kombucha

This is really weird and I don’t know why it happens but any time i drink kombucha my muscles tense up really bad. My neck especially gets really stiff and the muscles in my shoulders tense up really bad then it moves down to my thighs and calves. It makes my calves and legs really tight and kind of tingle-ly i guess. It kind of scares me. I don’t like the feeling but i want to keep drinking it because its so good for you. But you think im so how allergy or is this normal? Has anyone else experienced this?

  • I drink the premade kind, I think the brand is GTS. I just had a small amount tonight and after drinking it I think it might be shocking my system because it is so cold. I drink most things a room temperature, except when I add frozen fruit to my smoothie but even then I blend it so long the blender kind of melts it.
    I just bought 2 bottles tonight so well see how its goes. I would really like to continue drinking it maybe it is just the carbination like mham suggested.

  • Ok so I tried it again. At first i was feeling fine and I really enjoy the taste so i drank the whole bottle. Later I went to the gym still feeling okay but a few other later (2 or 3 hours) I started feeling really weird sick to my stomach and like might throw up. I never did though thank goodness. Maybe Ill try it again in a few months or so but for now I think I shouldnt drink it…..any suggest on what I could replace it with?

  • Hello… this is sad but I recently discovered and heard about kombucha. From the first bottle I had I was in love! But I also got very bloated the first few times I had it. Smoothielove, what you’re experiencing could be that you need to get used to it or it is an allergy. Any adverse reaction you get to ANYTHING is an allergy and should stop use. What I would do is stay off of it fo a while and then slowly put it back into your diet to test yourself. See where that takes you. Overall, if you’re allergic to it you should stay away from it cause you’re body is most likely trying to tell you something. “One man’s food is another man’s poison.”
