This article focuses on two distinct, yet often discussed, fermented products. The first is a beverage created by fermenting sweetened tea with a SCOBY (symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast). The second is a liquid produced from fermented apple cider, known for its acidic properties. Both have gained popularity in recent years due to perceived health advantages.
These products have historical significance spanning centuries and diverse cultures. They are consumed for purported benefits ranging from improved digestion and gut health to potential antioxidant effects. Scientific research into these claims is ongoing, and the evidence base is continually evolving. The perceived advantages contribute to their widespread incorporation into wellness routines.
