May Aid Constipation

The Cleveland Clinic states that additional research is required before concluding that kombucha can balance healthy bacteria in the stomach and treat various gastrointestinal problems, despite being a possible source of probiotics.

A study that looked at the kombucha's microorganisms and was published in the journal Food Microbiology in April 2014 found that the beverage contained a "prominent lactobacillus population". Since kombucha contains the probiotic lactobacillus, it is conceivable that it will aid to regulate the digestive system and fend off infections and inflammation. And if so, the Cleveland Clinic reports that kombucha consumption may benefit irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel illnesses, bloating, and constipation.
