Fermbucha is an alcohol-free kombucha powder obtained by fermenting black tea through a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeasts (SCOBY*). This powder consists of the metabolites glucuronic acid and D-saccharic acid-1,4-lactone as well as other bioactive substances such as highly absorbable flavonoids that serve as SOD-like substances. It also contains specific polyphenols from black tea in their aglycon form.
*SCOBY = Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeast
Fermbucha™, the purest kombucha powder
The great benefit of fermentation
Contains the bioactive metabolites glucuronic acid (GlcUA) and D-saccharic acid-1,4-lactone (DSL)
GlcUA and DSL are the characteristic compounds produced during the fermentation process of kombucha. GlcUA is involved in the detoxification of xeno- and endo-biotics (such as pollutants, drugs or hormones) by undergoing hepatic glucuronidation.
Increased content of phenolic compounds as well as antioxidant activity
The content of total polyphenols and flavonoids of black tea increases after 21 days of fermentation with SCOBY at 28°C. During this controlled fermentation process, there is a breakdown of complex substances into smaller compounds. Consequently, the content of phenolic compounds in kombucha, as well as its antioxidant activity, increases.
Contains SOD-like substances
These are small plant molecules with a similar SOD-activity
These SOD-like substances are:
- easily absorbed by the body
- stable and resistance against gastric acid, bile salts and enzymes
- responsible for the elimination of O2.- or superoxide anion
Heat treatment after fermentation to ensure microbiological stability of the product
After controlled fermentation, Fermbucha™ is sterilized and filtered to ensure the microbiological stability of the product. Otherwise, this can lead to further changes in the composition of the ingredient due to metabolic activity of SCOBY microorganisms. As a result, the antioxidant activity and health-promoting properties may be significantly reduced.
