Guest guest Posted November 25, 2001 Report Share Posted November 25, 2001 Hi Alobar, I have to agree with you, to this day my whole family drinks gallons of KT, including vinegar made from KT (that is GREAT stuff for salads) all KT has done is made us healthier. IT has helped people that are friends and close family members with cancer, asthma, hepC, peptic ulcers and hietal hernia. Those are the ones that I have personal knowledge about. Cheers and good health to you. Elaine - " Alobar " <alobar Saturday, November 24, 2001 10:08 AM Re: kombucha tea ? > Let us say I doubt the site you found.
