glucuronic acid

The glucuronic acid found in kombucha is produced when sugar is oxidized. Glucuronic acid is produced naturally in our liver and is responsible for the elimination of toxins.

Right-handed lactic acid

Just like succinic acid and glucuronic acid, dextrorotatory lactic acid is also a natural component of the human organism, but only in the active dextrorotatory L-form. The left-handed D-lactic acid, on the other hand, puts a strain on the human body. A lack of dextrorotatory lactic acid bacteria can, among other things, lead to a weakening of cell respiration.

The dextrorotatory lactic acid bacteria are often completely absent in the tissue of cancer patients. This lactic acid also causes the Influenced positively on the intestinal flora . The bacteria colonize the lower and middle sections of the small intestine and slightly acidify the environment in the intestine. This makes it harder for pathogens to spread.
