Good Lifestyle

There is no denying thatkombucha Increased in popularity - it is easily available in a variety of different, traditional and specialized grocery and health stores. But if you still do not know exactly what Kombucha is or what the media hype is all about, we have answers. Registered dietitianKatey Davidson, MSC, RDExplains that Kombucha is actually a tea rich in antioxidant that contains probiotics, and because probiotics are important to maintain good intestinal health, it is behind the growing-community nutritionist belief that drinking this fermented tea is a good idea.

However, Davidson notes that a major problem with many Kombucha brands is their sugar content; Some contain 14 grams per serving. In addition, Davidson warns that a portion is often more like a half-bottle, so you can tell you a lot of calories if you are not paying attention.

Several companies start at home on the problem of sugar, includingHumme, which unveiled twoFlavors Kombucha with low sugar With five grams of sugar per serving (about half a bottle) and, while other Humm flavors tend to contain eight grams of half-bottle sugar, the company plans to reduce fruit in new beverages to 'Reach this new total low. The new flavors,Ginger juniper andRaspberry hops, give your lover in medium kombuha a kick of creative flavor, in addition to a boost ofprobiotics.

Davidson explains that Kombucha requires that the sugar be closed, so for those who try to be more aware of their sugar consumption, the lower quantity found in this product can be useful. "However, the difference in sugar [in the new Humm offer] is not very big, I therefore recommend that you look at the size of the portions on anything," she says.

It also recommends starting slowly. Because Kombucha is fermented, it is known to cause gastrointestinal disorders, such as bloating. She also adds that you should not rely on her as a constant source of probiotics. "If you like Kombucha, I do not see anything wrong with drinking from time to time," said Davidson. "With regard to probiotics, try to move them from a variety of foods, such as jumping, yogurt, kefir and kimchi."

These two new flavors are available in selecting stores in the Northeast and Northwestern Pacific, with a larger expansion planned over the next year. Check them in your local grocery store and give them to the taste of these new Kombucha flavors!
