I was a little afraid to do the ACV due to its effect on potassium levels. I take BP med, and I notice I don’t have the heart jitters when I eat avocado, sooo. Ii don’t use kombucha all the time, but I used it to break my various serious sugar addiction. To set my gut straight. Very , very, helpful.
Thank you for this video. I've been taking apple cider vinegar for years but I just started getting into kombucha
Could you please note the brand(s) you recommend somewhere?
Ok, I feel like a complete idiot 🙃 it was right in front of me.
Question: "Does ACV Tea have the same benefits as just drinking ACV from the bottle?" ACV = Apple Cider Vinegar
We take 2 tbsp of Braggs ACV w/ mother in 8oz of water before meals and bedtime. Both my me and my wife’s blood pressure was normalized after about 4 weeks to the point where we had to stop taking blood pressure meds. Doctors were suspicious but now have agreed that we don’t need the meds anymore. Also helps with many other things.
Congrats
Wow, thats awesome. I think I'll try drinking this as well. I'm young and have high blood pressure, no idea why. I eat healthy, workout consistently, and have little stress. Doctors have done their tests but unfortunately just administered medication, which I hate. I'd really like to take a different approach rather than medication.
If you don't mind, are there other tips or tricks you might recommend in order to lower your BP? Thank you.
Yeah my doctor tells me to stay on the meds despite a drop since 'getting healthier'. He argues that it cannot hurt and with the meds my BP is usually around 107/70 and sometimes even lower.
@@kl0wnkiller912 that’s lower than normal though! Why does he continue to keep you on the meds?
Just want to say... i can't believe how wrong i was without knowing it about food. I was eating sweet junks because they made me happy. But i am more happy without them. Who would thought that??? Healthy Food + outdoor activity completely transforms you. Takes time, months but it works. No more sad mood or depression. Still little bit but is fine now. And thats less than 10kgs of weight!!! From 78 to 71. I look better. I feel better and more confident.
Made kombucha myself and don't believe it had much sugar in it after fermentation yeast eats most of it gets more acidic the longer it set's have some videos I took of co2 bubbles coming from the scoby.❤
Thank you so much for the information on total sugars and added sugars. I was always one that would avoid products with added sugar and would always think, ‘Well, at least there’s no added sugar’. But you have really opened my eyes to the tricks companies uses. If you have any more information on labeling tricks, I would love a video on it!
Thank you Dr. Ekberg for another life-saving video! Appreciate your love and passion for health and wellness. Hope all is well.
Thank You, yes all is well, thanks for the wishes. I am actually visiting my mother in Sweden as I am writing this and she just watched this video as well. 😀
Yay! I use apple cider vinegar and a little first cold press olive oil in my salad! Used to love balsamic vinegar… but good to know the benefits of apple cider vinegar. 👍 thank you for sharing all your knowledge. Sugar is sugar….for me it’s not good at all. 🙌
Thank you for being so knowledgeable, thorough, & for explaining everything that people can understand! Love your videos!👍❤️💯
Thank you dr Ekberg for this video and all the research you have done on this topic- was very informative , appreciate all the info on percentage of acidity each contains etc etc ! Very informative!! 🙏🙏👍
I make “Jun” kombucha, which uses green tea- organic honey being the sugar source for fermentation...fairly easy to make and add berries added during the 2nd fermentation for flavor...
Hey I would love to learn how to do this , is there any video , I want to make with Honey
I recently started making my own kombucha and kefir for the probiotic benefits. Combined with a low carb diet I think you can't go wrong. It still runs you cheaper than buying a high quality probiotic supplement. It's very easy to start so I'll encourage anyone to try it!
We just tried combining the two...!!
Small amount of Kombucha and the same amount of water, plus a tbsp of ACV..!!
It was quite acceptable, and we will try to have some half an hour before our meals...
Our meals start with some vegetables and olive oil. Then some protein, and lastly a small amount of resistant starch or pre cooked lentils....
I want to clarify the broad statement of "Sugar is sugar". There is a major difference between glucose and fructose when it comes to their metabolic pathways. Fructose can only be metabolized in the liver, thus contributing to fatty liver disease via lipogenesis. Glucose can be metabolized by many different cells in your body. It can raise insulin levels, but it will not damage your liver like fructose.
Is there much of a difference between hfcs and natural fruit sugar?
