My girlfriend drinks either Kevita or GTS brand Kombucha every day and likes the way it makes her feel. I've had IBS like symptoms on and off for a few years now (generally under control) and she convinced me to try it to see if it would help at all. Some people report it helping a lot with IBS.
I started with 8 oz ( half a bottle) for a few days and seemed fine, it actually made me feel good, energized. After about a week I noticed my stomach was always bubbly and I started to get what I can only describe as a gross stomach, like I had to use the bathroom 3-4 times a day. I stopped drinking it about a week ago and everything returned to normal after about 3 days being off it.
Today I decided to try a different flavor, drinking maybe 3-4 oz. Now mid day I'm starting to feel gross again.
Anyone else have issues like this with Kombucha? Did you have to ween yourself onto it, if so, how did you do it?
