*cancer : Consumption of kombucha has been associated with lower cancer rates. Researchers believe it increases the immune system's anticancer defenses. It may prevent cancer proliferation at early stages of tumor growth due to its glucuronic, lactic, and acetic acid content, as well as its antibiotic compounds. It may have anticarcinogenic effects especially for hormone-dependent tumors. Cell studies suggest it may be useful for prostate cancer treatment and prevention. It's also been studied as an anticancer agent against human lung, osteosarcoma, and renal cancer cell lines.* stomach cancer : Healthy liver functions when it detoxifies properly, thereby aiding in cancer prevention. One of the benefits of kombucha tea is its ability to detoxify the body since it’s rich in enzymes and bacterial acids. Kombucha is also very high in Glucaric acid, which has been shown to prevent cancer.

* Endothelial Function : Oxidative stress can damage the lining of blood vessels. That damage is a precursor to atherosclerosis, and a threat to heart health. Antioxidants in kombucha help promote regeneration of cellular walls in blood vessels.
* Liver Function : Kombucha protects against liver toxicity in animals from overdoses of acetaminophen (Tylenol). Researchers suggest it might provide a useful therapy for humans as well.
* Nervous System : Kombucha contains several amino acids, methylxanthine alkaloids (caffeine, theophylline, and theobromine), ascorbic acid (vitamin C), and B vitamins (including folic acid-B9), necessary for normal metabolism in the nervous system. It can help with headaches, nervousness, and epilepsy prevention. It may also prevent depression in the elderly.
* Asthma : Daily kombucha may help asthma patients. It contains significant amounts of theophyline, a bronchodilator.[12] The treatment dose of theophyline is 0.18–1.0 g daily. Just one cup of kombucha contains about 1.44 mg.
*Joint Problems : Glucuronic acid in kombucha can be converted by the body into glucosamine, chondroitin-sulphate, and other polysaccharides and glucoproteins associated with cartilage, collagen, and the fluid that lubricates joints.[13] It may also help relieve arthritis, rheumatism, and gout.
* Antibiotic Resistant Infections : Kombucha contains strong antibacterials to combat infectious diseases such as diptheria, scarlet fever, influenza, typhoid, paratyphoid fever, and dysentery.[15] Its high total acidity makes it effective against Helicobacter pylori, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus, and Bacillus cereus. It's been suggested that kombucha may be an effective alternative to synthetic antimicrobials that are becoming increasingly ineffective.==Selected Products==[[File:5e382157b9952 40V Germline Kombucha 1L .jpg|200px|link=http://www.germline.fr/produits/kombucha/]]