@@GygaxGirl fruits are healthy. Just eat one meal a day with three fruits. No garbage foods and a veggie meal. Can eat tomatoes with the veggies.
Praxis....most people have no clue of their total intake of all types of processed sugars in a day.... they don't read labels, have a sweet tooth, or don't care....there has been a huge increase in obesity & insulin resistance from constant over production of it leading to T2 diabetes....sugar & simple carbs cause fat gain not healthy fats....the low fat diet was a dis-info narrative taught for decades because we now know healthy fats are vital & can help with weight loss.
@@yellowdayz1800 absolutely. I had a book long ago about fructose in fruit. It said it does have an insulin response like regular sugar. I bought it in a health food store. I added one teaspoon to my juice. I didn't get hungry anymore, and I lost 60 lbs. It's been about 45 yrs ago and I was never as overweight again. Now I just eat a lot of fruit.
@@marilynsummit1764 thanks. I love fruits. They are my favorite thing to eat.
We've made kombucha, and have allowed it to ferment longer than the commercial grade, but also if done right, it will naturally carbonate. Good stuff - thanks for this one!
A short second ferment with additional sugar or fruit juice may cause the alcohol content to increase.
I made Kombucha through Continuous Brew and followed by secondary fermentation with flavors. That helps.
so true. I find some of the store bought kombusha are way too sweet and don't have the natural carbonation
The natural carbonation definitely tastes better than those made from machines. It brings out the kick on the kombucha.
Thank you for all the information you share about health and wellness, much appreciated.
I an interested in the Brix meter mentioned in your ACV/Kombucha video. Is there any unit you recommend, or what should we look for in a model?
Thanks again, Jackie
Very much appreciate your fair and balanced analysis, that you're not out to throw something under the bus. You tell it like it is so people can decide for themselves, which is empowering!
As always the complicated information delivered by you is awesomely in simple manner. Thanks again. I love the intro music most.
cheers
Life long high blood pressure,strict vegan diet for 6 years,didnt budge my blood pressure.6 weeks been on carnivore diet, first time ever blood pressure near normal.
Strict vegan diet is terrible for humans causes all kids of health issues as you found our first hand !
ACV get rid of warts and basically anything nasty on or just under the skin if you can soak it long enough (cotton wool and bandaid is enough overnight usually) Also fixed my hearing in one ear, loud grinding noise gone, put ACV in it with a stopper overnight, been perfect for two years now.
What I really like about Your videos are those fact comparing tables, going into very detail, but presented so everybody can understand. Thank You for Your efforts.
I make my own Kombucha, and on the second ferment I always add ginger with some type of fruit. The blueberry ginger is my favorite. I did try making water kefir recently; it ended up tasting like beer. I must have let it set too long, because it was so carbonated, it shot across my kitchen when opened.
I'm making a SCOBY right now in my kitchen cabinet. I let the tea sit for two weeks. But I also have been starting to use ACV in my salad dressing. I hope to get both benefits.
Thank you for taking the time to research this subject and for making this video. Not all doctors will take the time to do this. Thank you sir!
Most doctors are always in a rush😢
Yes, does good work. He is not a "doctor", as in an "MD".
@@dummgelauft He is a DC, Doctor of Chiropractic, a good thing.
Oops! Just found your answer! I’ll watch that other video now! Thanks
@@jaime1818 yep that's because they're ignorant and just want to see as many people as they can in the least amount of time. Its all about the bucks... greed. But not on my watch. I don't give a dime to such selfish greeds that will never help anyone but will push drugs that'll keep you returning to them and the cycle continues. What a bunch of whoossies, losers.
Superb video brother!
Your attention to every minute detail is unmatched.
Thanks again for sharing your knowledge!
Peace and blessings 🙏
little anecdote. I was visiting my friend in early May. He showed me a patch of grass in his yard that was visibly thicker and and greener than the rest. It turns out that his motherwas making kombucha but she decided to quit and she spilled the tea in which fungus was in the grass and you could clearly see line where it was spilled. He said that since than grass on that patch was growing almost as twice as fast compared with rest of yard and also all sort of mushrooms was popping up there.
I dont know what nutrients in had but definitely something was working out just great for plant life .
Fungus is a keystone species in the soil you can't have healthy topsoil without fungus. The mushrooms are the fruiting bodies of the fungus in the soil.
