What about Kombucha? Acceptable? Not acceptable?

Hi Alexa,
Is this a sea vegetable or the yeast drink? I'm not really familiar with it other than what I just read in Wikipedia about the yeast drink. Based on the alcohol content, I would say not acceptable for our food plan. although you may not be an alcoholic, alcohol is a very highly refined carbohydrate which can trigger the food allergy. Also, the sugar required for ferentation may be problematic as well as caffiene if it is mixed with tea.

Let me know if you have other questions - post them here or call me at 678-923-9452.

Love,
Kasey
