Hi, I have hypothyroidism and I read your comment regarding not drinking kombucha if you suffer from thyroid issues. Can you elaborate why? I’m very curious because I have become quite fond of kombucha

I have noted benefits in the consumption of Kumbucha in losing weight. With the fact that I started at a weight of over 300 lbs, was diabetic, plus had noted that increased consumption of polyphenols was trimming me down, giving me more energy, and balancing my blood sugar. Well it is I can say that I am a cheerleader for the drink.

I’ve been fascinated by kombucha and the fermented foods movement in general. It’s clear that more research is needed into the health benefits (isn’t that always the case?). There is considerable potential in these foods and it’s easy to see how they could offer health benefits.

It’s also nice to see them becoming more mainstream – meaning you can drink kombucha even if making it for yourself isn’t practical.

In reply to Kerry O'Toole. It's hard to tell. If you use it and have no issue then it should be okay.

So, can I ascertain from this article that people with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis should not use Kombucha?
