I totally know the tea you are talking about. I buy bottles of it flavored at Whole Foods Store. I read the labels with all the amazing things it is supposed to do for you..... including help cure cancer. It seems like a miracle tea. It does smell a little like dirty boys socks because of all the live cultures which you can see strands of floating in there. But the flavors/juice they add to it seems to throw that off a little. A few weeks ago I did a Kombucha Tea fast for a day and felt great. The funny thing is that I was sitting at work, 3 teas later, on my lunch break and reading the labels. I was astonished to find that the tea had 1.5% alcohol content!!!! Then I suddenly thought.... huh, here I am trying to do a cleanse when actually I am basically drinking watered down beer!???? No wonder I felt so great! Just thought I would point that out. Through the fermentation process alcohol evolves. Not sure how much alcohol your home-brewed tea has?

Glad to see your back on track!! You are doing awesome!!
