Most common questions I get ...
1) "Doc, what BLOOD KETONE METER do you recommend?"
ANSWER: FORACARE: on.bozmd.com/fo... (Promo-code: Dr.Boz)
It's accurate and takes only ONE test-strip to get results. YES!!
2) "Doc, what can I have while fasting?"
Salt + water are best.
Salt: bit.ly/3bkpZMl (Promo code: DrBoz) Sounds weird but it's strangely satisfying.
Black coffee - I prefer cold brew coffee.

I put a coffee filter over my gallon jar to ferment. Adds protection yet allows it to still breathe
Exactly it’s perfect for letting in wild yeasties but keeping out bugs, pet hair n dust
Hehe, I don't like/drink coffee. My brother was helping me move and saw my coffee filters and asked why if I don't drink coffee do I have coffee filters - for covering my brewing kombucha, of course.🤔
I love homemade kombucha! I’m making my second batch now and I drink it on my eating days. FINALLY, after 5 years of eating keto I can finally use my honey again after I harvest it in my backyard!🐝. I’ve been a beekeeper for 9 years, but I gave my honey away to close friends and family the last few years. I also seen somewhere that the extra scobies can be used in the garden as a natural fertilizer. Thank you for the awesome video!🥰🐝
Our chickens love to eat leftover/extra scobies!
I have been brewing my own kombucha for about 12 to 15 years and never ever wash the Scobies. It weakens them to where they’re not as active 🤷🏻♀️
That is the WORST idea ever....it’s like washing your eyes with regular water....I’m sure that tap water has lots of chlorine to kill the starter!
Yep.. I hear you. You are right. I am wrong
The pellicle mat (what you're calling a scoby) is a byproduct. It is not even necessary to the kombucha brewing process. Try brewing without the pellicle mat and you will see, your kombucha will produce another pellicle mat!
@@te34 That's right.
Love kombucha! So does my now 6-year-old grandson!
I raw oyster the little scobys. Lol. The kids might like berries added to a 2nd ferment. I like hibiscus added to my black tea (50/50). Makes a great color too.
I love my home brewed kombucha! I like to get a good carbonation with my second ferment after I bottle. I love my little scobys from the bottle. That's the healthy part!
Previous to Ketosis O made my own & tried local brewed but both raised my body heat! I figured it was the sweetness & I’m sensitive to Black tea anyways. So I’ll be seriously careful and try only after my Keto sticks & blood sugars are lower. Overheated head at night is problematic; will try Glutathione beforehand. It’s easy to make as is fermented veggies.
I had no idea that Kombucha was so good for you! Now I have a keto drink to enjoy with my keto cookies.
Just drink plain water after to rinse your teeth. It's acidic so you can have a lot of dental erosion very easily if drunk every day for months.
Whole jar of honey
Whoa
Rather use sugar, waaaay cheaper and the rawness is gone once it simmers
Sugar is sugar is sugar
It might have a slightly different flavour, but it's a bit of a waste of honey for sure!
I have shelves of honey. Bee hives are on the farm ..
@@DoctorBoz ah gotcha
This series has been very informative.
Interesting process. I was a fan of making milk kefir. It’s similar to making kombucha
Kefir is easier but I now have done it for so many years it’s in my brain! 😂 I brew two 2.5 gallons in my continuous brewers each week!
@@kyliefan7 would you lease share how you make your kefir? Is it water kefir or milk?
What’s a continuous brewer?
I used to brew water kefir
I used to brew my own but lately I've been buying the Kirkland brand. Trying my new Keto-Mojo I just checked my blood sugar before and 30 minutes later, it jumped from 59 to 144. I've not used honey before, but I'll have to check the ph of what I'm buying.
This is typical reaction to the blood sugars of many people I take care of.
Some of Dr Boz’s points are different from other kombucha brewers. No matter, there’s a lot of flexibility in this
In my experience, if there is a fruit fly within 10 miles of me, it would find my kombucha, and once infested I don’t think the scoby can be saved. Always cover it with a dish towel, or even a coffee filter.
Michelle, I already see your face slimming down💜
Since kombucha all the way processed has carbs. How much homemade Kombucha can I drink a day?
Thank you for sharing!!! Where do you get or make scoby? Also what is the serving size and the number of carbs for tracking?
You can ask around in a local Facebook group if anyone has one to share. And they say you can get a bottle of plain kombucha from a store and you can grow your own but it takes longer to do it that way. If you find someone to give you one then ask for 2cups of starter/liquid to go with it.
Fermented honey is Meed.
She cooks it.
She wasn’t making fermented honey.
