I have been drinking Kombucha for about 2 month now. I started out by buying GT's Kombucha, which gave my tons of energy. But because this is the expensive way I started brewing my own and let it ferment for about 15 days because most of the beneficial health effects are supposed to be present only after 14-21 days of fermenting (which tastes very vinnegary). So, I decided to do the continuous brew. And this hit the nail on the head.

My degenerative arthritis is gone to 90% just after a few days, I have tons of energy again, my blood sugar went down to normal, I can sleep much better, and I feel overall very, very good.

I drink about 16 to 20 ounces a day. I had been drinking less before the continuous brew because it was too vinegary. It does what is said about it. However, obey the caution of starting out with only 4 oz. a day because you don't want the side effects of detoxifying too quickly. Also, research this on the internet. There are brewing instructions, recipes, history and health information.
