may have been answered Abdi but above 7.0 is considered alkaline

Earwig Oh again {¦:¬((

It's that ubiquitous, regular, comms. breakdown again.

Which way is " Up " ?

To me...Up the scale is in the direction of " 1 " i.e. more acid. At school,

(Along with my mate Noah)

I learned this as being

" Higher pH " (=Lower No.=More acid) pH1>>pH6.999999

7.00 = Neutral

" Lower pH " (=Higher No.=Less acid) pH7.0000001>>pH14

Some folk were taught t'other way round, there-in lies the problem.

Things may have changed in the last 50odd years but

" A rose by any...... " is still an acid

N. England.

If a group has NO topic there's no such thing as going " Off-topic "

A.B.A.L.T.A.T.

" Any, LEGAL, topic which other groups would consider Off-Topic. "

Any advance on 8?

Thanks Don, but I am confuse and would appreciate clarification here

(as I have been reading about the PH level, most/all the site

promoting the Kangen water filters are saying that " Two main factors

leading to cancer are an acidic pH and a lack of oxygen " . They

claims we need to make our body to be more " Alkaline " than Acidic by

drinking/or eating Alkaline food. ( just google " kangen,PH, cancer "

I have been making & drinking kombucha for some times now and I have

noticed it it is acidic and I love it and enjoying it (didn't

bothered me. However. my recent search for a " good water filter " to

make better Kombucha, pointed me to Kangen water and that when I

started to get confused.....)

Any comments/feedback ?

Thanks

Hi Pam and EveryOne,

While it is fine, as Margret said, to share articles such as the

History of Kombucha freely, it is not the same with posts to the list

from list members.

To share posts or copies of parts of posts from list members with

others who are not on the Original Kombucha list please ask the

writers permission before doing so. Same goes for putting anything up

on a website that a list member has contributed. Permission first!

Peace, Love and Harmony,

Bev

That is why I asked first. I have been sending those interested in Kombucha

to this list, but I thought the article might answer some questions for

those who may be contemplating Kombucha for the first time.
