the right name of ancient elixir is KOMBUCHA… And it is originally written as 'KOMBUCHA'.
Used as a last remedy for the maligning disease of Inkyo, the Emperor of Japan, by a doctor called Kombu, this elixir not only healed the emperor, but also spreaded all over the world by being revealed scientifically. Our attention to everything increasing ever in the earth planet where we live so distracts our concentration that it has made us not to notice many important things
in life due to the scattered thoughts covering in our brain. Kombucha is though one of those not noticed. When we received the book “Kombucha”, we started to search for the mushroom of this elixir with a healing nature in our country and asked for a sample from the foundation established for this purpose in United States. When we received this sample, we learnt that Kombucha has been available in Turkey, too (during Dardanelles war)...
According to the book you have, which is published by Kombucha Foundation in United States after long observations, it is known that Kombucha is drunk lifelong by the people of 'Kargasok' village, located in frontier zone of Russia-China, where this elixir is found, and the death takes place as late as 130 years, so it is named as "Immortality Remedy". We have always emphasized that Kombucha is not a drug, but a public tonic or syrup used for hundred of years. The first of everything may be dull, frightening or insecure. Kombucha will also be like that. 'Kefir' known as good for the stomach is also a public remedy. Now it is produced in the Laboratories of Ege University and sold officially. On the other hand “acupuncture” has been a treatment method applied in Far East for long years. When it is introduced to the west, everyone, especially scientists were got suspicious about it. But it is included in the science now. Kombucha is also used by a doctor scientifically for the first time. That is to say Dr. Kombu...It is named after it. Almost all of the people who used this remedy (regardless of their disease) got healed or showed healing symptoms. It was tested hundreds of times in America and with secure results obtained it was found suitable to be marketed to the world countries. We believe without doubt that Kombucha with its origin dating back to very ancient times will be used extensively for the health of the public in a more methodical and tested manner.
