I just saw on the net yesterday, namely that one should go easy on Kombucha in mercury detox.

I had heard it detoxed mercury but never dreamed it was so powerful at that as to cause detox symptoms. I had been going by the "more is better" theory with Kombucha. Now I know, a little is better.

Below is a post from the Tea Forum by Recovering, which I found today giving confirmation.... I make and use kombucha. I'm not able to take it in a normal sized dose. Its a powerful detoxifier and I still have lots of mercury in my body. Kombucha moves mercury faster than my body can handle.

October Challenge: Home Brew Kombucha

October usually means more time indoors. It is a darker time in our house and a time of more consistent temperatures as we turn the heat back on. Often October signifies the return of comfort foods and a return to the kitchen after a long summer spent cooking outside and making meals with minimal prep.

As you shuffle back into a darker kitchen and spend a little more time actually using your kitchen this fall, I have an easy challenge for you, brew some kombucha. This is an incredibly simple and incredibly healthy drink to make. You can refer to my "ode to kombucha" and preparation instructions or read my additional thoughts on brewing kvasses, but I will also provide some simple instructions here.
