Guest guest Posted January 25, 2001 Report Share Posted January 25, 2001 Most people suggest you start by taking about 20 ml a day to begin with as the body can take time to adjest to its " detoxifying " effects. After that u can increase it slowly. I have an intersting book on KT at the moment - " kombucha the miracle fungus by Harald Teitze. I havent started it yet but skimming it there are some herbal recipes which use KT as the liquid and add other herbs to it. I will let u know more as I read it Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