I love you Dr Boz but you need to read the Big Book of Kombucha from Hannah Crum. Not a good idea to ever wash your scobies! Actually not a good idea to wash hands with regular water if you don’t then wipe in vinegar before handling them. Also flavored tea is bad for them and you could have mold issues. If you do that’s why. Also they need to be covered in a coffee filter and rubber band.
Good tips. Likely answers to some of my past struggles
@@DoctorBoz Her book is a good read as it goes way into kombucha history and uses and other fermented foods!
I love kambocha but stopped buying it because of the sugar. I might try to make some. Can you set it in a sunny spot to help warm it? Or set it outside in the summer?
It's fun
Ginger kombucha? How much ginger? Need to put in after (2nd ferment like a fruit) or can add at beginning?
I always add it to second and use a nickel size slice. I don’t think it really matters the size
I can see where boiling honey kills anything that might compete w scoby. But then why honey? Bc it's not processed other than pasteurized?
It’s free to me. A farm full of bee hives.
AHA! Perfect reason
Where can we get the SCOBY? In the 80s it was called Kargasok tea.
Question: If honey is an antibiotic in effect, will it have an impact on the scoby bacteria?
I got mine from a Hutterite colony. I give away my extra to anyone in my area that asks... to restart the whole process I’d use the kombutcha from the store ...
The honey works for me
Is Kombucha particularly good for a keto diet since you’re not eating fruit? Like you’re needing it because you don’t have the natural fermenting effect of fruit?
What's your opinion on pregnancy and kombucha?
When making kombucha with honey...it is actually call Jun.
Hey honey is pure sugar? Increases insulin as per Dr. Berry & Dr. Eric
the bacteria & yeast eat it so there is very little left after fermentation
How many carbs in homemade product
Isn't Kombucha high in carbs?
No the sugar is fermented and gas released, SCOBY eats the sugar, not the drinker.
That's. Why. She's. Fermenting. It. Until. Very. Acidic
I never knew kombucha is keto friendly 😮😮😮
You ladies are working too hard. I ferment jun, which is kombucha's smoother cousin; it's also known as champagne kombucha. My SCoBY produces a gallon a week from a brew of 4 tsp of good, loose green tea, 1 cup of local honey and a piece of dried seaweed in 24 oz of hot water. Jun ferments faster than kombucha at a more forgiving temperature within a week; I use a 5qt pickling crock covered with a 1/4 piece of hemmed flour sack cloth. I use leftover jun for vinegar applications, so it's plenty tart. My SCoBYs calve like crazy so I know that they are happy. I drink it straight with Redmond salt.
I tested my blood glucose before and 30 minutes after for a 10 point drop, my ketones dropped .1 point. That test was 10 undiluted ounces with no sweeetener or flavor added.
Oh.. that’s good. I’m trying this
Never heard of adding seaweed to a jun ferment. What is the purpose or reason to do that?
Also, where in the brewing process do you add the salt?
Could you please share the brand of ph tester you’re using? Please
I should have done that. I will look and post
I love kombucha but I am nervous about getting thrown out of ketosis
How much can be drank in a day?
Depends on the pH of the kombutcha... and how “healthy” your mitochondria are. Watch your numbers after you drink it
Why honey? Sweevy?
My mother believed that this helped her heal up a ruptured appendix the doctors refused to take out in her late 70,s.
Its benefit was to beef up the immunity system so while the appendix was still leaking into the gut the doctors wouldn't operate. 3 months later rupture healed and I believe its still in there.
Scooby made with honey?
😎
The thing she is calling a SCOBY is actually a pellicle mat or a byproduct of the kombucha starter which is actually the scoby. SYMBIOTIC CULTURE OF BACTERIA AND YEAST.
The scoby is in the pellicle mat but it not the scoby. You must have the SCOBY starter liquid in order to brew kombucha. The pellicle mat is not even necessary. You can toss that puppy out, cut it up and toss it in your mulch or snack on it. Just don't feed it to your dog, cat or other animals because it has caffeine in it from the tea!
Using honey with green tea will eventually make "Jun" not kombucha.
I think some of Y'all can drink diet Mountain Dew it might not hurt y'all
try hogging some of it
Great big EWWWW. Just dont think I can do it. I want to but I dont think I will. I also dont understand how we are on Keto and putting an entire jar of honey in the mix. This was suppose to replace her sweet tea fix. Looks more like aiding and abetting. Do I understand the sugar makes the bacteria then the bacteria eats the sugar?
Yes.. fermentation of tea processes the sugar through the bacteria. Measure the pH of the tea to test your brew. Measure your blood numbers (ketones and glucose) to know how your body is handling the kombutcha
What's a Scooby?
SCOBY stands for symbiotic colony of bacteria and yeast. The scoby “eats” the sugar and makes the kombucha.
So many mistakes on this video pls don't follow this.
It looks disgusting
That’s what my kids say too
