Can drinking Kombucha Tea change the acidity of the blood?
Kombucha is acidic (about pH 3, from organic acids ) but the acid/base chemistry in your body is most influenced by CO2 in your blood, with its associated buffering forms (HCO3–H2CO3) –etc. This is a dynamic system that is working constantly with every breath since it involves CO2 transfer in the lungs. Your body doesn’t really need help in regulating body pH, it’s hard to see how ingestion of a relatively small amount of liquid with organic acids, going into an even more acidic stomach, would influence body pH much anyway.