Fungus break down the dirt in the soil to make minerals available to the plant the same way they work in your gut.
Plants love bacillus
Read up on JADAM and Korean Natural Farming. Fermented mixes are great for growing stuff.
i have been having gerd for about 2 years (2020-2021) i cant eat too much meat, soda, coffee, ramen etc. it made me bloated and i couldnt sleep at night, my stomach growling like there was air trapped, i feel so uneasy at night. after having acv twice daily, all my symptoms are gone, i havent touch any medicine in the past year. the doctor even prescribed me antacids, unbelievable. my problem is low Hydrochloric acid which i couldnt digest properly because of stress. hope all people who couldnt get rid of gerd by having medicine, just use ACV. it seriously HELPS
I can attest to this, and especially the painful bloating. ACV and intermittent fasting cleared GERD. No more Nexium😅.
Thank you for the detailed information. Would love to see one on kefir. Water based, dairy based, store bought, home made etc.
You always manage to explain a topic I’ve already been thinking about !!!
Thank you so much Dr Ekberg. You can’t realize how much your videos have help me! I wait every Friday to have a new gold information coming from you. I would love to hear you knowledge about water kefir as well as milk kefir. I ferment both at home and wait until I taste the acid really well.
*I hadn't realized the differences between them and how they can impact our health in unique ways. Thank you for sharing this valuable information!*
No one educates like dr. Sten Ekberg!⚕👍
Thanks so much, I've been having ACV for a while now, but it is nice to know the details and a guide to what it does and how it works!
Thank you for your effort explaining facts. 💖💐
Great video; I've learned sooooo much from your videos. Thank you.
I've been making kombucha since early last year, so that I can control what goes into it: no added fruits or other flavorings, no preservatives or pasteurization, and I double-ferment it to the beginning-to-pucker-my-mouth stage. I'll have to try the brix meter so that I can quantify that sugar level.
One other thing: I use dextrose (glucose) rather than sucrose (table sugar, which is half glucose and half fructose) in order to eliminate the fructose altogether. The SCOBY seems to be just as happy to work on straight glucose.
Edited a few days later: I did order a brix meter. My kombucha comes in at #4. That seems to be the level that I like -- on the tart side.

Wow Doc you're already more than 2M subs! I'm happy I'm here before 1M.
Though I'm still not yet fully adapted to keto diet, I'm always thankful to all your in depth teaching
Is the mother edible?
Thank you, Dr. Ekberg for sharing your knowledge on this topic.
Thank you doctor, you are one of those rare people who are not afraid to tell the truth for the benefit of their followers.
Thank you for all your videos sir, recent subscriber!!!!
Superb breakdown! I use ACV & kombucha regularly. I run my homemade kombucha way longer than most home brewers, then I add 10% organic tart cherry juice by weight for a second fermentation (natural carbonation) and great flavor.
Where do you buy the cherry juice?
@@karimadrianjan Puritans Pride sells it on line.
Sounds amazing for gout
I love how he mentions if it’s pasteurized you might of just well drink sweet tea. Thank you so much for the real info
Here for anything organic, this explanation was so concise thanks for sharing love from JA🇯🇲
Thank you I like making my own Kombucha and I take both , I will look for the metre and buy it
One of my clients was taking homemade Kombuch who was diabetic and his a1c improved drastically and lost a lot of weight too
I think it may also assist
Thanks Doc
A full day of eating video would be cool to see Stan. I realize it’s a different format but it’d be cool to see!
Thank you for sharing this knowledge and time from Johannesburg South Africa 👍
Thank you Dr. Ekberg. What a beautiful, clear, presentation full of great and very useful info. Much gratitude and blessings. Namaste.
Thank you Dr. Ekberg for this informative video. I used to make kombucha but I was not a big fan of it. Could you please do a video on milk kefir and water kefir?
To much sugar in milk
Great Video Doc, I make my own kombucha using green tea and black tea the first fermentation is usually around 7 days and the 2nd fermentation is the same usually around 7 days, so I only use 1 cup of sugar per gallon of tea and on the 2nd fermentation I use a 1/4 cup of juice added to 12 to 16 ounces of tea according to what size bottles I use, the juice is usually a organic juice with ginger, my favorites are Beet juice, carrot turmeric and ginger juice and ginger soother juice, my Kombucha is very carbonated and its all natural carbonation very much like ginger ale I make 3 gallons a week and I share with my friends some of which had IBS and other digestive problems and they have all told me they feel much better, I personally drink a gallon or more of kombucha a week and I feel great Im 57 with no health problems so I believe when making a comparison video of the 2 it would be interesting to know the benefits of the healthy juices that are added to Kombucha like ginger, turmeric and beet juice, thanks again Doc !
