Strengthen the Immune System
Kombucha's benefits for gut health may also strengthen the immune system. It's crucial to understand how tightly connected the immune system and digestive system are; according to John Hopkins Medicine, the lining of the intestines produces antibodies that aid in protecting the body. According to a study, the gut houses a significant component of the immune system—more specifically, roughly 70% of it. A strong immune system is largely dependent on having a healthy gut. Due to the beneficial bacteria they contain, the fermenting bacteria in kombucha can increase immunity.
The main cause of death worldwide is heart disease. The "bad" LDL and "good" HDL cholesterol markers for heart disease can both be significantly improved by kombucha in as little as 30 days, according to tests on rats. Even more crucially, tea (particularly green tea) guards against the oxidation of LDL cholesterol particles, which is known to be a factor in heart disease. In fact, drinking green tea can reduce your risk of heart disease by up to 31%; this effect might also hold true for kombucha.
