Today's episode is all about exploring the fascinating history of kombucha. Get ready to dive into the origins of this ancient fermented beverage, as we uncover its roots that trace back thousands of years.

Humans and yeast have had a symbiotic relationship since the dawn of time, with yeast providing us with valuable products like beer, wine, and bread. While kombucha isn't specifically mentioned in historical records, its history aligns with the long tradition of fermentation. We'll explore the relationship between humans and microbes, specifically the dominant bacteria called acetobacter, which makes up more than 50% of kombucha and could even reach percentages as high as 75% to 90%.

But the story of kombucha doesn't just stop at its origins. We'll also explore its potential benefits, such as its ability to help eliminate toxins from the body. Discover how kombucha works its magic by bonding to toxic molecules and supporting the liver.