I have my very first kombucha in the jug, right now. Hope it's as successful as yours❤!
@@theantiqueactionfigure we just started our home-brewed kombucha life about 1 month ago - loving it!!
I've been making my own for a few years now. It is time consuming (I drink it a lot), but very rewarding and hence, well worth the effort. I do first fermentation with Pu-erh tea for 14 days, and the second with various combinations of added liquidized fruit (pineapple is my favorite). That added mixture represents less than 10 percent of the final volume and it ferments for 3-4 days.
I only will drink homemade Kombucha. Store bought is gross to me. I usually only use black tea with raw cane sugar, but I ferment mine much longer, a minimum of 3-4 weeks and then when I do the 2nd Ferm, I put in fresh raspberries for 3 days before straining out the remnants of the raspberries... it's delicious. I also love taking the ACV in warm lemon water in the am and at night.... I'm just getting back into the booch process and looking forward to it :) can't wait :)
Thank you, doctor, I enjoy watching and learning and sharing your videos.
Thank you doctor, your advice is priceless! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I have a question for you Doc. In terms of benefits from either of these products, is there a danger with regards to cancers in the body by adding acids to the bloodstream. From what I've read a higher PH in the alkaline is supposed to help stop sugars from fermenting in cells and prevent damage and/or proliferation/growth of tumors. So can there be a downside to these products for Cancer patients?
The tsp you need for its health benefits won't affect your blood PH by any noticeable margin. Best lay off the actual junk you consume than be mindful of the low amount of ACV you need to consume. The body regulates the PH in the body in a very strict fashion. It will draw minerals from your teeth and bones, so load up on minerals if you'reworried about acids in your bloodstream 😂
Another wonderful video! I keep a 2.5 gallon crock on top of the fridge for a kombucha continuous brew system where I can pull 1-1.5 gallons a week off with minimal effort. I time the draws depending on the objective for the bottling with early draws to allow fermentation with low sugar flavorings such as ginger, hibiscus flowers, cayenne, or tumeric. If I'm adding fruit or berries, then I will allow a low sugar draw for blackberry, raspberry, blueberry, apple, or grapes. A hint of vanilla, cinnamon, clove, anise can be fun too. I bottle back into 16oz big brand bottles checking for swollen caps or a baby "jellyfish" before placing in the fridge.
Bear in mind that a cup of initial sugar/gal is being converted into the desirable elements by the yeast and bacteria into a concentration that can be drank in volume rather than by spoon. While a cup of sugar might seem a significant amount, the process is also converting much of it into cellulose as the structure of the scoby. They make a fun, wet frisbee with the right crowd!
you always have the best explanations - thanks 🙏
I have made Kombucha starting only with 2 bottles of raw kombucha in a mason jar... covered it with a cloth and left it in a dark spot for a couple weeks... and it made its own SCOBY.... then I fed with sweet tea.... and I have been loving it ever since
Being making Kombucha for years. Easy to make and you can add your favourite flavours...tastes much better than the commercial stuff; has so many health benefits...can't tell you when last I've had a cold. Both Kombucha and ACV should be part of your daily diet routine.
I haven’t had a cold in decades and I eat fast food every day and drink alcohol heavily
I will be coming to your house with a syringe for your blood. ;P

Dr. Sten.
@@usewisdom2 , Thank you for the correction. Sorry about that.
I've been making kombucha for about five years and recommend a second fermentation with either 1/4 c fruit syrup saft (found in Eastern European grocery stores in wine bottle size for about $5 or fresh berries (about 5 raspberries or blueberries) for a 1.75 liter bottle (source: IKEA). With the syrup I also use the "mother" from organic vinegar, which I leave at the bottom and simply refill. My fermentation is about 3 days for the first (open) fermentation and one-three weeks for the second fermentation, which makes it as naturally carbonated as any soda pop. I realize that the end result is still sweet, but I typically only drink a cup a day. The caffeine content which you did not mention is also worth taking into consideration, since it all remains during the fermentation process.
