Kombucha, maya ve asetik asit bakterilerinin simbiyotik ilişkisi neticesi tatlandırılmış siyah çayın geleneksel fermentasyonudur. Sağlık üzerine muhtemel etkileri Kombucha’ya olan ilginin artmasına yol açmaktadır. Bu derlemede, biz Kombucha’nın bazı bileşenlerinin özelliklerine ışık tutan çalışmaları ortaya koyduk. Böylece, Kombucha’nın karmaşık mekanizmalarının daha iyi anlaşılması sağlanabilir ve sağlık üzerine Kombucha’nın etkileri hakkında yeni çalışmalar üretilebilir
