kombucha constipation

[docweathers]

I have read in a number of places that people take kombucha to treat constipation. my experience is that it very decidedly causes constipation. Does anyone else have an experience like this?

are there different kinds of composure that could cause these different responses. I make my own using green tea.

I started making it 6 months ago and never had an issue? I don't use green tea, just black, but that shouldn't be an issue. How much kombucha are you drinking a day?

Tea is a diuretic, so it's possible you're dehydrated?

I think your hypotheses are probably accurate. I was drinking about a quart a day. I have cut down to an 8 ounce glass per day. Hopefully that solves the problem.

Thanks for your guidance.

Absolutely. Cheers!