This was amazing, and just what I was looking for, Thank you!! Subscribed.
Thanks Dr. Great, easy to understand information!
Will 2 tsp of ACV in a glass of water morning and night be beneficial during 3 day water fast and would it interfere with autophagy.
In addition I am challenged with SIBO and would welcome your take on this as well.
Thank you !
I drink warm water with acv every morning before drinking coffee and eat bfsst..it helped me a lot in weight loss
Whaaat!!! Are you serious?! Is that all you do? Trying so hard to lose 50 pounds. Give me your secrets!

Thank you Doctor,
a very informative episode.
Agree!
Thank you for helping us to understand everything, God bless
Very informative. One thing to consider in comparing acetic acid (etc.) of the 2, is the amount "regular" users consume. In general, I believe that ACV users consume considerably less the Kombucha users. Thank you for the exceptional information.
Correct. People only use 1 Tablespoon of ACV in a glass of water. Some people drink a bottle of Kombucha
@@Neil-yg5gm And is it safe to consume that much of kombucha? i head ACV is dangerous if drank purely, like it should be diluted first in water. Is this the same case with Kombucha?
I make my own kombucha. Not getting it tested I drink it everyday and I drink my acv everyday also and I am happy with my gut health since
Would you please give the recipe to doctor that he make video on making home made kombucha? Thanks
Would you please share specifically what changes you've noticed? TY
@@lindajohnson4676 I am not as gassy and bloated. The pain in my right side is greatly reduced. And the carb and sugar cravings are easing. I have more energy and I am definitely more focused. And emotionally I am not having the anxiety and panic nearly as much and the overwhelming negative moods are decreasing in amount and intensity. So far 🤗😘💕
I'm only about a month into this. I thought I was healthy before because my only vice was sugar and baked goods, and I mostly used maple syrup and honey so I was healthy every food was raw and unprocessed,but with my carb, sugar addiction I was still killing myself with food. Now I am completely committed to no sugar no sweet, I am going to learn to like food without sweet and maybe in the future I may add good organic fruit back in the mix every once in a while.
Much love and blessings to you all
Very informative. I would like to see a future video of recommended commercial kombuchas for those that cannot make it themselves.
Excellent explanation of IR and how one can deal with the problem. Big thanks from me. 🇬🇧
There was one brand Kombucha tea that I really liked. It was very good tasting and sweet for only 2g sugar on label (it was a while back) It was so good, I thought to myself there is no-way there is only two grams of sugar in here. Today I see the same brand with 12g so I guess they were hoodwinking everyone. I am weary of food labels if they are true/accurate. My new one is Rebel Ice cream supposed only 4g of net carbs per pint. Where can one have stuff tested if in doubt?
I used to make kombucha at home for a couple of years. 2 gallons at a time. And I know it wasn’t 2 cups of sugar. Much less than that. Also most of the caffeine in the tea was converted to something else.
ACV is frequently made with apple pomace (whats left after pressing apples for juice) and sugar water. That is fermented to completion as you say, but still made with sugar
Great content Dr. Ekberg… much appreciated
Thanks a lot for the info about Kombucha tea . I started taking the tea a few months ago and I thought it had no sugar at all. From now I'm taking it out of my fridge for good.
Make your own and control the sugar in the second ferment?
I have a half a serving a day of kombucha and that is satisfying. Also get the ones with less added sugar.
Thank you, @DrStenEkberg. You continue to give us amazing details! Could you say what's happening when someone experiences gut discomfort and pain when drinking kombucha or apple cider vinegar / ACV? 🤔 Does that confirm having an ulcer?
Thank you Dr. Ekberg for the informative video. What do you think comparing probiotic benefit between kombucha and milk kefir?
Thanks for all your great videos.
This video touches on a related food that I've been questioning, and that is charcuterie (dried fermented meats.) From what I've gleaned most meat sticks, slim jims, pepperoni, most jerky; all have sugar or dextrose added. The curing process utilizes different bacteria and molds to give the product characteristic flavors and textures and prevent overgrown of harmful bacteria. My question is how much sugar is left in the finished product? Is the labeled sugar content what went in or what's left? Are these cultures beneficial to gut health or not? And of coarse the elephant in the room...nitrates? This would be a good topic for a future video
Agree that would be a good topic. Personally I stick with genuine Italian Prosciutto which contains only pork and salt.
