The history of medicine mentions a Korean traveling physician by the name of KOMBU, who cured the Japanese Emperor INKO of a chronic gastric infection in AD 414.

The drink he concocted for the treatment of the monarch bears his name:  KOMBUCHA , which means: ”  Kombu tea”  .

The natural product that is Kombucha was considered a traditional remedy during the Tsing dynasty of the Chinese Empire (221 BC), 2000 years ago. It was attributed fortifying properties and healing virtues, especially during chronic gastric disorders.
