I recently got to try a new product “Ciara’s Great Tasting Kombucha Tea”

Ruth Patras the President of Happy Liver Inc. has a really interesting story to tell about Kombucha. Having an online Fitness Store (FitnessShop.TV) I try to stay up on many of the new products and herbal remedies on the market, but when my wife Jennifer asked me, “Have you even heard of Kombucha?” I said, “What?” So she said it again, “Kombucha!” I just looked at her and said, “No never heard of it.” Jennifer had just come home from a long weekend away with her girlfriends and Ruth is one of her friends . Jennifer said, “I have to tell you her daughter Ciara’s story.”

So before I tell you about Ciara, let me start by telling you  a little about Kombucha since many of you, like me, have never heard of it.

Kombucha is a healthful, living enzyme beverage. It’s traditionally made with tea and sugar. Kombucha tea has been widely touted to strengthen the immune system by balancing the metabolism and providing detoxification through the liver. Kombucha tea is also effective in facilitating the digestive process and improves your liver function, immune system, body alkalinity, respiratory system, and circulation. It’s also been reported to provide increased energy, decreased appetite, and healthier skin and hair.

Where does Kombucha come from? The  exact origin of Kombucha is mysterious and unknown. However, as far back as the Chinese Tsin Dynasty in 221 BC, a beverage made from tea and sugar was revered as “K’un Pa Chu’a, a tea like wine,” and was reputed to have near-magical healing powers. It is believed by many that this was Kombucha.

Here is Ciara’s Story: Ciara was eight weeks old when diagnosed with the “Progressive Liver Disease”, also known as  Biliary Atresia.  Ciara’s doctors informed her parents that she would likely be in need of a liver transplant before her third birthday.  Out of extreme desperation, her mother, Ruth Patras began giving Kombucha to Ciara at the tender age of just 9 weeks old in an attempt to strengthen her immune system and aid the success of her Kasai procedure, (the removal of the atretic biliary ducts outside the liver and the attachment of the small intestine directly to the liver). Ciara,  is now 14 years old and has been drinking Kombucha religiously ever since and has never even come close to needing a transplant. Friends and family have long asked Ruth to bottle the same miracle drink that she makes for Ciara at home. They have repeatedly expressed concern that because there isn’t a convenient and good tasting Kombucha product available, people won’t be able to have the same great results.  After 14 years of extensive research on the positive affects of Kombucha, Ruth has finally fulfilled her friends and Family’s requests and Ciara’s dream.

Ruth Patras has been helping children all around the world by donating her services, and speaking on the positive affects of Kombucha, as well as giving Kombucha to those in need.

Having to make it for a child she knew that making it taste good would have to be a priority. After sampling some of the other Kombucha products that are currently out in the market place, family members and friends started to urged Ruth to make her Kombucha available to the public. Ruth said “YES” but she said, I will only make it with the same standards that I have used for Ciara, “If I can’t give what I make to my own daughter then I will never give it to anyone else.” So once we find a way to do that then we will make it available to everyone!

I am happy to report to everyone that day is here. Ruth also pledged that for each and every bottle of Ciara’s Great Tasting Kombucha sold, a donation is made to liver research.