Not fermented
Chomps is a “clean” brand of meat jerky. They taste good, but it’s jerky-lots of sodium.
@@johnholmes2502 inoculated then? Same principles....the mold eats the sugar....but how much?
@@TgWags69 usually all of it, and the fermentation stops when the sugar is gone
Thank you for this! I’m insulin resistant and Kombucha always spikes my blood glucose.
Awesome information, thank you!
TYSM Dr Ekberg for yet another informative video! Would the probiotics in a homemade keto yogurt give the same benefits as kombucha?
One thing stuck with me when Dr stein ekberg said your body makes everything you need if your in optimum health and you need to eat right and exercise properly basically a balanced lifestyle, then you don't need to mask every symptom with trending nonsense.
Good point!
@@5MinRaw Not true these days. You get loaded with toxins every day from stuff in the air, from your dental work, from stress and from electromagnetic stuff. You have got to take the trash out. It will not go by itself anymore even if you eat right. Your body needs help. Home made Kombucha does that, with the gluconic acid, it takes the trash can out daily
Acv cured my acid reflux..(combined with doing keto). Never noticed any difference in glucose levels.
Not me. It actually seemed to contribute but I found out that I was taking about twice the recommended dose though too so maybe that's why.
@@thistlebee3441 Mix it in with a fruit drink, it tastes quite nice but flush your mouth out afterwards as it can damage your tooth enamel otherwise.
@@thistlebee3441 ..hi, I often mixed it with green powders such as spirulina and chlorella, and very dilute. I always rinsed with a small amount of baking soda to neutralise the acid on my teeth.
Hope that helps

Hi Dr Ekberg. Any chance of a video of you making traditional Kombucha, so that we can get the maximum benefits?
I'm done watching other channels for my health information. Thank you Dr.
6:30 Kombucha...from the label looks like GT'S Kombucha. My favorite 🥰
Thanks Dr Ekberg! Great information! Helpful!
The unfiltered ACV has gotten rid of my arthritis. I can vouch for that. I encourage everyone to try it who deals with that issue. (But honestly most people don't bother to try. maybe they don't believe me? not sure.) 1 tsp in a glass of water with a straw in the am before eating. I had very bad arthritis in my 30s, especially in my hands, back and hips. It was awful but no more.
I also take same way and more often, but I'm yet to rid the arthritis. It does help my digestion though.
@@usewisdom2 Also I use Bragg's. I found best results with that brand. It did take around a couple of months for it to work for me. Good luck and I hope my info helps or you find what works for you.
@@usewisdom2 3 months
Warm water or cold water
My hands sometimes start to bother me when I work outside more in the spring and summer. Arthritis? All I know is when I take 2 tablespoons of organic apple cider vinegar each day it goes away. Thank you for all your informational videos.
Really? I take ACV daily and still have arthritis in my hands and knees.
@@usewisdom2 how much u take?
Do u drink?
Dairy?
Processed meat, sugars?
@@averyt6521 good questions. However, I'm what some may call a square because. I never drink alcohol, nor smoked anythingand I live vegetables. I used to eat meat (Except pork), and occasional fast food and drink coffee. But I cut all that out decades ago.
Thank you , very informative.
Thank You - I have not tried kombucha yet but I am making my own ACV and also fermenting my vegetables - notably kraut also doing water kefir
I recently made the connection between drinking kombucha and getting a migraine and exacerbated dystonic symptoms the very next day! I still don’t know why, but I’m never touching the stuff again.
On the other hand, I love the taste of apple cider vinegar in some hot water with a little stevia after a meal, and I can definitely tell it makes a difference in preventing reflux after a bigger meal.

A histamine reaction, perhaps connected to fermentation?
Maybe you are sensitive to yeast?
I make my own apple cider vinegar and its so much different from what you can buy. Its easy do make at any home and i strongly reccomend it.
Hi I tried making some with the left over mother. I added organic apple juice to the leftover mother from a previous bottle. Left it to ferment and the mother started to turn white and smelt so bad I thought I did something wrong so I threw it away 😔
Curios how you make ACV, if you don’t mind sharing. 😊
Thank you Dr. The brix idea is a gift sent from heaven. I'm making kombucha by myself and was wondering how to make the process so that there would be almost no residual sugar, I don't mind the acidic taste. No I know, thank you.
Good info / A powerfully healing food that is often overlooked....
